Great shop, helpful staff, MOST prices were reasonable, but some were high, so felt i could get…read moresome things there, whilst others i can get cheaper buying online even with p/p charges. Was very interesting, and huge! would like to point out the free carpark on the shopping centre but dont go over the 2hrs free or you have to pay £60 fine ,{ although thats nothing to do with Hobbycraft, just want to pre-warn any customers that may go.} There were loads of staff, i think they outnumbered customers, and a little annoying as several times a member of staff was dodging around me shuffling items on the shelf where i was looking, which was a bit off putting, as it made me feel a little like i was being watched.If that happens when i go again it would probably stop me shopping there to be honest but ill give the benefit of the doubt this time. I was in a craft dream- world, walking along the isles with my mind racing with what i could make and use these things for,and really enjoying myself, so thats why the staff dodging around me was off-putting. All in all i loved all the stuff, i hope they keep an eye on their prices , and i would go again,hopefully without the staff hovering lol if your looking for something in particular im sure you will find it, the only they didnt stock that i wanted was Genesis Heat set paints would have given a 5/5 if i could get the paints i wanted and the staff issue.

Situated close to Norwich market this is a great discounted book store selling more than just…read morebooks. For those feeling the pinch of the credit crunch you would be wise to take a look here. They stock all sorts including cards, calendars, games, toys, posters and photo frames. The store is on three levels and because of this I tend to go there when I haven't got the children with me as access with a buggy is difficult and space is tight too. Staff are very helpful though and will give you a hand if you need it. I usually stock up on cards, and presents for party bags and still have change in my purse when I leave.
