Cupcakes beat flowers any day. Especially VALENTINES DAY.

The other day the people at DelishCupcakes.co.nz sent us some of their cupcakes and we ate them all up very quickly.

So we got to thinking. Valentines Day... LIGHT BULB.

Wheels motioned.

Come in to the MR VINTAGE STORE this Friday, Saturday or Sunday (12th, 13th, or 14th), spend over $50 and we’ll give you a FREE DELISH CUPCAKE. OR come down and just buy them for $5.

These aren’t just ordinary cupcakes. They’re handmade with LOVE, and a custom little Mr Vintage Valentines design is on top. They come individually boxed, sealed with a sticker – ready for you to give to the one you LOVE.

There are 3 flavours; strawberry n vanilla, dark choc with white, and red n white choc. BUT it doesn’t really matter; they’re all ridiculously delicious.

They’re a fellow NZ business, and we really dig what they do. Well. What they make. Delicious cupcakes. So give the gift of cupcakes and t-shirts this year.

Mr Vintage and Delish Cupcakes – Taking care of your Valentines Day so you can focus on the kissing/heavy petting.

had to laugh at Andrew Hore.

The Seal Shooter just loves it. and you can tell. it's all over his face.

The t-shirt of the day is now $19.95!

We thought it’d be cool to do a few new things around the place this year. To keep things fresh.

So we did a bit of math. Chewed our pencils. Crunched some numbers. Scratched our heads. Carried a few two’s.

Worked out that we could actually make the t-shirt of the day $19.95.

We all thought it’d be a good idea. So we just went right ahead and did it.

YUS!

NOW the t-shirt of the day is $19.95 THAT’S AWESOME.

Tell all your friends about me. Like Batman.

at just $19.95 even this kid can now cover up.

Doing 'Round the Bays this year'?

Take a load off. We'll take care of your tees.

SERIOUS X......lol.....sometimes

I had a dream where a hamburger ATE ME!

Introducing Mighty Joe Wharehinga.

Dreamboat. Mel said he has "nice arms"

shame bro

Hayden is back!

The start of the month brought with it an exciting little treat in the form of the returning Hayden.

Now, traditionally, when Hayden arrives back from a spell out, he comes equipped with some of the most exciting, unbelievable and entertaining stories. This time round, not so much. He did have one tale about getting strip searched for drugs at some summer youth event, but that was about it.

I’m sure you’re disappointed too, so I thought I’d post this lovely pic I got from his bebo page.

"I'd be a sexy chick..."

LONG WEEKEND

It's a long weekend on account of Auckland Anniversary Weekend. so we're all going away, which means we won't be back till Tuesday. BUT, just to keep you happy we're offering FREE NATIONAL SHIPPING over the long weekend. enjoy. HAPPY - just like the guys below.

this kid is awesome

I want that one.

take a closer look

Francesca sent me this neat little auction. Check it out.

Girls are yuck.

I'd def hang with this guy.

Corporal Willie Apiata, VC

There’s been a huge furore over those photos published of Corporal Willie Apiata, VC, in Afghanistan. I just want to say one thing. He looks so freaking awesome, even my dear old Mum said, “He looks really tough and cool”.

Joe is considering enlisting after seeing the picture, on the flip side, I feel like way less of a man having seen that picture. It’s a similar feeling I get after watching Man vs. Wild. Bear Grylls is the man, and a far better man than I.

I also see that Millie Holmes/Elder has been arrested again.

That's a piece of poo with decorations on it Millie. from a distance it may look like chocolate or something good and nice, but I assure you it's not. it adds a little bit more to society than you do.

International Week

Being from New Zealand is cool. But it’s cool being from other countries too. And seeing as though it’s errr, International ‘International Week’ (we've invented this event), we thought it’d be a whiz-bang idea to do some internationally inspired t-shirts.

You should have seen Joes face when we told him to design some non-Kiwiana t-shirts – confusion clouded his squinty little eyes and he seemed utterly bemused but decided to have a crack – the first draft he eventually came back with was a NZ map. “no no Joe, non NZ themed t-shirts” we said. So we gave him a few ideas, and we’re pretty happy with what we’ve come up with.

Oh, and a big thanks to Robs mates, who call themselves the 'All Drunks' - they actually came up with the concept and a few of the ideas for International Week. No doubt they were chopping back a few beers, as they do, while inspiration struck. Cheers boys.

We're starting today, so drink it in.

Here's our first effort. China. It Woks.

Whakapapa your Mum did.

On Friday the majority of us went to the big day out. Good things too, cos apparently we angered the Maori Language Commission people over the 'Whakapapa – you Mum did' t-shirt. Joe designed it, and he’s Maori.

Haydens Nips - causing quite the stir.

But seriously, it’s just a cheeky little pun and everyone loves a good pun. Before we released it we asked everyone on facebook about the design, and the feedback was well positive – and to be fair we’ve only received two complaints since the story was covered.

It's Cool To Kōrero. Oh yeah, and we asked our fans on facebook if they found the t-shirt offensive and this one lady hit us with this. I found it funny. what a crazy chick - I reckon she'd be no fun to hang out with.


Q: Hey guys. Do you think our Whakapapa tee is culturally insensitive?


A: No. I believe your gross commitment to Colonizing bastardization of Indigenous Language and Cultural heritage is though. As a Kuia and a Mother of Kohanga reo and Kura Kaupapa Maori tamariki I find your embicilic self serving racist ignorance enhancing passive aggressive Ostrich with butt in the air theft, rape, pillage and plunder approach ...all too sad and predictable for European exiles.

