Now this one really is as close as it gets to home. It also happend to be very popular. Granted it’s in a great location plus it has longer opening hours than the others nearby by an hour or two either side of opening and closing. It’s also in a not bad group of shops with a games shop, video hire, hairdresser, pizza place and take away fish and chip shop. I find there are some things I can actually get cheaper from the IGA than I can at the big Supermarkets. Like daily things such as milk and bread. Last week they had Buttercup large sized bread loves out for $ 1.39! They also sell Jap Pumpkin in their fruit and veg section. Not even Coles or Woollies sell Jap and it’s the only one I buy. Their fruit and veg is actually quite cheap too. I managed to grab some amazing strawberries here when they were out for $ 1.99 a punnet, I was buying at least a punnet a day. They usually have 2.5 or 5kg bags of potatoes cheaper than the supermarket. And they usually have P & N brand soft drink cheaper than the supermarket. Sometimes they have some fantastic specials with as much as 50% off the regular price so be sure to browse through the catalogue when it arrives just in case. This IGA also has a full X Lotto counter inside it, as well as a bakery counter with sweets and hot pastries to buy and best of all, or so my child says, they have a real Slushi machine with cola or raspberry! So good on a hot summer’s day! Staff are fantastic and do such a good job on the public holidays when they are so packed the line goes around the shop through the isles, but no one can go anywhere else — it’s about the only place open!
