What people are saying about Muswellbrook
EMAIL RECEIVED
"I just wanted to say well done on the design of the Muswellbrook Fair. As a mother with two small children, a carpark that is flat, without bumps and has no obvious gutters is a must. I was SO PLEASED to do a recent grocery shop at Coles and discover how easy it was to get back to the car with a trolley full of groceries and 2 children in it. Whoever thought this through definitely had their head screwed on! :-)
There have been other things about Muswellbrook Fair which have stood out for me so far.
1. I visited Coles on the day it opened. How lovely it was to be greeted at the door with a free green bag and balloons for my children. After leaving Coles I also had a Town Cryer make a balloon dog for my son. It was great also to stop outside the centre and have a sausage sizzle and support our local community.
2. I also took a visit into Pharmacy Select to compare the price of their Baby Formula. I was assisted by a Shop Assistant and I explained what I was doing. The Pharmacist overheard and mentioned that they had the price cheaper than Coles. I said to him that they did but I could still get it at Big W for a fraction cheaper. My comments were definitely taken on board as last Wednesday I walked into Pharmacy Select to find the formula on special!
3. While visiting Muswellbrook Fair on Wednesday last week late morning, I walked into the centre with my baby in my arms and my toddler holding my other hand. I had a baby wrap slung over my shoulder ready to place in the reclined baby seat of the trolley. I was about a good 5 metres from the trolley bay at Coles when the Trolley Assistant asked me did I want a trolley with a baby seat. I said that I did and he walked over and got one for me. I was very impressed. As I started to place the baby wrap in the seat I was struggling to get it out flat seeing I only had one hand free. He offered to help and unwrapped it for me. His kind service is to be commended.
As you can see from the above I am very impressed so far with Muswellbrook Fair. The designers and all involved are greatly appreciated."
