Great head of store people i think madeline 🤌👩
The lady with dark curly hair who helped me this morning was great, really friendly and helpful!
Maria is amazing very helpful and friendly!!!
Great shop. Lots of gifts for presents or just to pursue for ideas.
Great colours and range. All sorts from cards to handbags. And also Rollie brand shoes. Quality gifts for grandkids too.

Friendly staff, and usually have whay I'm after.
The owner was spotted taking pictures of my 2 year old daughter when I confronted her she said “ she was on the phone to an employee”
I have requested to see the security cameras from the place she was standing out front of!
I have made a police statement because no child should be filmed in a public place by some random lady!!
Absolutely disgusting and I would not recommend coming here!
Especially if you are a mother to young girls

🥳Good Luck Australia!🥳 Celebrating $200 Million today!!🤯🤑
Atmosphere great mugs are funny. F Monday f Tuesday ect socks. Great
Nice place to buy cards for any occasion.
Lady working was not interested in doing her job at all. I waited by the register for a long time waiting to be served because she was too busy talking to people. Ended up just walking out because it was clear I would see Jesus before being served by her.
Very friendly
A few comments adding to shopper “judy”
I was actually waiting for Madeline outside to pick her up from work while you were at typo doing your last minute shopping right at closing. I saw from outside that Madeline was very stressed and had a line up until past closing, yet she was still inside serving customers until past 5:10. If you really came in at 4:40pm, 20 minutes before closing, and you only made it to the counter at 5:02, you spent over 20 mins deciding on what to buy in a store that was closing, and then insisted she individually wrap each of your mugs.
Considering your retail background, one might expect more empathy. Madeline advised on coming earlier for such requests, a common courtesy regardless of one's background. A 1-star review seems unjust, given Madeline's extended assistance, allowing you to stay beyond closing and her shifted work time. She maintained professionalism, never blaming you, and even accommodated your late request.
Gratitude for service past closing should be acknowledged as a commendable customer service standard instead!!!

went to typo to do some Christmas shopping and was met with an amazing staff who were super helpful. special shoutout to a lady with dark hair and glasses (think it was madeline), she was extremely bubbly and had amazing suggestions. made my shopping experience so much more streamlined and stress free
staff was super friendly and helpful with my shop. madeline helped me choose gifts for my kids that they absolutely loved.
Really bad shopping experience, bad attitude staff named Madeline. The store closes at 5pm and I came in around 4:40. There was a long queue when I lined up so it turned out to be 5:02 when I made the payment. The staff talked in a very impatient and rude manner saying that it’s my fault and I should have came earlier, making her work difficult because she’s closing the store late. It’s not my fault that the queue was long which caused her to close the store late. I’m very unhappy about this shopping experience.
A friendly place for your reading, magazine, puzzle books and stationery.
Lovely helpful and friendly staff.Great cards and gifts
The young people working the counter where so bright and bubbly just a pleasure to interact with
I like going to Typo when I am in the city. Not much exciting stock tospeak of. I used to spend quite a bit of time browsing but not any more. So sad.
The store has amazing products but we went today to find some presents and the manager or I’m not sure about the role of this woman in the store but she was literally harassing people to buy. She would firstly greet you very kindly and after she would star pushing you to buy every single product possible. It was absolutely uncomfortable. Also, we couldn’t help but noticed how pushy she was with the girl that was working with her (the girl was wearing a butterfly outfit) she was micromanaging her in such a horrible way. We went trying to find nice Xmas presents but left stressed and without nothing and we were not the only ones, the people around us were making the same comments.
the staff were very friendly and efficient. Always friendly faces.
I was served by Sandra today who was absolutely lovely. She was very helpful when I was telling her what kind of gift I was trying to buy. She made some great suggestions. Amazing customer service
I went to buy a present for a friend and Bree helped me picking the best option, taking the time to search for the most accurate present and being super nice. She deserves a pay raise 😉
My husband and I visited Mott and Mulberry today and the staff were so lovely and welcoming. Tying to find something original for a friend's birthday and left it to the last minute as usual !! Wow it was hard to choose as everything is so beautiful and different from other gift shops we had been to. Thank you for making us feel special. You will be seeing us again soon.
Nice products, but the older lady who served us today seemed too busy training a new person or whatever was happening, to provide a proper greeting. She did however acknowledge a lady next to us while we looked at things on their counter and we were there longer. I'm trans female and I can't help but feel she had opinions about how I was dressed. Part of me regrets spending over $50 here honestly.
Absolutely love the service at WILD! They always greet you with a smile and assist with any thing you ask of them! Amazing at gift wrapping anything you bring in, big or small! Thank you!
I was in Brisbane for a birthday party and decided to get a haircut whilst shopping at Indooroopilly. Needed to buy a birthday card and came across PaperJamm. I was impressed by the great product range and lovely staff.
AYYY Typo is so cool! I reckon all the cool water bottles people use in school are probably from here :) It's super awesome, has lots of relatable, funny, interesting and personalised merch for you to buy. Hope you enjoy cause in my opinion it's one of the best North Lakes stores ;P <3
Although they didn't have what we came for, we came away with way too many other items. So be warned! This place has so many cool nick nacks and fun things, just try and leave the store empty handed.
I bought gluestick from this shop and 15 min later after my purchase the paper pieces separated from each other. When I asked my money back, they refused it that even if it is a faulty product they do not refund. Be careful when you buy something from this shop.
Everything you'd expect from a newsagents, great staff, always friendly
Thank you for having just the birthday gift I needed in your shop. Sooo hard for an 80 yo diabetic. Spencer Flynn 🧦 are perfect x3 🙃
Together with a beautifully illustrated yet hilarious Squirrel Design birthday card and all wrapped up with a bow, I was ready to go pronto! NB the two lovely ladies at the counter were warm and sunny and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a breezy experience.

