  • Just as good as bardot junior

    This is one of my favourite store that I love shopping at for my daughter. At one stage I bought every girls cardigan they had and not only is affordable but it comes with cute price tags. There was an animal print pant they had at bardot junior that costed around $60 but I found a similar pair that almost looked identical at the kidstore for $20 you'll find so many good stuff

Thank you for allowing me to review your gorgeous store and products! Looking forward to shopping there again!- (I have gorgeous photos, but unable to post them as the website tells me they aren't photos...)

  • kids store web site

    when looking around the kids store web site there were very limited items for you to have a look at before going into there store 2 dresses for girls along with a swim set baby's were one set and boys were limited to i be leave they would benefit if they were to expand what they advertise on there web site this would encourage people to check there store out. if they were to add more products on there site and have a person on there where you could mix and match clothes on them this would be great and when you go to the store you would have a fair idea of what you are going to purchase i really enjoyed my review experience and loved having the chance to view the kidsclothes store i will be recommending this store to friends and id happliy go back and shop there again

  • Great quality reasonably priced.

    I would have loved this review! I love Kidstore clothes, they're excellent quality, reasonably priced and they have pieces that are just a little bit different. Their sizing is spot on and their sales are great too. The clothes we do own have washed and worn well. Highly recommend although my experience with sales staff is that they very eager.

  • So cute and funky

    I love The Kidstore. I went in there quite by accident one day and it was one of my best mistakes. They have a great range of funky clothing without being trashy and too over the top for little ones. They also have a great range of non toy gifts. We have purchased many a present at The Kidstore.

  • was sad to see fountain gate store close

    I worked across from the the store at fountain gate and I loved the clothes that they had. Great quality and beautiful colours. The only downside to this store was it's price. It was more expensive at times than bardot kids or pumpkin patch but although their clothes are great they aren't of the quality of those stores. In saying that I did find quite a few cheaper things there and miss the brightness that the store brought to the centre.

  • Out of my price range

    I didn't get chosen for this but found The Kid Store very expensive so whilst I didn't buy clothing which I must say looked of good & high quality I bought 2 little dolls for my 2 nephews so hopefully they will like them. There were some items on sale but nothing stood out & still too dear for my budget :)

  • Hit and Miss

    As the title states. I have been able to find a few great items for a reasonable price, but most items are over-priced and do not look or feel that great. I would even go as far as saying some pieces of clothing look like they have way too much frills and print on them that they look cheap.

  • poor

    My daughter got given some tee shirts from the kidstore it was cute but after the first wash it stretched out of shape marks on the shirt that i can get off other clothing of my daughters didn't come out, Also colour faded after one wash . Also i find it on the expensive side the material is quite thin and the clothing has quite a funny smell to it and you can smell it when you go in the store it smells almost of some like a chemical in the clothes. Sorry but compared to other stores it is on the expensive side considering the quality

    I love the style in the kidstore.. but for me on a strict budget.. its out of my price range which is a shame because not many stores have a variety for boys.. if I had money most definitly would shop here all the time.. I cant justify spending 60 dollarsuick

  • Kidstore in Mornington is THE BEST

    I love the Kids Store. I bought all my babies clothes there and they were so lovely and such great qualitiy. After many many washews, they kept not only their shape but also their vibrant colour. I also love the designs. I find them old fashioned yet modern at the same time.

  • Quality of clothes are excellent!

    This is a follow up review for the Kidstore.

    After a few months of wear, the shirts I bought for my toddler are as good as new. The prints have started bright and not even begun to fade, although I do take care to dry inside out. They haven't lost their shape at all and still fits perfectly.

    If they can put up with a toddler at childcare, I would recommend their clothes to anyone who likes their clothes to last!

  • Affordable

    I purchased three gorgeous jackets for bub from The Kidstore, and i love them all. I've received so many compliments for them every time bubs wears them. Also, even after going into the wash a few times they still maintained their quality which is fantastic as i know that bub can wear them over and over especially with winter coming.

  • Yep I’ve been a member of purkle for years but don’t get much these days on it to be honest compared to what I used to het

    Reply

  • Thank you for sharing this. I hadn’t hear of Purkle! Being a single mum and only working part time means every extra dollar is handy. I enjoy doing surveys and reviews in my downtime anyway, so I might as well earn while doing it! I’ve just joined, so hopefully it will be a good experience.

