Lifeline Supa Store

If you love op shopping, this is the David Jones of them. They have antiques n kitsch, furniture, toys, collectibles, books, clothes, shoes, cutlery, crockery, cookware, décor, paintings

This place is incredible. It has everything and probably the kitchen sink too. There is more stuff than will fit in the store (having a Mary Poppins’ bag sort of effect) and exploring the entire two levels of the massive old barn will take you an hour or two. Most things are in really good condition and reasonably priced — old furniture, whitegoods, crockery, cutlery, clothes, shoes, toys, bric-​à-​brac, novelties — if you can think of it, it’s probably there. Some rare and antique finds are a possibility. Just don’t get lost!

Holy dooley. I was lucky enough to discover this treasure trove open on a Sunday. Welcome to Wilston’s Lifeline Supa Store. It’s a two storey jungle of rare as hen’s teeth second hand wares. On the lawn outside of the store, there was a $ 89 mint condition black leather wheelchair as well as a whole range of bikes, some for little ones, and some for adults.
The rooms are decked out like small themed rooms, in a similar fashion to how some antique stores set out their goods for sale. The only difference is that you’ll pay less than half the price you’d pay at an antique store. They’ve got a violin for sale there for $ 50, imitation Chasseur slow cookers for $ 59 (which is cheap, let me tell you), old school pentax and polaroid land cameras (enquire about prices) and vintage coffee percolators for $ 20. They’ve got loads of your standard op shop finds: a killer book and record collection, toys galore, and troves of crockery and cutlery. It’s not a bad place to come looking for some new furniture either. They’ve got a lot of stuff that looks like it was taken from your grandma’s house, but in saying that, there are some great retro finds in there.
It’s not great for clothes– it’s more of a odds and ends, nic nacs kind of place. While you’re upstairs take a look at the original, aged and worn wooden trusses that hold up the curved corrugated iron roof. I can assure you, if you dare go in here, you will walk out with something great and unexpected.
