I have always had good experiences with VIC Roads Sunshine, I am always seen quickly, not having to wait for too long, which is great as I normally have to drag the kids along with. They have snack machines on hand if the wait is too long & plenty of friendly staff that cater for all Vic road matters.

The perfect website, with newsletter for the perfectionist that procrastinates. Just reading the newsletters filled with tips & ideas to keep your home organised is the inspiration I need to get going & stay motivated. I have added them to my safe senders & I read the newsletters constantly. One of my favourite.

Love to hear the music, as the home ice-cream truck comes driving down the street. Yummy ice-creams & value for money. The taste is great, & the boxes are filled with ice-creams.

One of my favourite newsletters to receive in my inbox, I often save the newsletter so that I have time to ponder the wonderful advice in saving. I have saved money by using the tips & advice provided in the newsletters on several occasions.

A great supermarket to shop at, well set out & always friendly & helpful staff. Quick service at the checkout. Their is also a free play area just outside for the kids.

They are a great shop for all the little needs, like wrapping paper & birthday cards for example. I think they could use a little more staff & be a bit faster with their service. They could also fair well but not cluttering the walkways, especially for those of us with prams & trolleys.

Very friendly staff, with quality items, including clothing & accessories for teenage girls. Great prices that are well below similar quality items purchased elsewhere. We love their bags.

Love Ozmosis, the number one shop for all things hubby! From wallets, belts, shoes, to every item of clothing needed for the man that likes to stay up to date with his fashion. They also have clothes for kids & women, but I would need to be smaller ;)

Leaping Lizards is a great stop whilst taking a walk through Brimbank Park, my kids love to grab an ice-cream. We always ending eating, and waiting outside as there is very limited space inside. Wonderful on great days, as they have plenty of seating space outside, but a little crowded when the weather is dull.
