We love shopping at 'The Organic store' (as we know it)…read more The shop is not overly large, but they always have lovely fresh organic fruit and vegetables (seasonal) - what they have will depend on the day... fresh flowers and plants, plus a huge variety of dry organic foods, spices, herbs, toiletries, etc, etc..

I am a big supporter for donating as well as finding bargains for myself. If either could help…read moresomeone in need, then I am all for that. St Vincent de Paul in Sumner Park offer a lot of second hand goods to fill a wardrobe as well as a home. Not only do they have a wide selection of womens, mens and childrens clothings, which are all in reasonable condition they also have homewares. The homewares here include an array of kitchen utensils, pots and pans, cupboards, tables and chairs, sofa's and even some beds and bedding. I have bought a few trinkets from here to decorate the house with. I love collecting old books and unique figurines. The staff who work unpaid for charity are clearly passionate about what they are doing. You can see in their kindness and service. I recommend coming every two weeks to check on anything new that's been donated. Also, feel free to get in contact with them to donate any pre-loved items.

The best bit about this op shop has to be the $1 rack. In an age of vintage anything, op shops have…read moredefinitely caught on to the idea that they are stocking a goldmine of opportunity* and jacked up the prices accordingly. Finding a $1 rack of things that are wearable is fantastic. Ok, so not everything is wearable (unless you're having a Rubik's Cube party!), but it's still very cheap. Shopping at the MS shop is definitely a pot-luck experience. It's small so everything is shoved in, and whilst there is definitely a semblance of order, there is certainly no guarantee that there'll be anything useful in the pile. Keep checking, I say. Sooner or later it'll pay off. The Christmas decorations are often particularly nice. *pun unintended but kept in because it makes me feel clever.

The owner is careful and friendly and keeps the place in very good condition. It seems strange to be so positive about a laundromat, but when you have to go outside your home for such a regular important service it makes a big difference to be able to do it in such a reliable facility. Thank you to the owner for their constant hard work for the community here. Very much appreciated!

They also have scanners for all your imaging needs, as well as computers for you to work on if needed. There's also a wicked guillotine for cutting, and bad one found beside it and a number of photocopiers. All of this sounds marvelous doesn't it? The prices are good and the people are really nice about their work. Ok, bad thing? It's busy. And I don't mean like a little busy. It's insane. I suppose everyone leaves their copying and such to the last minute like myself, and so we like-minded fools find ourselves queuing haphazardly around the couch area in the centre, playing with scrap paper and trying not to lose our minds as we count the seconds to our due dates. You can kind of call ahead and book, but that will only make it quicker once you are actually being served. There hours of operation are good, opening at 10am on weekends and 8am on weekdays, which could be the best time to go.

Look, the quality is pretty good. Prices reasonable…read more But the 'customer service' is an absolute joke. It's busy, but staff wanders around without a sense of urgency or any acknowledgement of their customers. If options weren't limited, there would be no reason to come here. There doesn't seem to be dedicated counter staff, so catch one if you can! Expect to spend at least an hour here even if there are only a couple people in front of you and you have a small job.