  • This is so helpful thank you so much for this entry! It was very helpful since I think we all need a side hustle in todays economy. Especially women who do parenting at the same time while working full-time, I appreciate you all and you are doing an amazing job!

  • I just read this article and I can’t wait to sign up. There’s nothing better than being rewarded for giving your honest opinion on various topics that may also be important to our local or state community, or even topics of interest to the country. Based on the comments of other people in this community, you can reap many benefits while helping companies make the best decisions for their customers. I can’t wait to start enjoying this portal, and many thanks to the person who brings us such fabulous opportunities to earn some money.

  • Tried it before and it’s definitely one of the better companies to do surveys with. They make it so easy, the website is easy to navigate and the surveys are generally not too long. It’s easy to do whilst on the couch or filling in time! Definitely worth checking out to earn some extra cash.

    Reply

  • Purkle is fun! Not a lot to earn from but if you like filling up surveys or voicing ypir opinions, it is definitely worth a try. Sometimes there are survey on music which are the most fun ones and also, these are the ones that reward the most. Not bad to earn a gift card or 2 in a year!

    Reply

  • I love Purkle. While the surveys don’t award massive sums, the surveys themselves are never long. Other platforms want a minimum of 10 minutes which can be hard to commit to during day time chaos. It doesn’t take long to accumulate a decent sum, and I use gift cards as a way to treat myself. They can be redeemed for grocery gift cards. I’ve cashed out over $200 in a year and a half. Give it a go!

    Reply

  • I’ve been with Purkle for a few years now. One of my favourite survey and money earning platforms. Easy to build up a balance and redeem your earnings. Love sitting down and completing my purkle surveys, to see balance grow. I use this to treat myself or put towards presents for Christmas

    Reply

  • I’m not having any luck with purkle. I tried to sign up for it and it just wasn’t working so I emailed them and didn’t hear back, I just tried again now and managed to create an account but then the activation email contained no link to click and actually activate my account. From the comments here it looks like I’m not missing anything anyway

    Reply

  • I’ve earnt a bit through Purkle and other survey sites. They are great passive income. I don’t mind that Purkle pays in gift cards as it provides a great opportunity for me to buy something for myself as opposed to putting cash away for expenses. But cash is always good!

    Reply

  • Surveys have been great to keep me awake while feeding my newborn at night but I agree with some of the comments that the time commitment is too high for the benefit. I do not believe i will continue using it once baby starts to sleep through and get through feeds quicker.

    Reply

  • I tried Purkle for approx 1 year and quite frankly it’s really not worth your time
    Very few surveys and very low amounts paid
    Worst thing is it only pays in gift cards so no cash
    I gave up and just stuck with my original survey site that I’ve been using for years
    It makes me $120 average in PayPal a week without too much effort and supplies the family with an annual holiday without touching the household budget

    Reply

  • It’s a shame I’m already a member and can’t enter the competition. Surveys in general – including Purkle – can be a good way to earn some money, but just remember you won’t earn much from any one survey. It does add up over time though, and isn’t particularly difficult to do.

    Reply

  • This is a nice way to earn a bit extra money but you won’t earn a lot. Some surveys time out too which is annoying or hey just stop working half way through. If you have spare time and want to do it then why not. I sometimes do these on the train on my way to work and it slowly builds up to allow you to get a reward. It all helps.

    Reply

  • I joined Purkle ages ago but to be honest I have never used it and totally forgot that I joined let alone that I could be earning money and points while being at home. Any opportunity to make some money and try to help financially, off I go to rejoin I think!

    Reply

  • I have joined up and hope to gain some bonuses. I realise it won’t be a lot but it’s good to know from genuine people on here that have been part of purkle that it is a real site. So many scams out there so good to know this isn’t one of them.

    Reply

  • Purkle is a great surveys site. I’ve redeemed vouchers from there. You’re not going to make a fortune from it but you do definitely earn for your time. I haven’t done any for a while as I just haven’t had rhe time but I’ll definitely get back into it. The vouchers always come in handy.

    Reply

  • The inner sceptic in me will prevent me signing up! I’m not against a survey, however I would rather do one here and there when I can with the incentive of winning something big! Even a $100 voucher. At the rate I win, it works out better than signing up for this.
