I sort of hate these guys because of their crappy jingle. But whatever, it's a memorable ad. I sort…read moreof would prefer to shop at this store, even with the stupid jingle, since they are family-owned. Better than Harvey Norman I guess. I am no white goods and furniture expert, but given that they also stock second-hand goods here, you are likely to come across a bargain if you keep your wits about you. They do quotes over the phone and delivery seven days a week, with considerably less rigamarole than you'll get when dealing with a bigger chain store. They also offer services and repairs, and interest free layby. WOO!

Save yourself a fist full of dollars by shopping at this factory outlet, as it has various…read moreelectrical items which just might be what you're after and fit the budget. And all items from the factory outlet carry a full warranty. The majority of the items here are either scratch and dent, demos or simply the previous model, not that there's anything wrong with that, check where the marks are on the item and if they're not going to be visible, then why not. With these particular items it just means the store cannot sell items which are not in peak cosmetic condition. As an example which is two years old but none the less, I done some research on which TV was going to be the best for us, good quality and had the features we wanted...so we settled on a Toshiba Regza 46". I can't remember the exact amounts paid but I can tell you the difference between buying it new from a department store and new from HV outlet was $1000, as it was the model just finished and HV was making room for the next in coming model that's the reason it was at their factory outlet. That's it...we saved $1000, got full warranty, wasn't a scratch n dent and it's still going strong, best investment. It also had alot to do with being in the right place at the right time, all the stars aligned and all that jazz. Hint: Do you research online, read blogs, get specs, etc and then look for where it is for viewing, how much it costs, take into account a small portion of what the sales people tell you as they get brownie points for sales, then add it all up in the end, because it's your money and your decision not theirs. Smart shoppers save. Note: 4 star rating for this HVFO store only!

The Harvey Norman clearance outlet is a little shop on south road, where not so perfect electronic…read moregoods go to be sold. It's kind of like an animal shelter for whitegoods. You go in there and tell the guys what you need and they show you items that might be a bit less than perfect. The great thing is that quite often, there's the tiniest of dents or scratches which is stopping them from being sold in the normal shops. The way to shop here is to go to the regular HN stores, find something you want, look at where it is going in your house and know which surfaces are not important. For example, our fridge will be against a wall on its left side, so I could have bought one with a huge scratch on that side. I ended up getting a brand new Fisher and Paykel fridge and washing machine with a hefty discount. Also, they offer an extended warranty and delivery. The fridge has a tiny dent on the front which you can barely see and the washing machine has a scratch on the side, but as it's being built in, it won't be seen. They also have TV's, coffee machines, washing machines, cooktops and ovens, heaters, air conditioners and more. Definitely worth checking out. Also, all the items are tested to check that they still work fine.

My housemate and I ran into the friendly service from Mr Dishwasher after the dishwasher died in…read moreour rental property, leaked on our electrics and shorted out the whole house. Oh yes it was as fun as it sounds. The guy who arrived was prompt and explained everything dishwasher related. He even made it sound easy in girl terms. The dishwasher was installed and running in a few minutes and he also gave us the manual (in case of further electrical problems), a whole tub of dishwashing powder specific for the German brand we received (score!) and a bottle of rinse aid. As two students who don't have a budget for dishwashing powder of rinse aid - this was greatly, greatly appreciated! The guy also left us his card and told us not to hesitate to call if we had any problems or any other questions. I'm sure two girls can figure out how a dishwasher functions, but it was sweet of him to offer.

What caught my attention were the beautiful, large, wood ovens they had for sale. Incredibly worth it if you have a spare few grand just lying around.

So what makes this one so special? Well, the thing about renting is that you will get ex-rentals, and they sell these at this specific location in Adelaide. It's fantastic place to get a good price on old electronics like flat screen tv's and computers especially. All the things they sell are still in good working order, and if they are damaged in some way, they are repaired or refurbished before they are sold. The goods come with warranty so you don't have to worry that you might be stuck with a lemon the moment you buy it. Because they are ex-rental, alot of the electronics they sell can range from a couple of months to a year to 2 years old, which in electronics years can be quite a significant amount of time. Still, I think alot of people get overly hung up with buying the newest and greatest tech when something which is a year or 2 old will do the job if you know what it is exactly that you want. A great place to get a bargain on ex-rental electronics which work and come with all their components, this is where I will normally look if the likes of eBay fail me.

It's an escape from everyday life and adds a touch of whimsy the stuff dreams are made of. Ok I may have gone on a bit but I simply adore it. I must've had a past life in one of those grandiose French / Italian villas, as I am so drawn to this type of decor. My husband can never understand why I buy these items and put them around the house to gather dust. I then just point out to him that he has his vices and I have mine..so there. Villa Provence is located on Portrush Rd Toorak Gardens right next door to the Trak Cinema. I can't believe they don't have a website or a Facebook page as I'm sure they'd have enough followers to take over Adelaide. Yes it is on the pricey side so pick and choose your pieces carefully if on a budget and if not well you're just plain lucky. There are so many items they can't fit in the shop so it spills over into the walkway inside on the way to the cinema, such as wrought iron chairs and benches, decorative wooden birdcages, book and nic nak display shelving and so much more. And as a note: a little further down the centre corridor at the end on the right is Villa Hamptons! A different feel much like being at the seaside along the Mediterranean, very noyce! You simply have to go there darlings, ta ta.

As far as this sort of stock goes, this shop is great. The merchandise ain't flimsy or weak or fragile. Most of it feels made to last, which is good. The stock's mostly interesting (though it's your usual brand of odd, needless birdcages and stone faces and wrought-iron chairs and whatnot). It's expensive. But I'll concede that the quality of good seems to justify the expense. I think I'll be returning here in a few years. Unless I want my bedroom to match the decor of the store.
