If you want to read it, Quay Newsagency is sure to have it. It's a one-stop newsagency that stocks a huge selection of newspapers and magazines. Aside from a wide selection of reading materials, this shop also sells cigarettes and snacks of all kinds. Craving for a Snickers Bar to go with today's copy of the Sydney Morning Herald? Go ahead and stop on by! Highly recommended!

I used to buy 3 cent cobbers and 5 cent red frogs here back in the dizzle, but times have changed and Killer Pythons are no longer 20 cents. Still, it's comforting to know that newsagents haven't moved with the times, they're still the same ol' reassuring newspapers-n-bus ticket puerveyors they've always been, so when I had a sore throat and needed the benevolent balm of some Butter Menthols, I knew just where to get them.

I really love my local newsagency. For a small store they have quite a lot in it without being…read moremessy or appearing crammed. They have the mags I like - Frankie, Yen, Web Designer, Wallpaper as well as all the glossies, sports and family magazines and newspapers. But they also have things like super glue, sparklers, A3 coloured card, files, street maps, birthday candles and icecream. If you run out of bread, milk or Tim Tams this week shop will have you covered when the markets are closed. My only issue is the three stairs up to get in her as I often have a pram with me. Not a big deal but would be easier without them. The staff are very kind and friendly.

If you listen to the program on the radio you will have discovered that it is a bit of a hit or miss. We made the effort this time as the Doug Anthony All Stars were featuring and they are definitely a HIT. The show is for an hour and you need to get there 30 mins prior. There are some comfy seats and you can watch four screens with each of the ABC channels, Thomas the Tank Engine is the pick that time in the afternoon. Once the show is over you need to leave the building. It is a short walk to railway square, China Town or Paddy's

All I needed to buy was an oversized envelope, one stamp and a birthday card. Did you know that you can't purchase single stamps nowadays? I mean how often do we send mail these days? Instead of spending 60c on a stamp, you end up spending $6 on a sheet of ten (that you'll probably never use). Venting aside, I found the birthday card easily enough, though the single envelopes are mysteriously found behind the counter. I didn't expect to be able to purchase Darrell Lea chocolates to go with my birthday card. They have a whole section dedicated to these chocolates, enshrined in all their purple and white glory. It's a little difficult to resist that corner, so make sure that the next time you head in to buy the latest Cosmopolitan magazine, that you don't find yourself scratching your head with a box of these in your other hand.

All times I've visited this store, they've had some section or some aisles blocked by staff for restocking or some rearrangement or something - the store hasn't seemed to be 'tidy' (if that's the right word for it?), but its variety of printed products, gifts, cards, and great staff make it a good place to shop at.
