South City Shopping Centre

I've been going to South City since I was 15! That's over 30yrs ago, when they had an elevated part in the food court for the smokers! I also modeled there for the D.A.R.E, Hugs, not Drugs promotion. I even still have the outfit! Since moving back to the inner city, it has become my local mall and although it's one of the smaller malls around Christchurch, It has a fabulous $2 shop, a reduced price supermarket, multiple well known shoe stores, Pagani, Cotton On which ALWAYS has very low price sale items, 2 book stores, Ihb, a great food court with 2 sushi bars, Tank, Hungry Wok, Subway, Teaseme, an ice cream bar, a Japanese Bakery, a barber/hairdresser, 2 kids 'nooks' AND a playground which brings welcomed relief to frazzled parents, especially during the holidays when they also always have at least one kids FREE holiday activity. This Easter It's 'Build a bear' and the pure delight on the kids' faces as I walk past reminds me of similar times with all my grown children. In fact, I took my first born there for lunch every weekend for years. Such great memories. And now it's been my local again for nearly 8 years. I've watched shops come and go aswell as staff from not only those shops that closed but also from the shops that have literally been their forever along with a handful of staff that have also literally been there forever!nThey also have THE cleanest, most hygienic, 'mall public toilets' I have ever been in! Which does say a lot because I have the OCD that comes with a fear of germs... JS LolnAnywho, there's my novel review for ya!

Food court choice is limited as there is no fast food but different varieties of cuisine is there.it has sushi,indian, Mediterranean,Chinese,bakery and coffee & juice stall. there is chemist house

They have lots of stores doing promotions, shoes, clothes and many. Went to cotton on, they have many pretty clothes on promotion, and really enjoyed the shopping here. The lowest price is only 5 dollars for clothes! Is much more lower than other branches, just that only on selected cloth and size limited. They have also 2 dollars shop, can buy some basic things here like containers, hair accessories, baking Equipment in lower price. Besides, they have also food stalls here, sushi are many here

I was a bit shocked, to go there, and find no cash flow machines, there use to be three. I like to get set cash out, for various things, and as I normally go to the Chemist, I wanted to get cash, but there wasn't a machine, just a stupid little machine for the bit coin. Apparently they want to install a 'Next' machine, but that has a $2.80 charge, for using it. Very inconvenient, as trying to get to a machine in town, is not easy.

A proper mall with everything from a car stereo installer to a discount drugstore/pharmacy and more. Two bookstores, health and beauty, clothing, hair cutting, cell phone repair, sporting goods, a dollar store it's $2 Dollar Things Plus! where everything is $2.50 or less, thanks exchange rate! and a nail salon. Lots of eats here too.nnHuge parking lot that was not very well lit at night.
