As for its products - well, take your chances! It's a parallel import heaven! They buy their stuff in bulk at discounted prices - and you never really know what you're going to find. One day you might come across an exercycle, the next some fishing tackle or cleaning detergent. It's truly random - and a lot of it isn't the best quality known to humanity - but at least you can get a refund if it breaks in the alloted timeframe! They also produce their own brand of clothing and sell loads of mainstream CDs and DVDs, games and toys at cheap prices. Their motto is where everyone gets a bargain - and even if you don't come out the door with what you bargained for, you can guarantee that you'll find something - even if it's random junk you never needed in the first place! Occasionally you really will pick up a useful bargain though.

I did not need the shelter when I was there as the weather was great, but I gather it is sometimes valuable. Besides the crafts, they had several reasonably good food vendors, and I was able to get a nice lunch without leaving the harbor, including a Chilean empanada, a small but cheap dosa, and some dumplings over rice (they were out of vegetarian for some reason, but I got their chocolate banana dessert dumplings instead so that was interesting). From a food perspective, you can do alright.

This particular version of the red shed isn't nearly as good as the ones in Paraparaumu, Porirua City or central Wellington. It's much smaller with a more limited range. But if you're popping into next door Woolies, you might want to nip in here and have a peek.
