This has to be the cheapest newsagent in the city. Do you remember when Mars Bars were like 26p and…read morechewing gum was 19p then it started to creep up until in recent years it has clambered so high that you won't even get much change from a pound for a lot of choccy bars? Well, this shop is thankfully bucking the trend selling choccy bars for the 35 - 50p mark, crisps and even drinks the same. What's more, the staff are really lovely and polite. I've just got a job near this shop and I'm sure I'll be saving loads ever month because the stock is reasonably priced (I used to work near McColls on Temple Way). Avon News also has a good mix of newspapers and magazines and greetings card for that last minute panic when you realise you've forgotten your mum's birthday (never done it myself, thankfully).

What a wonderfully jolly man to greet you as you go in! The owner is so friendly and makes you feel…read moreright at home (even in a newsagent). He always has something funny to say about the weather...it's never as warm as India! Laughing at me as I walked in drenched and looking like a drowned rat, he had no shame in telling me all about the sun, the heat and the warm evenings he enjoys back at home. Weather aside, the shop is really good for fruit and veg, alcohol supplies and the general items you expect to find in a newsagent. I usually come in here for water, which I usually resent buying, but the bottled water is sooooo cheap here- around 30p.

Good little newsagents and pleasant staff. Always helpful and generally has things you'd expect a…read morenewsagent to have.

This newsagents shop is so much bigger than it looks from the outside!! I visited it twice today on…read moretwo different occasions (the first time to buy a paper and the second to browse) and I was impressed by the good service and very large selection of newspapers and magazines. Everything is laid out so nicely too in a very eye-catching way with unusual curved display racks going down the centre of the floor space. In addition to papers and mags, there are plenty of local books, stationery (including school/college items), and, around the corner at the back, good quality greetings cards. Some jigsaws for sale as well and a full range of confectionery.

It's a great newsagents,well stocked and displayed nicely , equipped with everything one needs, yet…read morethe staffs curt and standoffish behaviour is less desirable. They are so rude,inpolite and miserable that they made my partner & myself feel very uncomfortable.NO please & thank you's were mentioned ,it takes nothing to show a few manners especially whilst dealing & working with the public. How do these people get jobs? they make victor meldrew look happy. It's a shame as the shop itself is very good,but the employee,s have really put me off.

I do love Star News and Booze. Not only does it boast an impressive selection of news items,…read moreconfectionery and tobacco, but the staff are open and friendly. Having caught a late train back to Bristol one night, I popped in here for some milk and bread on my way home. It turned out I was 30p short, but the guy behind the till turned a sympathetic blind eye and let me off - an act of good will that rarely happens in supermarket chains. If you are a fan of penny sweets, Star News and Booze also boasts an impressive selection of the 'old school' variety. Furthermore, you'll often find discounted cider and larger in here too. Indeed, if you're a cider fiend and are in the area, you won't find an outlet that sells cheaper cider than this place - nope, not even Asda Bedminster...

What makes this newsagents stand out is its huge selection of cards - birthday, anniversary, congratulatory, well-wishing, all can be found here. Many a time I have walked into university and forgotten to send a birthday card, so this newsagents has been a saving grace!

City Life is a similar magazine in some respects to Cardiff Life in that it caters for the higher…read moreend of the market in both editorial and advertising. However, there are some very distinct differences. For one, City Life is free... (although, so is Cardiff Life essentially... if you read the advertisers section you'll realise that it's delivered to 7k homes for free and then given to a further 3k establishments around the city... they have a production run of 10k). City Life Magazine is also produced in Cardiff... check out the three line address! There's three Cardiff's in there... one for each line! The ethos of City Life is also a bit more transparent... they use a William Foster quote to sum it up: Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

I think there's only one newsagents in Neath Market, but I hope I'm reviewing the right one! I know…read morethis newsagents as Rees and Sons and it's been there for years. Now run by Martin and Liz, who are very friendly and helpful couple. There's a wide selection of magazines and newspapers, but I usually visit them to stock up on cake decorating supplies. Liz expanded onto this area of goods after going to cake decorating classes in Neath College. She stocks a good range of materials to decorate cakes. You can also hire cake tins if you want to bake your own. I would have no hesitation in recommending a visit to this place - you'll get a warm welcome (even on a cold day in the Market!).
