Kumon is all about self learning and i see it in every center i go to. Parents take one glance and they believe that because there are no teachers and only high school or university assistants, their kids don' t learn. This is incorrect in most cases. Self learning is the best way to go in most cases.

The drinks are great tasting most of the time. Some instances, the pearls are over cooked- causing them to be quite soft and melt in your mouth consistency which is NOT the way it's meant to be. Other times, the pearls can be hard. However, I suppose some like hard, soft and medium. Nice range of flavors. Though, I wonder how many spoons of sugar the put in my cup...

Approximate cost: $3.50

You walk into the store, and look around. For once, you are probably hoping for the sales assistant to come up to you and ask you if they can help you with anything. However, i hung around for 5 minutes, and not a word. I tried again next week, and the same thing occurred. I'm starting to even think half the lollies are already expired cause no-ones interested!

Wendy's is a classic...The ice cream, the sundaes, the shakes, you name it! They're always coming up with new promotions to give to customers. Also, past 4pm on any weekday, they give out FREE hot dogs!

The staff treat you as if you're a regular. They offer a range of meats and are constantly out in the mall giving out free samples. The hygiene also looks great- everyone in hair nets gives you a sense of 'security'.

Well priced watches. When your watch is broken- just bring it in and they would be glad to assist! They adjust the length for you, over and over again, until you see it fit.

There's not much to do and not many prizes to be won. Holding a birthday party or event there is usually not possible- however it did occur once. Its not very spacious- everything in there, i.e the air hockey table is a bit cramped.

Approximate cost: $15

Holding a birthday party there is reasonably fun. Lots to offer. Many prizes to be won. The food provided is not that great...i.e Party pies, etc. The pricing may also be a bit much but there's discounts if you bring a bigger group of friends!

By signing up to their online website, you are given their card with a 30 dollar voucher to spend in their stores! However...the makeup is quite expensive. The sales consultants are actually quite nice. They approach you before you approach them.

The drinks are quite high quality and the pearls are usually soft. Many flavors to choose from, however it may appear to be a bit over priced for a small cup.

Approximate cost: $4
