I love going to this store as they have a large selection of books and magazines. I often peruse around here. I like to sit on their chairs/couches and read whenever I have free time. No one disturbs me which, is fanastic. I like the fact that you can have a coffee and read in the shop. I have found staff here to be quite friendly.

I like the layout of the store, as it is easy to navigate around. The staff there are quite friendly and helpful. Whenever I have returned items here, I have never had any problems. Their items can be a bit pricey for basic items but, whenever they have sales I have picked up some great buys.

The layout is well done and quite pleasing to the eye. The staff that work there seem friendly and helpful. They acknowledge you and don't bother you which, I prefer as I often browse shops in peace without over enthusiatic SA's chatting to you. The prices for their garments are quite pricey for what you pay. When they do have sales on items, I have picked up a few items at good prices.

This review is for StrawberryNET.com, Sydney NSW

I have purchased off this website a few times and am very impressed. The items I have purchased have been substantially cheaper than from department stores and pharmacies. Whenever I have ordered items they have arrived within a few days. They arrived neatly packaged and secure and delivered free of charge. They will gift wrap free of charge if you purchase items for presents. They only downside is that products and colours are not always stocked so you need to check Strawberrynet regularly to see when stock arrives. To this day all my purchases have been geniune, not out of date and in excellent condition.

I have been here a few times and have been recommended by many people to come here as the doctors have a good reputation and they bulk bill. There are a few doctors that quite good I see Dr Hanna who, is lovely and able to properly diagnose me. She only works a few days a week though.

This review is for Limelight Cafe, Doncaster East VIC

I have driven past here a few times and thought to myself. Yet another restaurant in this exact spot. Every year there is a new restaurant that crops up here only to close down again. This place is hard to miss as it has a lime green signs and chairs in the front. The staff were very friendly and showed me to a table. There is plenty to choose from the menu and the prices were quite reasonable. I have heard that the service here is quite slow as it is a new place. There was a sign on the door advertising for serving staff was displayed on the front door. I only had to wait less than 10 minutes for my meals which, isn't too bad, considering that the place was packed when I got in. The food tasted fresh and it wasn't greasy. Great customer service and good food, I would return again for another meal.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Myer, Melbourne VIC

I like coming to the city store as they have quite a large variety of items that are only stocked in the city. The store set up looks fantastic in the recently renovated sections. The older parts of the store look dark and outdated. The service has improved since the upgrade and have found staff to assit me. I am not sure if this will continue though. I love the fact that they have included some eateries and even have a Brunetti's so if I want to stop and relax with a nice cup of coffee I can do so. Overall, I like this Myer store and will continue to shop here.

This review is for Carlucci's, Templestowe VIC

I am been here many times. I go there for coffee and occasionally some sweets. I find the food is quite fresh and the meals of a satisfactory level. It is nothing flash, perfect for a casual lunch or dinner. It is a great place to take a family as it is family friendly. I love sitting outside as you can see the bustle happening outside.

This review is for Shocolate, Fitzroy VIC

What a great place. It is a small place with about 4 tables inside and about 6 outside on the verrandah. From the moment I walked in until I left the staff were very friendly and helpful. Prompt service. Their hot chocolates are delicious and hot. They have been rated as the best in Melbourne and I am pleased to say that it is one of the best I have ever tried. They are not too sweet and are quite filling. Their milk shakes also also devine. The chocolates taste like heaven and desserts look very appealing and are oh so good to eat. I love that fact that they have a window for customers to view the chocolatier at work making all those yummy chcolates that are proudly displayed in the glass cabinet.

Approximate cost: $8

This review is for Benefit Brow Bar, Melbourne VIC

I frequently visit the Benefit Brow Bar. The service is fantastic. I usually make a booking as the counter tends to be quite busy. The last time I went since Myer have done their renovations I dropped by and they were able to accomodate me straightaway. The brow therapist explained to me what she was going to do with my brows (they always tell you upfront) and ask if you are happy. After she has shaped them, she asked if I wanted some brow pencil to tidy up my brows. Another girl touched up my make-up to cover the redness. All the girls there are fantastic as they communicate what they will do for you. Nothing is any trouble for them. They are quick and efficient. I have to admit their service has improved immensely since the renovations, so I was very impressed. Highly recommended.

Approximate cost: $25