Great place to shop for CHRISTMAS AND BIRTHDAYS I love shopping at Typo they have all sorts of everyday items. I highly recommend Typo to anyone that like a laugh 😃
This store is so cool!
Every card that you can think of is stocked here...quirky and unique gifts for anyone and everyone. There is a HUGE giftware line of socks of all kinds and the most beautiful wall full of journals it is hard to choose.
They are well staffed, service is prompt and friendly and staff are helpful.
If you want special wrapping paper or a specific colored ribbon or the perfect gift bag...I'd say you'll find it here. An absolutely delightful shop and extremely well taken care of by good staff. Color coded, neat, tidy and all in order. If I worked there I'd be proud to be on that team 👌

Good range of quality gifts, bit on the expensive side. Great place for a browse
Paper Jamm, has a great collection of Cards and Gifts. Always find what I am looking for.. particularly when I am looking for that Special Birthday Card. Also find a little extra something to add to gift, when purchasing for close friends & family.
My wife and I have been coming to this Nextra at the time of this post for roughly a year now. And as it happens never really had any issues with the staff for the majority of the time, however when we went in there to do our usual weekly purchase of magazines and the occasional scratchies my wife went looking around the store at the sales for a present for her grandmother. All went well while in the store but just a second after we left the shop the "lovely" staff lady who served us yelled out to myself and my wife to stop and then demanded to get my wife to let her search her bag for some apparently stolen items. Now my wife has absolutely terrible anxiety and wouldn't take a flower from a local garden let alone steal from a shop. This "lovely" Nextra staff lady accused her of stealing very loudly in front of the entire entrance to the under cover carpark we allowed her to search the bag adding that when it's over we would really appreciate an apology for the absolute humiliation and embarrassment we suffered from this false accusation. Never happened not a single shred of humility was shown by this lady who very rudely told us that we could go now. We have never been so stunned and embarrassed as we felt while she berated us for stealing something in which we clearly did not. Really disappointed that despite the constant routine of getting our stuff here was traded for humiliation and we couldn't even get an apology in the end. Will never go back again while she darkens that doorstep
I'm actually part of the cotton on group company so I understand about reaching kpis, personal and store goals but I had an experience at this specific store that left a bad taste in my mouth. A middle aged lady was serving me and did the typical buy a tote bag but I already had one which I showed her, then we continued on to perks which I said I was Team Member, all is good but as she realises this she makes the comment of "even more reason for you to buy a tote bag" which I'm disturbed by because I've obviously have supported the foundation before, we continue on and she asks if we want any other foundation goodies while practically begging "help a girl out" which I am disgusted by because I'm still a customer, when I serve customers I don't like to guilt trip them into the extra goodies, I give them options and my opinion to see if they'd like those products, but this worker just had bad customer service and obvious upselling which left me feeling yuck for being forced to buy something I didn't need.
Pretty cramped - they have most of the things you expect to find in a newsagents but crammed into a slightly too small space, plus they often have stock delivery boxes left in an aisle which makes it harder. However as i said they will likely have want you want - decent range of magazines, puzzlebooks, kids toys/crafts, cards, gifts, lotto, stationary etc, & the staff are always friendly.
Nice range on unique items, staff are always super friendly and helpfull.
A little tight to move around.. Definitely not pram or trolley friendly

