As stated below, this is an average newsagency with standard prices. They stock most magazines, and all stationary you need if ever you have an emergency. However, I would prefer to buy stationary from either Kmart or Officeworks. Magazines are fine to buy from here because they are the same price everywhere.
This is a small post shop in UNSW near the Matthews Arcade. Depending on who is serving you, the staff can be friendly or a bit less friendly. Today I asked if I could get a pack of stamps, and the girl (probably a student herself) said, "No...I don't think so". It wasn't very helpful. She did tell me the cost of posting a letter overseas but didn't let me know if I could buy more stamps from the shop. Anyway, I know what to do now, but it was a bit strange, her response to my question.
This cafe has a few vegan options, salads, wraps and pastas. They sometimes change menu from day to day, but there's always something I can eat here that is healthy. I've had roasted vegetables with rice before, and it is delicious. You can choose to take away or eat there. It's a nice atmosphere to eat in.
They have healthy and tasty food here. I bought a salad with lettuce, and you can add your own ingredients, from a wide selection. I like the beans, pumpkin and other vegetable toppings
Approximate cost: $8
I had curry vegetables/potato with rice. It's probably not the healthiest thing to eat because who knows what the oil content is, but it was tasty.
Approximate cost: $8
I like the fresh vege spring rolls that they make here. Last time I went, it was $5 for a pack of 3 rolls, which I think is good value. They have noodle soups and sandwich rolls as well.
Approximate cost: $5
I regularly buy sushi rolls from here for lunch when I go to UNSW. They cost $2.50 per roll, which is not the cheapest, but it's not as expensive as some. I like how they have vegan options, such as the carrot and avocado roll, and the tofu roll.
Approximate cost: $2.50
Typo has nice designs in their stationary, and I find them to be cheaper than Kikki K for similar quality. Their shop is nice to browse in, and they occasionally have sales on certain items. Their notebooks are pretty and good quality.
I was surprised to find a Chanel in the Westfield Shopping centre in Bondi Junction. I love Chanel's Diorshow Mascara. They also have very pretty eye palettes. If you wear make up a lot, and want good quality, then this brand is excellent.
I like Sportsgirl's designs, but I feel like I have to wait for things to go on sale before I buy because they seem quite overpriced. It's a shop I'll come and browse at first, and keep in mind the clothes that I may buy when it's on sale. Just gotta be lucky for them to still be in my size.
