This review is for ASOS, Sydney NSW

verified email - 17 Jan 2013

What - only 14 reviews so far?!?! I can't believe more people haven't been raving about ASOS.

I started buying clothes from ASOS about 18 months ago and have been buying from them once in a few months ever since.

These guys just get online shopping so right: easy website navigation, fairly accurate product description, clothes that are pretty up-to-date with recent trends, fast delivery and pretty efficient returns / exchange in the event that the product doesn't turn out to be what you thought it was. Oh and did I mention FREE delivery to Australia? I don't think they have a minimum purchase for free delivery.

Recently I read a book about how a lot of products these days are made by (or at least the raw materials of the products are produced by) businesses with unethical practices (for example, they use slave labour who don't get paid at all and are abused often). It's great that ASOS has a Green Room selling items from businesses that try to be more sustainable than others. It's not perfect / ideal yet, but generally the Green Room is going in the right direction. At the moment however the stock is very limited and doesn't get regularly updated, so hopefully this Green Room will grow bigger and more popular over time.

This review is for Vigorous Thai Massage, West Melbourne VIC

I've been to a few massage places in Melbourne CBD and so far I haven't found any place better than Vigorous Thai. They have a range of different services available - from 10-minute neck + shoulder massage (if you want a quick lunchtime pick-me-up) to 2-hour massage sessions. Their rooms are nicely dim and the music is relaxing (unlike some massage places that have no rooms and you just get ushered into a corner with some flimsy curtain and you can still hear people talking etc!). Every masseuse is different - some better than others - but overall I'm happy with their service.

Great value-for-money (considering the price and portion), good quality, quick service... No wonder their business does so well. No complaints.

Approximate cost: $8

This review is for Dessert Story, Melbourne VIC

Their signature herbal jelly + taro balls dessert is yummy. It can be served hot or cold. Service is efficient which is great, but it also means that when there's a long line of people waiting to get in, they're pretty efficient in kicking you out! Luckily, most of the time I take away rather than dine in, so getting kicked out is usually not something I regularly experience.

Approximate cost: $6

This review is for Papillon Day Spa, Docklands VIC

I went to Papillon to redeem one of those group-purchase coupons. The masseuse was friendly but the massage was cut short. I'm not sure why, considering we weren't running late. Not sure if I'd come back to pay full price.

Approximate cost: $40
