Aug 27, 2008Pros: This has got to be one of my all-time favourite stores! It's located in the Parkway Shopping Centre, opposite the chemist, at the end near the Rainbow Leisure Centre.
This shop offers absolutely the best value I have found and it's always the star attraction for me when I go to Coulby Newham! They stock all kinds of things, from food and drink (not fresh food, but they sell packets of food and biscuits and jars of coffee, etc), also toiletries, cleaning products, bedding, household items, and of course toys! Now, the food tends to be a little closer to its expiry date than you might find at the supermarket, but it's still within date and absolutely fine. Washing conditioner is another particular bargain at this shop, as well as washing up liquid.
The toys are fantastic value, and it's always worth popping in to see what they have. I have bought quite a few toys here which were priced at roughly half what other shops were selling them for.
Cons: There are a couple of downsides. One is that they don't have a massive amount of stock when it comes to bargain priced toys. It's first come first served and they only have a limited range - which is why I say it's always worth popping in because what's on sale one week will be gone by the next and hopefully replaced by something else.
Major downside is the check-out queues, and the staff are not that great. It always seems to be a major inconvenience if you want to check the price of something that doesn't have a sticker. -
