I have only been to shiploads once but i was like a child on Christmas morning. I honestly did not know where to start. There was so much cheap stuff. I was zipping back and forth grabbing stuff everywhere. My friend kept telling me to go up and down one aisle at a time but i couldnt help myself i kept seeing something cheap. I loved shopping here. By the time i finished i had a trolley over flowing with stuff and was so surprised at how little it cost me. For what i had in my trolley it would have cost me double in a normal supermarket if not more. The store was big, well stocked and clean. I didnt find the staff to be very helpful but the cheap prices made up for that. I could spend hours here shopping.

A good variety of things that are well set out. Plenty of stock available. However, food items can be very close to its use-by-date but it is very good value for money. Service is as expected. Another plus, they always put their margin on (as whole cent values) and don't round up to the nearest dollar like other dollar shops.

If you have an aversion to Bogans this is not the store for you. The nature of the low priced merchandise (similar to The Reject Shop or Chickenfeed) tends to draw this type of customer like a moth to a flame. As a result, it's not uncommon to overhear some pretty colourful language from time to time.

That aside though, it really isn't too bad. Generally fairly clean and the shop is spacious and there are actually a few genuine bargains to be had - just make sure you check things out properly so you know exactly what you're purchasing.

When I'm out at Cambridge, I'll often pop in for a look and see what specials they have, but it's probably not somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit.

Great up and coming "dollar shop". Warehouse style store, with "Shiploads" of bargains. Certainly giving chickenfeed a run for it's money. There are a lot of great bargains to be found there.

It is a pleasure to enter the Shiploads store, particularly the friendly/very helpful staffers.The Dislayed items are well set out !
Prices are very good and should (I hope) give chickenfeed a good run....my opinion is that you are 'Shiploads in front'
