I was happy when I found this little shop, they have a great range of variety items, I'm into craft so I found that helpful.
The staff are helpful and know there stock and that impress's me, I do like that in a shop.
Great price's and great range, well worth a look.

I found the Canvas Factory via one of the group buying site's as they have deals on those all the time.

Having subscribed to their site I now find that they have their own deals as well.
I have had three prints done by them and they are beautifully done I have had friends and family comment on them as they are hanging proudly on my wall.

I have decided to have more made as the deals they have I find unbeatable but having said that, I am also very happy with their work and fast delivery.
They are an online business only, they have a few different emails that you can contact them on that is also fast return.

They do what look to be the most amazing Wall displays price up to around $750. To oil, metal photo's a lot to choose from. Now they also do glass.
I bought the smaller framed photo's and will be putting together the display for myself

The day was there the young girl working did not want to be there, I can't say she was rude but she was very glum so I can't say I stayed in there very long. It was a little hard for her to get out of her chair to show me where to find what it was I wanted. Maybe I'll go back during the week and not on a Saturday to get better service.
I have been in here before and they have been sort of helpful.

They stock a variety of things, Lollies, craft, a good range of party items and so on.

Parking in the street $1.30ph

I have walked paste this little shop many time's never going in, this time I walked passed and saw plants and as I'm in a veggie patch sort of mood I chose a few, they have the basic vegg herbs and a few other hedging plants, on the day I bought some vegg and herbs and was happy with the price's of $2.50 tub seedlings and $2 for the small pots.

Inside so many other things craft, animal products, the puppy pads were great a pack of 5 for only $2, they are a bit smaller than the ones in the supermarkets but heaps cheaper.
There is so many other things and I found them all to be a reasonable price, well worth a look if your in the area.

Metered Parking on the street $1.30 ph

I have been to a few of these as there is three in Bendigo and this one seems to have different price's to the other's.
They are cheaper than other chemist's and have a great range.
But know you price's when you go into this one as I think due to them being away from town they tend increase their price's a little.

Heaps of parking also disable parking

House hold detergents, Gardening, car, craft, lollies, and lots in-between.

I took my grand-daughter toy shopping and found lots of cheep things for her to play with when she comes to visit.
There was some name brand toys there's and names children love.
I picked up some great name brand soap I have used for years in a 4pack for only $1 so it does help to keep your eye's open.

They are outside of the woolies supermarket complex. Heaps of parking also disable parking.

I have only shopped here once when I was in town but found them to be speedy Very helpful as I knew what I wanted but had to described it to the staff member as it was somewhat in puzzle form.
Now I have grandchildren and I do go down sometimes I will call in again.

A small camping/caravan park with 1 to three bedroom cabins, all linen and basic kitchen equipment is provided to the cabins that also have a parking spot, split system to the cabin for your comfort.
There is an indoor camp kitchen with again the basic's, tables and chair. Shower/Toilets and Laundry with ironing facility's and a place to hang you washing for the campers.
Their is a game's room smallish out door play area for the kids and a small pool.
We stayed in a two bedroom cabin that was comfy neat tidy and clean. We decided to stay an extra night and the staff were only to happy to help by shuffling people around a bit. The staff are friendly and happy to help or direct you to where you can get what you need.
There is maps and tourist items at the front desk.

Value for money these day's but never enough staff.
I would like to see something not so grandma-ish for the larger size's and if it is nice with the appropriate age there is never enough of it as it sells out so fast.
Good range of home wear's at mid range price's. The sale's aren't so bad, but you need to be quick if there is something you want.

There is parking, But Not enough Disable spots.

We had a great time at the open plain zoo.
We did join the friends of the zoo and from that you get discount's in the shop and notice on what's going on in all three zoo's in Vic + it's nice to feel you have done a little something for Victoria's zoo's.

It is well worth a bus ride through the zoo as you get to feel so close to the animal. There are other Zoo experience's you can take also as well as night one's.

There is a canteen there for hot food if you wish or get a pass out to collect your picnic.

Heaps of parking, Disable parking.
