Lifeline reviews
7 Definitely not one of the best experiences I have had. $25 for a hat that wasn't priced yet signs EVERYWHERE, stating 'no price tag, no sale'.
Pricing in this op shop is ridiculously high for an area with multiple same name op shops in Toowoomba.
It's a typical warehouse style op shop that needs a good clean or dust.
Overpriced,! More expensive than actual antique stores for below average items
Great op shop. Ashame that the workers have to put up with all the noise from the bottle return next door.
Large range of items. Seem to be way over priced for many items though. Some items I looked at can get same price or cheaper brand new.
Specifically to their Containers For Change section.certain staff just cannot count accurately. The amount of double handling is ridiculous. So I tried the bag and drop system with them and didn't get even a quarter of my money back. When I inquired they pointed at a massive pile of bagged bottles and said maybe it was there or maybe the bag broke. I called the scheme and they promised my refund. I only received a token amount. So decided to give them one last chance. First time went ok. Second time they miscounted again! Worst part is that they throw them into the bays so quickly that you cannot demand a recount. In frustration I went to Tomra. Such a dream in comparison. Can't get miscounted there. Its all automated. And even when it is busy there is room to move and it is still much quicker because you don't have to sort anything and you don't have to take the lids off your bottles and you don't get all sticky and dirty. AND their disabled park is right near the door.
Way too expensive to say these items are given to them. Who do they help with the money they take.
And don't say counciling.
I think it's appalling the amount Lifeline are charging on items when you can go to Kmart and get items if not the same but cheaper!
It's a charity store ripping off the poor, how do you expect the poor to be able to afford those prices (dog blankets $10-$30, children clothing $10+ an item & I'd hate to know adults clothing prices!) no matter what brand the item is does not matter because that means nothing to the poor that need warm clothing or blankets for there familys!
I'm absolutely disgusted in the Lifeline stores!
