This is your one stop shop for anything and everything you will ever need for your life at uni. I remember asking classmates where I could find forks and laundry detergent and they would reply "at the spa" thinking I had to go to some beauty and day spa in town. I didn't quite understand and then one day, I saw it. Just a few yards from my dorm room. It is like a liquor, supermarket and wal-mart all condensed into a compact corner convenient store. The only thing was that they couldn't quite understand me when I asked for 'aluminum foil' because you have to say 'aluminium.'
When I would run out of vodka, luncheon meat, gravy granules, tea and crumpets, frozen pizzas for 99 pence, or even fried chicken to get me through the cold, grueling days of studying, this Spar came to the rescue, everytime. I only have fond memories of this lifesaver.
Oh yea, and they have instant ramen and siracha sauce too! What a relief! read more
