What on Earth happened to Kmart since I was a kid? Whatever it is - it's a good thing. No wait, a…read moregreat thing! I had my school's swimming carnival on Wednesday. Tuesday evening was the prime time I decided to search for a green shirt to wear (school spirit and all). I left Kmart after a 15 minute trip (including parking) holding a $3 shirt. THREE DOLLARS. What. Even. So you want a bargain? Go to Kmart. Honestly. I don't even understand. I also bought my lady a pie machine for Christmas from there. I'm hoping she won't read this, but it was $12 and it's fantastic. So impressed. Kmart also has self serve checkouts for those who like, as well as normal checkouts. The staff on the door I've noticed are quite nice. There's also a Kmart Tyre and auto. If you weren't aware Kmart is actually in Toombul shopping centre, conveniently close to the undercover parking. If you've not been to Kmart for a while, as I hadn't, you really must take a look.

If there were any shopping centre in need of a desperate makeover, it would be Brookside. The…read moreinside is still quite nice, with carpetted flooring and a Myer, even a supa IGA, but you can tell that over the years, whilst awesome in its heyday... it is time. There is a really daggy foodcourt, with only a few shops, the shops range from your Target, Loot, Myer and Donut King to antique gifts and miscellaneous stuff by Anthea. Whatever the case, this northside icon, needs a facelift. A little bit daggy, a little bit worn. But it's still got that certain je nais c'est quois of the Northside.

Brookside isn't really my closest or most convenient shopping centre but it offers an interesting…read moremix of shops and that is what draws me to it on a weekly basis. There is convenient parking (inc. undercover), Woolworths, Myer, multiple cafés, clothing stores, EB Games, Chemist, Big W, Nail Salons, Bottle Shops, Bakeries, Shoe Stores, Barber & Hairdressers, Jewellers, Doctors, Banks and everything in between. You can literally come and run your errands and have a wonder around too. If you're someone like me who has a lot of time on their hands, that sort of thing is important to you. Brookside is a real gem!

Kmart is as Kmart does. I mean, they sell K's right? Uh…read more.. It's a department store like any other. This specific one hasn't done anything that raises it above or lowers it below any other I've been to. What should you be after if you head to Kmart? Auto and home stuff. If you don't want to go anywhere else and you need a tshirt with your toaster than go for it. Pet stuff? Check. Toys? Yeah, sure. I guess they have everything, but... I mean really if you're after something specific of a high quality you're in the wrong place. But if you're after household items at a pretty good price than you're in the right place. As far as service goes I'm sure it depends on who you get. You've got the normal mix of part time high schoolers and the older mob who have been here for years. I'm sure a mix of these are good with their customer service skills, too. I'd say the selling point of this Kmart is the fact that it's in the shopping centre. So either it can act as your last resort, or if you can't find what you need there then there's always somewhere nearby. Huzzah!

Your customer service leaves a lot to be desired when I can`t purchase goods from your store and go…read morethrough a checkout, not self service. Went to buy $100.00 worth of product on Thursday night but had to go through self service, not going to happen. Put staff on to provide this service, and don`t advertise anything about the customer service you provide, because there isn`t any. This occurred at your Aspley store.

Who doesn't like a discount store that sells those little bits and bobs that you need around the…read morehome or for some random occasions? I've noticed that a lot of these types of stores popping up now in these times of purse pinching. Super Variety Discount is a store that will probably have those odd things you seek. If I've ever needed a moneybox or a set of cheap tools and I'm way shallow in the money stakes, I've gone here. Sometimes it's kind of a guilty pleasure when I've got like $2 to spare and I want to find something value for money even if in the end it's a cheap pair of pluggers that will last me a weekend. Be away though, you get what you pay for. Ok, lets be real here, the stuff that you buy here is probably not of the high standard that you'd expect from a major retailer and more than likely the goods are made in some third world country children's sweatshop. Sometimes we forget these things for the deal. Also, for those who like a good toke on the tobacco leaf, there is a cabinet full of smoker's paraphernalia. Get in there before their all gone.

Aspley Village Shopping Centre is a hidden treasure that I honestly don't want to tell anyone…read moreabout. Less than 3km away is Chermside Shopping Centre with its busy crowds and horrible parking situation, yet Aspley Village still remains a calm and serene shopping experience. It was always quiet, there is ample undercover parking and you don't have to battle with crowds. And this is bliss, when all I want to do is some grocery shopping. I am noticing the crowds are slowly starting to grow on weekends, but I think we've got a while before it becomes anything like Germside. The Coles supermarket is clean and new and well laid out, Patton's Big Guns has all your fruit & veg, deli and butcher needs met, there's a Malouf Chemist and a bottle shop. What else could you need? Well there's also a florist, a bakery, a fish and chip takeaway/seafood monger, a cafe, a couple of fashion stores and the complex is also home to a Medical Centre, Sunshine Kebabs and Outback Jack's Steakhouse.

North-West Plaza works for me as a local. Not only can I do my grocery shopping at Woolies, but…read moreyou have access to an organic butcher & drygoods store. Add to that all the essentials of a Medical Centre, Chiropractor, Travel Agent, Bakery, Bottleshop, Greengrocer, Gym, Pharmacist, The Reject Shop and a few food outlets and really you don't need much else for your week to week needs. Parking is never an issue, whilst there is a restriction upstairs of 30 minutes you also have the option of under cover which allows 3 hours. As a local shopping centre this is a well organised one with the right facilities which minimises the running around to get my chores done. For all of us with busy lifestyle's that can only be a winner!

North-West Plaza is a handy spot in a central location. It has your essentials like Woolworths, a…read morePharmacy, Greengrocer, Butcher, Bottle Shop and ATM's but then it also has unexpected gems. The Rejected Shop is a great addition, it is a rare find in nowadays and you'll be surprised at the useful products they provide on the cheap as well as having my all time favourite Sushi Train 'Crazy Fish Sushi' which is quite new to the location. You can't lose shopping at North-West Plaza PLUS it saves you driving to Brookside, Chermside or Stafford!
