Shockingly, someone told me that this magnificent and oh so friendly shop is actually part of a much larger and voracious chain of paper sellers and newsagents who trade under the same name. Surely not. I mean can you imagine a bland corporate identity and an obsession with removing as much money from your purse as possible being identified with this wonderful shop? God forbid.

This WH Smith in Totnes is very small and cramped. Although the store is small it still carries…read morequite a good selection of stock. The CD, DVD and game section of the store is tiny carrying only limited titles so this is not the place to shop for something that isn't in the charts. The book selection is slightly better offering a good selection of adults and children's books. The magazine and newspaper section is the largest part of the store offering a varied selection of magazines.

They also have a good range of sweets and that is definitely popular with the local school children who can be seen picking out a selection of the sort of sweets that used to cost one penny each but are a bit dearer now. The shop also has a good display of greetings card. You can pay to top up your electric key here and pay for other utilities. I always find the window the most interesting part of the shop as it carries postcards and posters with information of local clubs and activities, items for sale and small businesses, builders decorators and that type of thing. There is a car park which is also handy.
