Peeps were always friendly whenever I buy something. Since they’re closing down, this is a message to say happy retirement to the folks! Thanks for being a supplier for all my student needs — homeware and the likes. I went ham on the closing down sale and got a good quality chopping board and cleaning supplies.
Basically, it's an all you can find store from stationery, souvenirs, DIY tools, cuttlery, lunch boxes, to beddings and other household stuffs. Located in the city centre, just around the Old College and Nicolson Street area. You may find something that you need here. Just check it out.
Went there to buy something to fill a hole in my wall. The owner did not try to make me go for the expensive stuff, instead he gave me good advice about what I should do to save up on unnecessary materials and tools. He knew I’m a student, so he was actively trying to get me the best results for the lowest price. He also explained the whole process of filling in a wall, sanding it, and painting it over. 10/10 experience.
Stocks most gadgets such as adaptors etc. also stationery and toys. Photocopying is the cheapest in town at 10p per sheet for A4 black and white.
They pretty much have everything you may need for a cheap price. But be careful what you buy… If the product doesn’t work or breaks straight away you’ll not get a refund or be able to exchange the product. Just happened to me because apparently there’s “no guarantee” that it will work lol
Very handy store, can find pretty much anything you would need in a house at super low price. Staff is nice and helpful
Do you think it's okay to fly fascist flags now? There is a war going on in Ukraine, children are being killed, millions of people are left without homes, light, heat, and you have a Russian flag hanging in the middle of your store
Used a couple of times for computer/ phone accessories. They are well stocked and always have the cable you need. If you want something immediately and don't mind paying a couple of pound more for the convenience then well worth a visit. Staff always helpful.
I had a good experience, though I am a red-headed white lady from the US -so that might make a difference. Store had most things I needed from kitchen gadgets to hardware items. Staff was friendly and helpful in finding things and answering questions.