Great place friendly staff very helpful all ways smile keep up the breat work
Customer service on point the older female in this store is so helpful and always greets farewells you with exceptional service evertime I'm there. Great product's tpo always something different on each visit
Whilst the product range is ok, some of the staff are overbearing! We’re not blind, we can read that there are multi buy sales happening. And when it comes to purchasing “just the card thanks”, if I wanted a tote bag, a $5 deal and a water I would buy it.
I went in to claim on some old scratches and lotto tickets. The gent that served me went above and beyond what I expected to try and help me claim prizes on all the tickets. Note to self, you can't claim on tickets from 2010, but that didn't stop the staff member trying to help.
All the items were neat to walk around in, a great place to find a Christmas gift for these upcoming weeks. Offers a variety of items such as cards, mugs and glasses, and much more.
Fantastic customer service from the manager at this store.
Served by Joel and Jackson... WOW what wonderful service from these young men impressive staff training. Will 100% be shopping more often.
Thanks Jackson and Joel!
Thanks Jackson and Joel!
Nice little local business located left side of the discount chemist
Friendly staff in here. Always pleasant how they treat their customers. Always smiling. Well stocked with the last minute stationary items. Plenty of variety of cards as well.
Very good service
This is my favourite Typo store. The girls are always so positive and cheery. You get good vibes as soon as you walk in. The girls are so helpful and always give me compliments. A good range of products, and you can find most items in this store that are shown online on the website. The line for checking out is always a bit long, but I’m not surprised that the store is popular due to such lovely service.
Heaps of Disney stuff
A very beautiful shop with lots of good quality items but I wish the shop was a bit bigger it is often cramped and i don't go in so I'm not in the way
A good little shop with a surprising number of quality products at cheap prices. Staff were very helpful.
Nice range of cards, gift items and knick knacks, a bit pricey.
Friendly staff were very helpful, a wide variety of gifts and reasonable prices
Good little gift shop. lots of religious items for baptism communion and confirmation. cute gifts for all occasions
Paper Jamm is my favourite card shop. They have a huge range of cards and gifts plus very friendly staff too. Best of all they have a great range of Australian owned and made cards. Better still, the prices are similar to imported cards from different countries.
I was shopping this morning
Thankyou to the lady with short hair.
Fantastic service.

Lovely store! Staff members are always so friendly and helpful :)
Good store with lots of novelty items. I’ve pre-ordered 3 re-usable face masks with date of delivery on 17 August - SMS received on the date as promised. I’ve picked up the items and one is missing. It’s an inconvenience and disappointing to say the least because even if your customer service is good, it is not acceptable if delivery fails. Items should have been checked before confirmation is sent. Ultimately I just want to get the product which I did a few days later.
Very small. Well presented. Very cold even on a sunny winter's day. Two ladies were very helpful and chatty.
Very friendly and helpful staff who will order specialist products (like Posca pens) if your requirements aren't in stock when you call by. Online orders for a few select products are possible too.
I love this store! They have the most unique and beautiful gifts, and great customer service. I've often gone shopping for gifts for other people and ended up buying for myself, too... I recently placed an order online and everything arrived so nicely wrapped. I didn't want to open it, but happy I did!
Random things but can make a difference in your life for a while.
Extraordinary variety of best cards paper ever. Classy Nick knacks graduation prezes mugs etc
Fast & efficient, always polite and helpful.. 👍
Great staff, well defined knowledge of products and services.
A happy, friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

I can always find the right card for the right occasion in this place. They have got so many things and the service is always amazing. Definitely recommend.
It’s easy to have high expectations of any news agents after being at Toombul’s Nextra. The store at Chermside is much smaller and has a much smaller range of gifts. They do still have a decent magazine section, cards and gifts. Their gift range can be a little bit more expensive that one might expect but it’s still a workable News Agent. It’s usually clean and staff tend to be easy to approach and welcoming.
I have taken a few informal photos just to give you a sense of some of their gift ranges. Still some pretty things to choose from.

A lovely shop that stocks many unique jewellery, candles, socks and leather goods. I would have purchased more items from this store if the customer service is not so appaling. A handful of times I went into this shop to buy gifts I was ignored (no hello, goodbye or even a smile from the staff member). The only interaction I had with the staff during these visits were when I was paying for the items I was purchasing. Such a shame because the store is lovely but the customer service is very poor. As a result I shop elsewhere for gifts or unique jewellery!
The staff there are friendly and they call this place a two buck shop for a reason.
Great lots of stock but not everything is two bucks in fact I didn't see anything for two bucks.
Excellent range of cards and gifts.
Always excellent courteous friendly staff and owners address the regulars by name. They a very dedicated and compassionate team. Service very high on their priority list.
Love this store. There should be an option fir a sixth star as this store would be worthy of it. A joy to browse around and always can find a suitable gift for male, female, friend or partner. If you are stuck for a gift you will resolve it quickly. Left to browse or extremely helpful staff with good ideas. If that isnt a great experience, at check out the offer of gift wrapping is always appreciated and the final product is a gift you will enjoy giving to a fortunate recipient.
Love the things i bought.
They do the preorder collection for Ticketek tickets. I had VIP so they couldn't help. The staff were so friendly and gave good advice about entry rules at Perth Arena. Nice well organized shop as well. 😎
They have a whizz bang photo copying machine - but claimed they only do faxing. I have a $80 photocopier at home that scans! I'm sure their massive machine scans. And below is the reason I believe they won't allow scanning!
After faxing 6 sheets - she then tells me $9. If she had told me this beforehand, I would have made alternative arrangements. Not up front with their extortionate prices.
I feel completely misled and ripped off!

Great variety of gifware and stationary etc. Fast polite service.
From purchasing our Footy Teams 50+ UV fishing shirts, abundance of activities for our children and our favourite magazines the friendly staff made all the difference to our family shopping experience. Thank you!
Such a helpful lady sorting out a 2 week battle to find my Ticketek tickets within 1 minute!
