So they pretended they didn't know how to park their truck in front of our place. It was the strangest experience. Really disappointing experience with the delivery people. Kind of absurd that we're maybe going to have to get a refund on these items purely because they've hired employees that don't want to do their job they've been hired to do.

Excellent service. Awesome service…read more I went into The Good Buys at the Homemaker Centre at Alexandria last Friday. I have had my brand new fridge and Smeg Microwave for a day now. My white goods at my new place are in use much quicker than the Ikea furniture I brought weeks ago. Really happy with my purchases, and sometimes (even if you don't pay cash) there is room to negotiate on price. Excellent, excellent service. Delivery guys arrived as plan and they were pleasant. Will definitely deal with these 'guys' again. They were that good! Next stop: Dyson vacuum cleaner.

You get a 6 month guarantee, free delivery and they help set it up and test it. On top of that..we have never had anything go wrong with an appliance. Not in the 6 month period or afterwards. Really worth giving these guys a go! Jude P.

I was walking past here when I had just recently moved down the street and saw a front loader…read morewashing machine for $340 And my washing machine hadn't made the move due to my cat having one of his pixie chasing moments and totally breaking the lid and anything else plastic inside it. So back to my point, I decided that the cat would have a hard time breaking the lid of a front loader so went in and advised that I would be interested in the machine and what kind of deal he could do for me. The lovely gentleman inside instantly said that I could have it for $300 - and voila it was mine. It was even delivered for free and installed by the delivery guy! It works wonderfully well and I'm really happy with it. And my cat can't figure it out, which is a bonus. The only reason they didn't get 5 stars is because there is no facility to accept cards. Cash only. And I went on a walk to find an ATM.

It looks small from the outside but there's a huge variety of plants here! From houseplants to…read moresucculents, cacti and hibiscus, there was a lot to explore. They even had an entire section of pots and planters, some locally made by artists. My favorite thing was the little skull planters with a cactus in it that looked like a brain. They even called it "The Brain." I also found a very pretty peperomia, which I wish I could have taken home. It was nicely variegated and I haven't seen those colors before. We parked across the street and down the road but it wasn't a far walk at all. We had come from a small cafe.

Newtown Garden Market has everything you need to make your flower or vegetable garden thrive, or make your indoor herb garden ever-so fruitful. There are countless varieties of plantables, yes. But there are also plenty of things to fill your outdoor space with artsiness and style. I couldn't help but marvel over the tin garden sculptures of animals. Fashioned out of recycled materials (or so it seemed), these creatures are creative and somewhat abstract. Position one or two next to a solar powered gurgling bird bath and you might never want to leave your garden again. For me, I was drawn to the succulents. Spiky, cute, and virtually un-kill-able, these little bad boys are my favourite. Maybe it's because they also make me feel like a bit of a badass. It's not true, but a girl can dream, can't she?
