Red Cross shop in Civic

I may be a little late to the party, but did you know that there's a Red Cross shop in Garema Place, Civic?
I found it by accident while heading to The Green Shed's Garema Place shop to waste some time while waiting for a friend to finish work.
It's light and bright and well organised, with a 'boutique' feel to it to go with its inner-city location (and prices).
If you're in town it's worth checking out. You never know what you'll find...

Red Cross shop
165 City Walk
Civic
Monday - Thursday: 9.30 am - 5.30 pm
Friday: 9.30 am - 7 pm
Saturday: 9.30 am - 5 pm

Interstate update

I had business in Goulburn last week and took the train, which left me a couple of hours to check the Goulburn op shops (which hadn't been updated on our spreadsheet since at least 2011).

A couple have disappeared (Does Anglicare still have an op shop in Goulburn? I couldn't find it...)

And Vinnies have moved: they're now at 136 Auburn Street, conveniently just down from the Red Cross shop.

Renovation reveal

Outside of Vinnies' Queanbeyan op shop.
 Vinnies' Queanbeyan shop reopened this morning after its weekend renovation, and I Op was there to see what was new.
Man in a tail coat standing next to a line of mannequins in wedding outfits.
 We were given a tour of the changes by Queanbeyan Centre Manager Aaron McNeil, who had dressed up for the occasion, in a tail coat*.

Aaron's background as part of the Melbourne IKEA management team informed the redesign of the shop. 'Not only can we fit in 40% more stock than we used to be able to with the old design, which is great for our shoppers' he told us, 'but we now have the ability to rearrange the shop quickly to reflect stock levels and shopping trends'.

There are still a few finishing touches which need to be added, like signage and some displays, plus Aaron is hoping to have the shop repainted sometime soon.
