A few years ago I found myself working in Craig-y-Don and at the time I was selling off some old junk on E-Bay. This meant regular lunchtime trips to the post office to post packages and parcels. The existing Craig-y-Don post office had just closed so this meant hiking to the main office in town. I hated it because of the long queues and the annoying requirement for the staff to have to try to sell me some financial product I didn't want everytime I went there. Then a new Craig-y-Don branch was opened in the Chocolate Box which is a convienience store/newsagents. Not only did this avoid the need for hikes to town but no more long queues and most important I could post my parcels without the clerk trying to flog me car insurance. As an added plus you can also buy a hot pie on the way out! read more

this is the newsagent near where i grew up, the guy who runs it is very funny. he used to look at me fuunny and pull faces. the place is more of a newsagent thatn a post office in my eyes . it never used to have the post office , but now it does. they sell lots of chocolate bars, sweets, cigarettes. everything you would expect from a newsagent/ postoffice. i cant really fault this place. i would recomend you go there and try the posting facilities read more

Main fault is that the shop owner and/or son in law are constantly on the phone and do not have the courtesey to stop the conversation to serve you, just holding out their hand for your money and giving change without a word. Some manners would not go amiss. read more
