Officeworks on Portrush Road at Trinity Gardens is my stand out Officeworks store. Sure, many of…read moretheir products are similar to those on offer at all Officeworks, nevertheless this one is my fave - and its actually not even the closest one for me. What makes this one stand apart from all the others? I think the printing service at Trinity Gardens is first class. They are always prompt and will let you know if there's a delay in getting your job done. I also think the staff here are super helpful. There is one older man in particular who has helped me in the past and I often see him helping other customers take oversized items out to their cars. It may sound pretty obvious but not all shops offer this really basic service.

Officeworks used to be a much better place for designers like myself to get some supplies, but…read moretheir range of quality pens and technical paper seems to be dwindling. They do still stock some copic markers and staedtler items so not all is lost. They also have a pretty easy to use photo printing service which I really should use more because printed photos are cool. Their ink prices for printers is still exorbitant and I'd rather just go to the library and print or buy ink off the internet, and they sell really crap knock of designer furniture like plastic versions of classic Eames chairs so that sucks. It would be great if Officeworks had a design section with rolls of paper, bleed proof paper and Copic marker refills for pen and paper nerds like me, but like another reviewer said, they are the "bunnings of stationery" and like bunnings, woolworths etc, they only stock what is economical for them, not necessarily the best products for the end user.

It's no secret that I really love kikki.K ... and it's great to see yet another store!…read more I'm not a fan of Burnside Shopping Centre, but we came here on the way home from somewhere else to have lunch and it was with great excitement that I spotted kikki.K! As with every other kikki.K store, this is beautifully set out in order to make you want to buy every single item in the store ... it's a challenge (for me) keeping in control ;) They have literally thought of everything - menu planners, gorgeous pens, stylish staplers, photo albums, notebooks, dream diaries ... in fact, everything you can possibly think of to note down and inspire you (except perhaps many BLANK notebooks ... they prefer to give you suggestions on every page!). Everything is fairly pricey, but very well made and aesthetically pleasing ;) As with every kikki.K store I have visited, the staff are very friendly and helpful without being overbearing - they must have very good customer service training here!
