Please note that from Sunday September 18 there are so many blogs I can't comment on due to 'Blogger' playing up again, so many posts I can't click onto on my list as well..my apologies.
Inside the General Store in Evandale where I've never been before it wasn't what I expected to see. I thought I would be seeing groceries and all manner of items one could buy for the house, you know 'things' you can't find anywhere else, but I was wrong. To me it's a shop that sells a few home make biscuits, blankets, rugs, odds and ends including books on various subjects, even gorgeous jumpers and cost about $300 to $500AUD each, but they are beautiful. I managed to sneak a few photo of inside part of the store.
That's a store that sells everything you can think of!! : )
ReplyDeleteWell nearly Catarina, I certainly could find plenty to purchase in there but I didn't.
DeleteIt looks very similar to shops here too - our National Trust Shops, and boutique shops especially in tourist villages. They always have an interesting and eclectic mix of things to buy, but as you mention are usually expensive.
ReplyDeleteEvandale is somewhat a tourist town Rosemary and a good one to browse in.
DeleteUn negozio tipo emporio dove si trova di tutto e di più, bello. Ciao Margaret e buona settimana, un abbraccio Angelo.
ReplyDeleteThat's true, many things one can buy and look at before choosing. Thank you.
DeleteVERY different (and I suspect more expensive) than the General Stores of my youth. It would be fun to wander round in though.
ReplyDeleteYes it's expensive but what they sell seems to be of good quality.
DeleteSo good to see a store like this again. Once upon a time, Mount Dandenong in Melbourne tends to local crafts and produce like that. This town is one of the many pleasures to roadtrip in Tassie.
ReplyDeleteIt is a good little town to venture into, coffee shop, art galleries along with a leather shop. Interesting about Mount Dandenong, just driven past there only.
DeleteI think it is a very difficult shop to describe. I wonder how long it has been open. Answering myself, continually operating since 1843.
ReplyDeleteWell there you are Andrew, you found out how long it's been operating...long time.
DeleteI love shops like this! So many things that I want to buy from this store :-)
ReplyDeleteShops like this one are ever so interesting and there are not too many about either these days unfortunately.
DeleteIt has a bit of everything. Is it similar to that huge store for everything in Latrobe?
ReplyDeleteYes Diane, somewhat similar but different...haven't been to the one in Latrobe for years, must do that sometimes soon.
DeleteParece interesante, seguro que encontraría algo para comprar. Feliz domingo Margaret.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you would too Teresa as they did have gardening books and scenery ones too along with many others, different subjects.
DeleteNice article guys. Have a nice day.

Thank you.
DeleteI enjoy browsing stores like this-- and I don't feel a bit guilty if I don't buy anything. Your pictures catch the place nicely!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill you never know what you will find.
DeleteThe store looks like a large assortment of things, I like those types of stores a lot, there is always something that you like to buy.
ReplyDeleteBest regards.
Always something to buy as you say..
DeleteNo están muy bien ordenados los productos con estanterías que separen esa gran cantidad de productos. Con tanta acumulación de cosas, es fácil que muchas de ellas, pasaran desapercibidas.
ReplyDeleteBesos.
Totally agree with you - I would say it's a bit messy.
DeleteGostei destes olhares.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e tenha um bom Domingo.

Thank you
DeleteQuite the assortment of stuff! Why did you have to "sneak" a few photographs? I would have thought they would have been happy to have you promote their business.
ReplyDeleteYes David you think the staff would be happy about having photos taken inside their store, no not this lot they were looking at me like a hawk but I don't know why!
DeleteYes. Built for a movie of fantasy.
ReplyDeleteThat's true.
DeleteA very interesting store with a huge variety of things.
ReplyDeleteEven gumboots there too.
DeleteQue confusão, lol
ReplyDelete.
Domingo feliz

Yes, it's a bit like that but it makes you look for what you might want.
DeleteWhat a nice shop I would like to walk around there.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Irma
Lots to see in there if you can find it.
DeleteLooks like a fun store to spend time in. So many interesting things. Yes this is indeed an old style General Store.
ReplyDeleteSandy's Space
That's for sure.
DeletePure natures shop, excellent.
ReplyDeleteThat's very true Bob.
DeleteI am glad you are able to take these snapshots. I would love to take time to look through those items.
ReplyDeleteWe were in that shop for sometime looking Nancy.
DeleteОчень интересное место.
ReplyDeleteЯ тоже люблю такие магазинчики.
The shops are good to browse in as you never know what you will find.
DeleteThis shop looks really great! Especially wooden kitchen things looks so nice and healthy. Greetings.
ReplyDeleteInteresting the wood, made from Tasmania wood, one of our sons used to do that work when he was a late teenager.
DeleteWonderful place to explore.
ReplyDeleteFor sure it is John.
DeleteUn espacio que abruma con tantos objetos, pero bien captado.
ReplyDeleteYes that's true, so many things to see.
DeleteWhat a cute little shop... I would love to browse there... Greetings to you from Viola.
ReplyDeleteDid you see anything about Queen Elizabeth's farewell yesterday? I have to say I've never sat in front of the TV for so long... Hug.
I did watch the Funeral not all of it as a lot of it was when we slept due to time difference, and it was raining hear and when not it was cloudy outside so I sat and crocheted.
DeleteSi in effetti in questi giorni ci sono stati un po' di problemi con blogger.
ReplyDeleteBellissimo questo negozio, mi ci perderei per ore a guardare ovunque.
Most annoying is blogger at times! Sweet shop with so much packed into it.
DeleteI loved looking into this shop, thank you Margaret :)
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome Denise.
DeleteWhat a collection. Yes sometimes I too sneak some pics in stores
ReplyDeleteAh! good on you for taking photos inside a shop, it's fun but I don't do it often.
DeleteMucho de todo pero mal ordenado. Vaya lio para encontrar algo ahí Margaret.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo.
It is a mess but I'm sure if you asked one of the staff members where something was they would be able to find it immediately...I prefer tidier.
DeleteWhat an amazing collection of stuff/things, I enjoyed seeing your photographs.
ReplyDeleteYes, blogger has been causing problems again!
All the best Jan
Pleased you liked these photos of something different from me.
