Absolutely ace to walk past and see a full display of Australian items In the window in preparation for Australia Day. I had to stop in and purchase something! The woman that served me was grouse, 10/10 will return!
Lovely people. Murray is very knowledgeable and delightful to talk with, as are the other staff. Opp shops are run by volunteers, who can be in short supply, so do be kind. Anyone criticising build up of stock, think about offering as a volunteer to help, instead. And there is a sign outside on the front door - that clearly says no food or drink in the store - one of the conditions of entry. It's much better to shop at the small opp shops than the bigger overpriced ones. Thank you. And keep up your great work.
lovely couple running the shop, very polite and caring. Bought a stuffed toy elephant for my girlfriend and was told that all the stuffed toys were washed before being put out! very impressive! loved the prices, I also bought a Fosters beer mug which I love! Everyone should pay a visit, I will be returning soon:)

About this shop
St Augustine's is a traditional, volunteer-run Mentone opportunity shop rather than a polished chain store. Supporters value its lower prices, personable service and changing small-shop finds, while other recent visitors have reported a less consistent atmosphere and some congested back stock. That makes it best suited to patient bargain hunters who do not mind an old-school browse. The independently registered charity has also raised funds for participating local church congregations and their community work.
