The second hand bookshop at Bushmills is quite possibly my favourite place in the world. It's a…read morebook lovers paradise. They sell books ranging from Chaucer, Shakespeare, Wilde, to Mills & Boon. The prices here are incredible. You can pick up some great items. Problem is though you can never leave with just one book! My family are in Bushmills quite regularly, usually around Christmas so I know I'll always find a classic or two in my stocking. I always make a point of calling in when I'm in the area as you can occasionally find some brilliant deals. The shop is a hidden gem in the quite little town of Bushmills. This is all part of its charm. You'd hardly even know it was here so keep an eye out for it. You can find some rare collectible items and some great surprises.

This is Coleraine's only Christian Book Shop. They have a huge stock of inspirational reading and…read morequite often have special offers. They also stock gifts for that very special occasion. Cards for every occasion are also available. If you are not quite sure if something is appropriate the staff will advise. The staff are all genuine christian people with one goal! The shop itself is spaceous and well laid out.

They always seem to have a sale on - summer or winter with great discounts. They have a great stock of crockery and dinner services. Great place if you are looking for a wedding present. They do wedding lists too for anyone getting married. I like to have a look around when in Portstewart because you can always pick up a bargain.

I love this shop and their deals. They also sell online and try to help as much as they can…read more Worth a look around when visiting Portstewart

Loads of…read morestock, great prices and good section at back for the children (albeit they can sometimes be guilty of setting a table there with reduced items that are not children's books, so watch out as you never know what the kids could be browsing through). One small downside - location. I honestly think it would do even more business if it was further up the main shopping precinct area or in the shoping centre.

Heatons is a small department store which sells a staggeringly wide range of goods, from toys to…read moretrousers and shoes to sugar bowls. Some of the stuff falls into the category of things you didn't even know you needed until you see them. Students will love the household section, with its brilliantly priced cutlery and crockery, bins, door mats and duvet covers. You really will find it hard to beat these prices. Some of the ranges are really quite worthy of even the most fussy home owners (that would be me), like the funky mugs, bowls and teapots with chickens on and the opulent fabric flowers which cost a fortune in other shops. The towels and bed linen are also pretty good quality for the rock bottom prices being charged. I have scored quite a few bargains in the toy and book sections and in summer they have great inflatables and ball games for the beach. The only department which doesn't float my boat is the clothes section. Frumpy, unfashionable and with far too much man made fibre going on. Buying clothes on a small budget doesn't have to mean a style bypass people.

The shop is clean and bright and sells some new goods as well as the donated goods. If you have kids who like to read, it is always worth checking their shelves or if you are a reader too, then take a browse. Most books are in very good, near new condition and reasonably priced. And just think, your purchase will not just bring you enjoyment, it will help others too. What a feel good factor!
