I do a hell of a lot of shopping at pretty much ever Rivers shop I come across. Although my favourites are the regional clearance centres, this one is probably one of the best stores I've been to in a city. It's a pretty big store, with plenty of stock on hand. There's a great range of clothing. I was just in there the other day, and walked out with a new tee shirt and six pairs of socks, and the whole experience set me back less than $16. How often can you find deals like that?
The shoe range is pretty good, although when I went in, there wasn't much in my size. There were about three huge racks dedicated to my shoe size, but they were maybe 10% full of shoes, so unfortunately this time I wasn't able to find anything that I really wanted. I could have (and later cursed myself for not doing so) bought a $20 pair of lace up walking shoes, but they weren't really what I was looking for. In hindsight, with the amount of walking I had to do that day, a spare pair of shoes would have been handy.
The service was really good. Very friendly, quick, and the lady just seemed to be happy to be there. There's not many places you can go where you can say that any of the staff want to be there, are there?
Good place. read more
