I've got to add a star here, purely for the range of magazines - you will find a bigger magazine range here than mostly any other newsagency in the Adelaide metro area - I did find one specialised newsagency in the city that also had a bigger range of interstate and international newspapers, but wherever that one was it was a pain to park anywhere near - Semprinis wins, hands down, for the convenience of the Unley shopping centre car park.
So what exactly do I mean? I mean if you're looking for a car magazine, they'll have plenty. Several different offerings for the style you're looking for. If you're looking for model making magazines, they'll have more than one. You can choose from a row of magazines specialising in design, or graphic design, or photoshop, or digital photography, etc. They've got the current issues of many US & UK magazines on the shelf, rather than having them 3 months out of date.
I could browse here for ages. And it's the first place I'd head if I was looking for a magazine on a specific subject. Of course, these days I have the internet - that's made a huge impact on my old diet of magazine after magazine for a source of information on topics I am obsessed by - but it's still my go to for mags.
They do lotto, too. That's my pet peeve here - the centre is so busy that big draws (which, of course, like lots of other sheep, that's when I think of getting a ticket) result in crowds at the counters. Small gripe for such a good range. And yes - I use 'em for gifts, too :) read more
