This is an on line DVD Rental Company,have been a Member for just over 5 weeks now and am very happy with service so far.Convenient,choose the DVDs you want to watch over net and they arrive in the mail within days.Best bit-no late fees,great for us!Post DVDs back in envelope provided,more titles you have chosen are then sent out to you.No time limit on return,great,pass DVDs on for family members to enjoy.Various monthly plans available starting from $9.95 per month.Give this one a try.

Approximate cost: $9.95 p/m

This review is for CP Tip Shop, Margate TAS

Shopped here for a few years now,this Tip Shop like all others sells a variety of used and unwanted goods ranging from household items,electrical,building supplies,toys,clothing,many other various bits and pieces.Employed here for a small hourly wage are several guys who are physically disadvantaged,all fantastic,friendly people.Other Staff are also friendly,pleasant people.Profits from this shop help fund Cerebral Palsy Association.Prices range from fair to overpriced.On the most recent day I shopped there,the entire outdoor area was a total mess.Would have been difficult for elderly people to move around,found it difficult myself having to step over items lying about.Figured here as it was a weekend ,not too many young guys there to move items around.Senior Staff seem to give the orders,very little else.Other than that,not a bad place to go,lovely drive from Hobart too.Check it out.

Like other Tip Shops this shop offers various used and unwanted items ranging from household goods,electrical,furniture,building materials,books,toys and endless other bits and pieces.Good range of items,some reasonably priced,others and there are a lot,are way too over priced.If the prices were more reasonable this would rate as a much better place to shop for a bargain.Still OK though,much better than some.

Shop contains varied range of used and unwanted goods ranging from household goods,furniture,building materials,clothing,electrical (buyer beware),various other items.Staff friendly not too keen on this shop though,signs displayed stating no refunds under any circumstances...my question here is,when you buy an electrical item and the sticker states 'ok-works',if that item does not work when you get it home-surely you are entitled to a refund otherwise you are just giving this shop your cash in return for nothing.The pricing on their chipped,broken so called Antiques is a joke.Shop there,make your own judgement.Obviously some people agree with their pricing as there is some turnover.

Shop here often,this 'shop' has a huge range of both pre loved/used and new but unwanted items ranging from indoor-clothing,homewares,books,to outdoor-building materials,car parts-too much to list!Staff always friendly,helpful,no doubt even on their bad days!!I find this Tip Shop the most sensibly priced in Sthrn Tas. Check it out,check out the other Tip Shops too-this is the one you will keep coming back to.

This is a store I shop at each week for all my Chicken and meat requirements.Each time I shop here the staff are always friendly,joking around,makes the whole shopping thing more enjoyable.All chicken and meat products are much cheaper than major supermarkets.I recommend this store to all meat eaters!Shop here and compare for yourself.

We recently needed to purchase a computer.Being on Centrelink payments we were eligible to apply for assistance from Nils.There is no face to face meeting with Nils staff.All done by phone and paper work.Highly recommend this business to those who feel they can be helped by Nils.All contact with Nils has been excellent.Friendly and helpful.Have needed to use their service previously,needing a fridge,will no doubt need their services again.

After having waited some years for Dental Care thru Gov.Dental Clinic,finaly my 'turn' came.Having needed alot of work done before denture work could proceed,I expected many visits with long waits inbetween.6 weeks is all the time I had to wait until denture was made and fitted.Astudent preformed all work done and I was more than pleased with the outcome.This Clinic receives much negative feed back-my experience is a most positive one.Staff from Reception thru to Professional staff were all friendly and caring.

Our family dog required surgery for removal of cancerous growth,skin condition ,desexing and micro chipping.Not being in a position to pay account upfront,staff kindly allowed us to pay by instalments.Totally confident of leaving our dog in their hands,caring,compassinate,genuine staff.Shall continue to use and recommend this Vet in future.
