    Oakwood

    This handy little shop is somewhat of a chameleon, in so far as it seems to fit several categories…read more It is all at once a post office, bargain booze and newsagents which is perhaps a bizarre mix but it's certainly useful in such a little town as Oakwood. It's quite a small shop but nonetheless I've never seen it particularly heaving, so if you are nipping through and need to post a parcel I can imagine this being a rather modest and simple task - certainly nothing like the hell of using the town post office, that's for sure! They sell all kinds of cheap booze deals, which is great for anyone living locally too. As well as that there are all the snacks, crisps, confectionary, stationary and other related newsy items that you could hope for. My favourite part is their uber, and I mean uber, awesome little sweet bags for £1. You get *loads* of delicious penny sweets in a huge bag for just a quid! Penny-sweet-tastic. The shop on the whole is reasonably friendly, certainly the chap at the counter was nice enough if nothing else. All in all, pretty handy to know about!

    Now I've got to prove to the world that I'm not a Special Brew swilling tramp who frequents parks…read moreand is partial to sleeping on benches. However, I will continue to fuel those rumours by my love of this Bargain Booze. Let me put this into perspective. Sometimes you want cheap booze but you also want cheap quality booze. Well this little beauty priovides the two. It's also useful for loads of stuff, getting rid of your letters and stocking up on some alcohol soaking snacks. I love my posh emporiums, I really do. From time to time though Bargain Booze fits the bill and this one especially. Maybe it's because it is en route to several of my friends houses or maybe it's because I actually am a tramp. Oh well, tramps these days have way too much access to the internet. I'll go find a dog to worry and some people to scare now but first up I'll get myself a fine bottle of red or even meths if I'm pushing the boat out. In all seriousness though this is a good stop off joint.

    This is a small, simple off licence that has a good selection of beers, wines and spirits…read more It's clean and tidy, with a small range of magazines and basic groceries. A perfect place to pop in and get some of those bare essentials on your way home.

    This is one of very peculiar streets in Northern Quarter. A mile-long Tib Street runs from the…read morejunction of Oldham Road and Swan Street down to Market Street, where it is flanked by Debenhams and Starbucks. Affectionately known as "cats and dogs street", Tib Sr used to house a good number of pet shops. Sadly, the last pet shop was forced to close in 2002. Since then "pet" acquired a more intimate meaning, in the proper sense of the word: the number of adult shops in the street and on its corners is, well, astounding. It is still possible, I suppose, to call it "cats and dogs street" or "pet paradise", but with entirely differently meaning attached... Of course, there is more to Tib St than shop windows with X-rated videos and sexual paraphernalia. My main destination in Tib St between 2005 and 2006 was CSV Media Clubhouse, at the top of the street, close to Hydroponics shop on the corner. CSV Media Clubhouse provides training and courses for those who want to acquire various skills in Broadcast Media, from radio to TV and filming. Opposite the door there is a peculiar graffiti wall, commemorating Tib St as it was, with lots of pet shops. Other notable doors in Tib St include: Olivier Morosini hairdressing salon; Thornley Groves estate agency; Rags to Bitches famous vintage shop; Matt & Phred's jazz club; The Northern pub; the Army Shop; Centro bar; Simple bar; Hedonist hair salon; and Sacha's Hotel. Affleck's Palace occupies the corner of Church St and Tib St. Abakhan Fabrics, the Mancunian Mecca for all things sewing and knitting, is planted on the corner of Warwick St and Tib St, opposite The City pub. Warwick St also connects Tih St and Oldham St. And one more unique feature about Tib St. As you walk up and down, you will notice pavement blocks with lines tiled on them. Take a moment to read them: they are the lines by the renowned Lemn Sissay, a poet who marked Manchester by his talent before jetting off to London (due to family, not for fame, as he insists). He was a guest at 2009 Manchester International Festival, and there are several places in the city where you can read his poems, but Tib St must be the most daring one. The poem is called Flags.

    I have never been so impressed at entering a new shop as I have here…read more.. The staff were warm and welcoming allowing us to try as many things as we liked, with no pressure. The concept of Demijohn is that of a liquid deli, selling both vinegars and oils for your cooking, as well as wines and spirits for afterwards. You buy your bottle from them, due to EU regulations, but you can then fill it with anything you like, and take it back for refills. The staff were incredible friendly and welcoming, allowing us to try many different products, even after we'd chosen what we were having, as well as advising us on various combinations we could try. If you're ever in York you simply have to try this place!

    From the owner: Demijohn is unique - both its method of selling, which is similar to the continental markets, and…read morethe products it sells, which are all carefully sourced from small producers around the UK. Many of the liquids are only available at Demijohn and are as unusual and distinctive as the British culture. Visiting Demijohn is better than a trip to a bar as customers are encouraged to taste the products before their purchase is bottled for them in the shop. The staff are more than sales people - they are passionate about the quality of the liquids and the provenance. Such is their passion they even close the shops occasionally and all head to the hedgerows to collect elderflowers for Elderflower Vinegar or sloes for the Sloe Gin. Demijohn doesn't just sell alcohol. One whole area of the shop is devoted to unusual vinegars and oils. With flavours such as rich red Bramble Vinegar from Perthshire or beautiful, first class extra virgin olive oil from a small estate in Tuscany. Wild Bullace has only a little left, so get there quick and Rhubarb Vodka is back on tap.... Come and try!

Whenever you enter this shop, day or night, weekday or weekend, it is likely to be full of students stocking up on some of the bargain deals which apply to beer, wine and spirits. However, this is more than just a Bargain Booze styled offie aimed at giving students their cheap fix. It actually stocks a jaw droppingly huge amount of varied spirits, especially vodkas, of which there is an incalculable amount coming from all over the globe. It's hugely popular, not just because of the fact it sells the answer to life's problems with such style and honesty, but also because of how friendly and unique the characters behind the counter are. Brilliant.

Even if you don't want to buy and alcohol i'd pop in just to be entertained for a few minutes. I like trying different spirits and here I can try a large selection of different ones from around the world at a snip of the price you'd find in a supermarket or 'rhytham and booze' type joint. I'm a fan of red wine and there's always deals on this here too. It really is always bustling with students stocking up on deals and bargains. If you're having a party and need to stock up then i'd definitely have a look into this place above the other alcohol shops in Leeds. Your purse will thank you for it.
