    Frequently Asked Questions

    What Customers Love

    Buyer beware, there are numerous price discrepancies between shelf tags and prices on the items. I do mean a lot, the worst case I've ever seen in a store. I purchased two dishtowels clearly marked at 6.99 and didn't check my receipt until later and they both rang at 9.99. No, I didn't miss-read the tags. It's a shame, bc I liked the store, but how hard is it to put shelf tags that coincide with the item? I wish I had looked at my ticket before coming home, but I do expect to be charged what the tag on the items clearly says. That's six dollars, not 60 cent. If this is their regular business practice, they're stealing from their customers. It's a shame the employees and managers don't care. The store had many employees on the floor and not one of them looked at me or gave me a greeting. I usually don't care about this, but if I'm going through the trouble to write my first bad review on a business then, no holds barred. The cashier had the personality of a potato. I visited this store on Monday, 19/01/2026 shortly after lunch time.

    Awesome store, even more awesome staff. This store is full of hard workers and a bunch of old hippies wasting the time and patience of the staff, but they keep up a smile and positive attitude. We went in and enjoyed a well laid out and stocked store with helpful staff. Alex at the checkout was amazing, super helpful, patient, and friendly as she got us checked out quickly and ensured we were signed up as members and got a discount and points. Working solo, she got us and others through quickly and happily with helpful tips for this and upcoming visits.
