The staff are very knowledgeable and actually care about helping without being pushy sales people. They stock all the main things you would expect like first aid supplies, baby products, natural skincare like Trilogy and Natio, and decent nutritional supplements like Clinicians.

My family has used Bruce Amies Pharmacy for more than a decade and the service has always been…read moreexceptional. The pharmacist goes out of his way to order items in advance if needed. When out of stock items are always available the next day, whether from the pharmacist or from the clerk who runs the store and NZ Post Centre. Friday's they're open later and during the Christmas-New Year season only close on the statutory holidays. Parking is never a problem. Staff are friendly and personable. Highly recommended if you live in the neighbourhood or are looking for a reliable pharmacist.

Talk about a great range of pharmacy items in stock. I think Gladstone is one of the best stocked…read morepharmacies in town. They seem to have all of the essential lotions, potions and remedies for medical ailments, in addition to a great gift range in stock. They have loads of things to choose from if you are looking for a kid's present like themed bubble bath, soft cuddly toys and other funny cute items. My teenagers are more into the make up now and there is plenty of this on the shelves, nail polish and thankfully hair dyes since they want to be bottle blonds. Top brands are represented in the body lotions and soaps and other gift packs and there is a Natio mineral make up stand.

A pharmacy located on the Gladstone Road in Parnell that I used to frequent when I housesat across…read morethe road. It's a bit on the old school side with its products and decor - it doesn't seem as up to date as the likes of Amcal and Life pharmacy. The woman who runs it is a bit like that too but is very friendly and helpful. There seemed to be a bit of disparity between the prices of the products there. Some items seemed a bit expensive while others were much cheaper - I was looking for a travel sized shampoo and the one I got only cost $1.50. It's like they hadn't changed the price since the 1990s or something. They do some good gift sets for women here but when I asked if they would be prepared to wrap one for me, they said they didn't do that. It's a friendly little shop but you can't help thinking that whole place could do with catching up with the 21st Century.

Life Pharmacy in Manukau does a pretty good range of your usual pharmacy fare with additional…read morecustomer service that's pretty consistent. They recently got a re-vamp and while the store is smaller it still manages to fit in all the necessities. I love looking at their OPI section, which they display really well and they have a pretty good range of perfumes and colognes to browse. When i'm in a hair pickle I usually pick up extra bobby pins and hair ties from here, then end up buying something completely different- those salespeople are just too good! Apart from their beauty products, they have a good range of over the counter medicines should you need them. The ladies there are helpful and always make good suggestions, but don't put on too much pressure to buy (I've had to buy antihistamines for myself after a crazy reaction, and they were certainly not cheap). They also provide piercing services here and they can usually do it for you straight away or within 30 minutes. Pharmacies are definitely not cheap, but Life Pharmacy does some great deals every week that you might find handy and the staff can help you out with whatever you're after or even if you're just after some advice on a product.

I'd been getting a weird heat rash on my neck for a while, and couldn't figure it out. After stopping in for a quick visit, the pharmacist took one look, and knew exactly what to give me. Within a week, done and dusted! Magic work! I know pharmacists aren't meant to replace doctors, but sometimes they're just as good.

The gifts are set out by scent, so there are different spaces for citrus, lavender, rose and so on which makes it really easy to find what you're looking for. The center of the store always has some incredible display of the latest offerings and additionally this pharmacy boasts a large range of natural skin care and cosmetic brands. I bought some pretty pastel purple Italian glass pots here the other day, am yet to use it for a prescription though.

My friend from Australia was over recently and we had just done the Mt Eden Volcano climb, we headed down and into Mt Eden shopping district for lunch, on the way we popped into this pharmacy as my friend needed to buy deodorant (she had hers confiscated at the airport, remember no bigger than 90g! Or whatever it is!). She looked at several and then upon choosing came up to me -"is this normal?!"; it was under $10, but not by much. She has lived in several places around the world including Sydney and isn't fussed by money, but even she was shocked at basic items such as deodorant being so expensive in Auckland. I explained that Mt Eden is also a 'well-to-do' suburb so perhaps they were just that bit more pricey here as well.

They're quite useful when it comes to things like passport photos as I enquired recently in a photo shop and they quoted me $20 for a set of 16. I got the same thing in a pharmacy for $12. I have never got a prescription from this particular pharmacy but I suspect it would be fine as the staff seem very friendly and professional. What I like most about here is the range of women's gifts that are available. They obviously do perfumes but the do some nice gift sets too which I have bought for my wife on several occasions. I know photo frames are a bit cliche when it comes to gifts for a woman but they have really good ones here too.
