I just love the name of this shop, I mean I've just no idea where they got their inspiration from…read more *looks mystified* Hehe!! It's based in Govan Cross Shopping Centre and is very handy for lots of bits and bobs. So when I was in work and I took a wee notion for a can of ginger I was straight out that door. They usually have a special deal for 4 cans of Barrs for a £1, I always get my favourite Raspberryade. Slurp! It's just the best! Mmm satisfied! The guys in there are always pleasant and the shelves always kept stocked especially with Barrs products. They usually have good deals on as well, so if you're stuck for any of your grocery needs Grocers R Us can normally sort you out.

You'll find the City News newsagents on Renfield Street next door to Pret a Manger. It's quite a…read morelarge newsagents, and boasts a good selection of papers and magazines as well as sweets, chocolates, drinks and crisps. It's ever-so-slightly dark and dingy in there - it could probably do with a good clean - but you'll find pretty much exactly what you went in for, and at a less-than-extortionate price. Do remember that the man who works there is a man of a few words - so don't expect to be greeted like an old friend.

The Milngavie Minimarket is in a funny little building (appropriately, I suppose, considering the…read morename, that it is actually in a mini building). It would perhaps be fair to say that this little shop isn't the most salubrious of places. It's a little bit, dare I say it, tatty. However, it has a fairly good selection of groceries and necessities. It's also well placed to serve much of the residential Milngavie area. You wouldn't be able to do a substantial shop here by any means, but it is useful to pick up the occasional bits and pieces.

They also do a very reasonable portion of biryani which is an easy dinner if you are in the pollokshields east area. I'm a regular!
