Bargain Depot is certainly an aptly named clearance outlet. Set up in the manner of Aldi stores,…read morethe wares are displayed in the boxes in which they were brought in, and left out in open topped isles. However, unlike Aldi, most of the brands are clearly recognisable as the same stocked at any other supermarket. For the most part everything is priced significantly lower than your standard supermarket, or about the same as if all the goods were on special all the time. For example, a solitary can of Red Bull will only set you back $1.50 and a big bag of chips comes in around the $2 mark. However, I'd recommend a close inspection of expiry and use by dates, as it has a whiff of NQR about it, given the whole "clearance" element. The stock extends beyond food goods, with most of the stuff you'd find at your local supermarket and/or discount centre covered in the various sections. Among the more exciting discoveries was a huge range of piñatas for $18 a pop at the back of the store, including one that's a mermaid. Pretty cool, hey?

You know that moment when you're just tiring of shopping for cool clothes and realise that what you…read moreactually REALLY need is a bucket and then you find yourself enjoying bucket shopping more than you ever enjoyed shopping for said cool clothes? It is at this very moment that I head to Best Mart, a store selling a bit of everything - buckets, bins, kitchen accessories, mirrors, art supplies - at great prices from a decidedly unglamorous shop on the Collingwood side of Smith Street. Kind of like Ikea in miniature - but without the Scandinavian design sensibility and on sale - Best Mart is definitely the place to go for all things practical and prosaic. And the buckets? Brilliant. Lots of colours, lots of sizes and providing one of the most satisfying buying experiences I've had in ages. I love Best Mart.

When I was shopping in Coburg I took a wander through the aisles of this large discount shop. Along…read morewith the usual discount shop range of toys, kitchen ware and stationary this shop also has a lot of discount sweets and a few other groceries. It seems to specialize in cheap seasonal decorations. The window is currently full of Xmas decorations, last month it was Halloween and soon the Easter eggs will be filling the shop.

Have been here several times whilst doing the rounds of local bargain shops in the area, and it is…read morenow my first stop because they usually have a very good range of incense at cheap prices. Besides the incense, i've bought a few pieces of glassware, stationary, and cat products here because they have a good range of these that seems slightly better quality than the average imports. Very little in the way of hardware, electronics, or home maintenance compared to nearby stores, but i'm heading down there tonight to raid that excellent range of incense and buy a new drink bottle.

I bought numerous Classic Soft Nougats to give as gifts. I used my rewards card to register my…read morepurchases. We tasted one at home and found it bitter. Luckily, I did not give them to anyone. I took them back this morning and an Asian woman was at the register. I told her it was bitter and to taste it. She asked for my receipt even though my purchase was in their computer via rewards card. I told her that Supply Warehouse has a money back guarantee. She became nasty and called another woman. The other woman (manager) was even nastier. So she called the owner and the owner said it was bitter (thus faulty) product; therefore, the woman gave me a refund but went on to reprimand me and called me the "nastiest customer she's ever seen". I told her I was exercising my right to a refund, as this product was unmerchantable and should not be sold. They both continued to accuse me of being nasty. I told her that her treatment of me was unnecessary, as I will be getting a refund but now she has lost a customer. She said, "I don't care. We don't want you back!" They continued yelling at me and the Asian woman even tried to get another customer involved with the dispute. The other customer was clearly uncomfortable. I told her it was unprofessional to involve another customer. She continued to accuse me of rudeness. I asked the manager her name and she said she didn't have a name, just "the woman with big boobs" and she held her boobs while saying it. I informed her that all of social media will know about this. I have never encountered such disgraceful and unprofessional treatment in a store in all my life, and I shall never go to this store again. I invite the owner to review the CCTV footage of this reprehensible treatment.

If you are looking for Converse products such as sneakers, clothing, tracksuits and windcheaters, then this is the place to go. Authentic Factory Outlets is located furthest from the city end of Smith Street amongst all the factory outlets offering products with labels at cheaper prices than you find in regular stores. I managed to get a pair of Converse One Stars and even got some free Converse socks to sweeten the deal. It's not only Converse in this Authentic Factory Outlet, you can also get a number of other cheap shoes and other street wear at discounted products such as Tommy Hilfiger. This part of Smith Street is great for the bargain hunter and this Authentic Factory Outlets is a must.

I have to confess, I am in love with Daiso. There is every little knick knack you could possibly…read morewant and then some! Not to mention the whole Japanese inspired theme given it is part of a big Japanese chain. This store is a "$2 shop" lover's dream - keeping in mind everything is $2.80 here. As a bit of a beauty fanatic I was enthralled by the range of face masks, bath products, and false lashes on offer. There is also a wide range of other beauty products but check the product listings carefully (most are in both Japanese and English) - ingredients such as palm and mineral oil are low quality... Then again given that everything is $2.80 one must have realistic expectations! Ladies a nice range of stockings and knee high socks was available when I went in as well as tonnes of great hair clips and other accessories. There's also a heap of great home stuff available too. No one is left out, there is even stuff for pets. :) Grab one of the shopping trolleys when you enter as a hand held basket is simply not enough! As much as I love this place, I am kind of glad there isn't one in my home city as I'd probably be in there daily (and broke as a result!).

Need new bike lights? Daiso has it. Need crockery for new apartment? Daiso will have some. Need a…read morecreepy outfit for your teeny tiny fluffy dog? Guess what, you'll find it at Daiso. Daiso is basically the Ikea of everything you can't find at Ikea. You walk in needing new ice trays and walk out with three bigs full of stuff that you're not event quite sure what it is. Everything is $2.80 (everything) and you'll find stuff you never even knew you needed. I go to buy cute little homewares such as crockery or the aforementioned ice trays, as well as things like silly cards or gift bags. The point is, if it exists, you'll find it at Daiso (for the low low sum of $2.80.)

As far as junk shops go, this is as good as it gets. It's not so much the range, because it stocks…read morethe same usual amount of 90% useless shit, most of it over-stacked on to the aisle floors. Although, I have found them fantastic for kids arts and crafts, from the usual cheap staplers, glues, pencils, paper - to wool and other materials, sparkly stick on thingy-mi-jigs, and bulk bags of all of that crap in one to make it easier for your dear self. Not to mention the cheap as chips costume jewellery. My daughter has LOVED it here. I love it more for Mary's cheery little Greek helper; a lovely old bubbly man who's enthusiasm and zest for life is infectious. He genuinely loves talking to people and he is by far the best customer service person I've met in a long time... the beauty is he isn't even trying. The first time I went here I tried to pay with EFT, it's one thing they don't have. Because he could see my daughter had grown attached to the hoop I was buying her, he let me take it with us while we went to get cash. AMAZING! He even guessed how pregnant I was, came close to the date I gave birth and guessed my unborn child would be a boy, which he is. It's just so darn nice to walk into a store and have someone work there who is really enjoying what they do, enjoys people and almost makes you feel like one of the family. Whenever I'm in the area I can't help but pop in and be made cheerful for the day, if not the week, by this delightful gentleman. Good for cheap kitchenware such as platters, mixing and salad bowls and individual cutlery pieces if you're in need of a top up. Also scored a great faux leather tote bag for $15, it was fake but it didn't look too bad, and allowed me to save for the D&G beauty I treasure I now.
