“Beautiful Napier op shop with high-quality secondhand merchandise – I found some lovely Christmas gifts in the China area.”

“The Carlyle Red Cross shop is terrific. I believe Catherine and her charming assistant have worked hard to keep the costs low in this shop. I adore their client service. However, I’ve noticed that prices have risen in the last 3-4 weeks, and it’s become a little out of sync with op shop prices. I’ll keep going in, but there’s little that piques my interest.”

“This is Napier’s best op shop. I’ve been going there once a week for almost a year. Lovely ladies who go above and beyond to assist. Prices are also extremely fair. You can always get a good deal here.”
“I’ve been to this op shop several times, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. My favourite brown boots are from here, and I just purchased a lovely green corduroy outfit. Thank you very much, ladies!”

“It’s a typical charity shop in Napier. So you never know what you’re going to receive, but you can sometimes find some excellent offers.”

“I called to see if they would accept some used furniture at their new Napier location. The lady was quite helpful, and two men arrived at my place within 45 minutes to take the stuff. They were courteous and did an excellent job. Excellent service that helped me and, hopefully, others. Thank you very much.”
“I started as a volunteer and am now a store supervisor. The volunteers here are kind and thoughtful. The area is tidy, and we place donations that are neat, clean, and purchaseable. Thank you to everyone who donates useful items. And our beautiful volunteers are great for giving us their time.”

“They have some excellent products at extremely affordable rates. Very humble people; I had a great time shopping with them.”
“The workforce was pleasant, and the prices of the products were reasonable for an op shop in Napier. I give it three stars. I just felt some of the linen on the shelves should be better labelled so you knew what were single and double items rather than having to go for the labels on the items. It depends on what you’re looking for in each op store. So, in general. It’s a decent place to shop.”

“I’ve been shopping here for years and always discover something unusual and at an incredible value. Knowledgeable staff members who carry out their tasks in a casual yet professional manner… make for a nice shopping experience. Thank you, Save Mart.”
“It’s the size of a barn. It’s difficult to find without a map or local assistance. There is plenty of parking. Beautiful bale-lined entrance. There’s a lot of ‘product’. Not as inexpensive as most others, but significantly less expensive than, say, Farmers.”
