This discount store is located in the busy Firle Plaza but still remains one of the best I've been…read moretoo. The store itself is quite small but is jam packed with anything and everything you could ever need. Most impressive is their range of party accessories including plates and cutlery, streamers, napkins, balloons and plastic glassware. There is a huge variety of colours and lots of themed sets featuring popular cartoon characters which are perfect for children's parties. They also have a great selection of costumes and dress up accessories, although most appear to be in children's sizes. This would be, however, a great place to go if you have a dress up party and need something quick and cheap. The staff are lovely and I have overheard them on the phone going through the process of ordering an item in for a customer which shows dedicated customer service skills and is highly commendable.

There is a great range of stock here - I have two Bargain City's closer to home, but it's worth the…read moretrip here if you're looking for 'something' - it's a rabbit warren of assorted and quite mismatched paraphenalia , all quite good quality considering the very low pricing. The standout for me here is the 'junk' jewelery - having two young daughters it's an absolute given that we can drop in there for a celebratory treat for a good report card or performance at school, or for bribes to help get the chores done - there's always something new in the shiny sparkly trinkets and I prefer to spend on treats like that than a bagful of sugar and preservatives.

Finally a boutique that understands women and their bodies. That sells beautiful cloths, shoes,…read moreaccessories at a affordable price. They even do spray tan!! The 2 ladies that own the store are absolutely gorgeous and friendly and don't push stuff on you or tell you it looks good just to get a sale and very very helpful. If you are looking for that special outfit or just cool clothes give this boutique a look. Parking at the rear of building. And if you have a real woman's body shape, large breast etc they will have the outfit for you. My friend is a 20EE and she looked stunnnig in one of their dresses - worth a look!! I and my friend will be making this a regular stop on our weekly shopping trips.

This is me pretending to talk to my friend Kate about fashion:…read more Me: 'Hey girl, I love your dress, is that from .... Target Free Fusion?' Kate: 'It's an Alice Mccall.' Me: 'Oh right. Hehe. Of course.' Kate: ......'Is your skirt made of newspaper?' I'm not a fashion expert but these names might mean something to you: Palma Talulah Shakuhachi, This is Genevive, One Teaspoon, Children of the Sun, Azuki, Alice Mccall, Piper Lane? Love Affair is actually a bit of a surprise. You have to pass the chicken shop, and the Cafe Primo, and the Blockbuster, and the Eagle Boys, and then at the end of this suburban dream shopping centre you find: funky high end fashion. Who knew? The shop is small but packed full of stuff and from what I can see they have a high turnover, not unlike my handbag and chocolates. While I'm not a fashionista I have noticed that they have one-offs and quirky pretty things that you wouldn't find anywhere else. They also always have sales racks at the front with really nice stuff too. And the store name: provocative isn't it? Makes you want to buy a dress. And some condoms. Good store.
