This op shop is a reverse TARDIS. That is, it looks a lot bigger on the outside than it turns out…read moreto be. It is, however, positively bustling, which is something I don't often get to say and I am glad that I can. Inside a shed that I assume once was a station, Ashburton Support Services sells off the usual op shop fare and pretty reasonable prices. I say pretty reasonable - I found a dress that I loved and it was $14, which is far more than I'm used to paying in these shops (and thus I stuck my nose up at it). There is a huge toy selection and book section, although the books are mostly airport/romance novels of the yawn variety. Maybe you like them. The reason the place is so small is because half of the building is dedicated to a "staff only" area. I can only assume that that is where furniture sales happen. Or support services or something.

Well, they certainly cater to the party goer, especially with the huge selection of (cheap and nasty) costumes that are available. They also claim to be a specialist in helium balloons, and they certainly have a huge range of balloons available. In fact they had these little draws each containing a different sort of balloon. Okay, they also have a few other discount items available, but their main focus is being a party supply store, and you can certainly get a decent amount of supplies here for whatever reason you have for throwing a party (not as if you actually need a reason, but you know what I mean).
