“The Oxfam bookshop has an amazing selection of books and music CD's. It is so much more than a shop as many campaigns are organised from there and Asylum seekers make up some of the staff, as they learn English and help each other out. The volunteers are a variety of people from students to vintage ! All helpful about books, music and Swansea. On the way from/ to the main train station, so ideal for picking up a book, or asking directions. New books in every day and always something to buy.”

“One of my most favourite shops in Swansea. Love this little gem of a book store as it’s got loads of things for sale other than books. A very colourful store with lots going on. Very small for what it is though and there’s not much room when there are customers with buggies in there. Staff are helpful and friendly. Can be a bit messy on times but that’s because it’s such a popular store.”

“Excellent customer service, friendly staff. I post parcels there regularly. The staff know the kind of service I require and are always very helpful. It's the only post office I am very happy to use. Not a negative thing to say about the post office and shop. Thank you!”

“The store is always kept tidy and clean, it smells good too which can often be a turn off for people. The staff, mainly volunteers, are always friendly and helpful! The clothing is of good quality and organised well, easy to find what you are looking for, worth asking if you're after something specific as they have storage upstairs. Trendy, highstreet labels at really reasonable prices!! Jewellery, games, videos and DVDs this place has everything! ”

“I have visited WHSmith in Mumbles on many occasions and I have always found the staff to be very helpful and friendly. They cannot do enough for you and they are always extremely polite, even though they are often so very busy. Lovely shop!”

“It had been a long time since I was last in this particular store, but I wasn't disappointed at all by the layout, or by what I needed, as I not only easily found what I'd been looking for (artist's materials, including fine point pens) but I was also more than pleased to discover several items I'd not realised they stocked (coloured inks, and nibs for same, plus coloured fine point pens)!”

“What a brilliant little shop, everyone was so friendly, bought some beautiful vintage jewellery, charity shops are information exchanges - a valuable part of the community , as an effective way to give used goods a second life, not just throwing them in the bin , that is wasteful and churlish.”

“The bloke working was very helpful and friendly even showed me that I could get a multipack of the item I wanted for the same price as one single item everytime i been there had great service”
