This is a party plan business, but the parties are run by the lady who makes the hairclips. The clips are just devine, I was really amazed, much better than I was expecting.

They are all handmade, and she puts a lot of care into making very good quality, and durable clips. She has a good understanding of which type of clip will suit which hairtype, which helps you when buying.

The value for these clips is great, only a few dollars for the basic clip which still would take some time to fiddle with and glue together.

She brings along her embellishments, and you can really go to town creating exactly the style you want. She has everything you could imagine, it is great going to the party even just to search through her boxes!!!

Approximate cost: $from $4-

Great prices on a huge range of books. It is like having an Amazon but in Australia so we can feel more secure.

When I say huge, I mean that when I type in a subject, literally heaps of books pop up. The reviews are pretty good, and sometimes they show you a snippet of the book.

When you order, you can see when your order might be delivered which is always good.

The prices as compared to other places is really good, probably the best prices I have found.

We can get practically all of our groceries in this one shop. The prices are better than other organic grocery stores as well.

They have chairs/tables so we can sit down and have a drink after shopping. The range of drinks and snacks is great, from juice to coffee, to nice cakes and salad rolls.

They have the cutest shopping baskets to use when shopping.

The owners have just changed, and are not nearly as friendly, but with the great shopping there we are still going. I love how it is most definitely ethical shopping there, and that groceries are bought from smaller makers at fair prices, unlike supermarkets!

I love this store! They have most of their displays up high so my children can run around and play while I shop, this is the first store ever to do that, such a great idea.

The girls are all so friendly, and they love what they have there. They spend time with me, and talk to my children, they are so lovely.

The range is huge, everytime I go there I see something new. What I love though is how fresh it all looks. It is a pleasure to look at and looks like how I would want my baby nursery to look.

I love their range, they have everything I need for my baby, and lots of choice. I know the owner is a local mum who works really hard to find ethical and natural products for mums and babies. My oldest daughter is 7yo and I still find things in there for her.

I cannot say enough about this shop, and their online store is huge also. I ordered something I had run out of when I was interstate at my mums and got the parcel really quickly.