You are a credit to Colonial Schooling ...it not only failed the Indigenous peoples it succeeded in transmitting massified ignorance of which YOU are a classic example Mr V.

Your willingness to slam anyone who challenges your right to steal, pillage and plunder Indigenous Intellectual and Cultural property while you trivialize, hypersexualize and shaft it's Sacred lineage perfectly sums you up. YOU do not own this language. YOU do not walk in respect with this culture. YOU are an outsider making insider claims for which YOU do not have any Tribalz permission. YOU are a classic Colonizing racist ignoramus ...do not pull the ...oh I'm just kidding and its only a bit a fun rubbish here ...I have to raise children in the aftermath of your stupidity for the cheap and nasty thrill of your cash register ego arrogance. YOU do not simply impact a language ...YOU impact a whole Web of Existence for which YOU take no responsibility.

I also have European Ancestors. So don't pull that bull on me that this is acceptable to all Europeans either. It is irresponsible, blatantly commercial gangsta prostitution of Indigenous Peoples heritage ...for a buck. Well done to your Christopher Columbus curse.

Anyway, check out some of the articles if you want to.

My cat's breath smells like cat food.

i do like him, but it's true.

We're back.

So we’re all back from holiday, some of us last week – but we’re almost back


Rob: Was in Matakana with his mates. At 28 I think his Dance Party days are dying down; his focus instead shifting to other areas like marriage and kids.

Andy: Partied in Hahei with a whole bunch of his friends over New Years, the remainder was spent playing playstation, at the gym, eating, and sleeping.

Jay: I spent a large amount of time tanning my thighs. They’re pretty black now – though they could be blacker. Also became a vegetarian.

Joe: Went to Gisborne and tried to impress his old school mates by doing some extreme Water Sports. Broke his arm skim boarding in a move that failed to earn him any additional ‘street-cred’.

Andrea: Went to Matakana and managed to avoid her brother Rob the entire time. Mean.

Hayden: Went to Australia where I’m presuming he got really drunk and did stupid things. Highlight: being given the ‘rubber-glove’ treatment by a cop, on account of the person next to him tripping balls.

Melanie: Played some drinking games at ‘Coro Gold’ involving a hammer, a sock, flames, a buffalo (stuffed for safety reasons), a 9-iron, and some ice cubes.

Phil: Just hung out, had a few curries and rode his scooter about the place. Printed a few t-shirts too.

Francesca: Went to New York and returned with a whole bunch of goodies for everyone – which was awesome. Jalapeno & Ranch Pringles. The best crisp you’ve ever eaten. Easily.

Mat: He’s not really here anymore, and I don’t really know what he did.

Sarah: Travelled around the globe missing Hayden.

And we’ve pretty much all seen/are going to see 3D Avatar.

Oh, and have a look at this. The kid is good.

KFC is open on Christmas Day

legit

302B Great North Rd

I’m super shit at Christmas. Like shopping and stuff I mean. Actually I’m pretty useless at Christmas Day come to think of it – the last two years I’ve had to take a little break during family Christmas and nip off to bed and take a mini sleep.

Traditionally it’s taken a frantic blast of late night shopping. Late night Christmas mall shopping is the worst: rushed, stressed, and congested traffic. I’m not coping well - flustered, sweaty, hungry, shop assistants are asking me if I need help – which I do, but clearly not the type of help they can give me.

Spread the Christmas Love.

There's the goodie sacks.

I don’t want you to experience what I experienced... So we’re going to make your Christmas Shopping even easier by keeping the store open till 9pm tonight, and make it even cooler by giving away some gear. TONIGHT ONLY - come in to the showroom after 7pm and the first three customers who ask “CAN I HAVE SACK?” will get a SANTA SACK of all sorts of goodies for your troubles.

There's my face.

Christmas Debauchery

Sorry it’s taken so long to report back with the results from the Christmas Party on Friday, but I just can’t handle hangovers like I used to… I’ve spent the last few days just wallowing away feeling like someone made me do 18 shots of petrol.

The Christmas Party was highly anticipated this year, with the largest attendance ever recorded – a testament to our rapid growth this year. And it didn’t disappoint. It was a night of drama, competition, revelation and romance. But first, a recap of the amazing race challenge. Turns out my predictions were spot on.

Team A: 2nd
Joe, Andy, Rob, Andrea.
Early predictions of underhand tactics proved correct when the opening task of putting together a puzzle resulted in Joe and Andy ambushing Team B and destroying their almost completed puzzle. While they performed several tasks with aplomb and admirably attended every checkpoint on time, they just weren’t good enough in the end.

Team B: 3rd=
Jay, Hayden, Jared, Matt.
Exceeded expectations by even making it out of the bar and ticking a few tasks off the list. Unfortunately that only lasted about 20 minutes before they were back at the bar – where they set about working their way through the shots menu – missing every checkpoint along the way. Only got kicked out of one bar, which is a sensible effort all things considered.

Team C: 1st
Mel, Sarah, Francesca, Phil.
We don’t really know how they did it, but they did. The power puff girls dominated from start to finish displaying enthusiasm, determination and organization. Not exactly a crowd favorite, but congratulations are in order. Seeing Phil kiss his medal all night made us sick.

After that we went back to work for a few drinks, before heading out to Monsoon Poon for one of the most delicious meals we’ve ever had. Thanks Monsoon Poon – we endorse what you do. A night on the tiles followed at Casette9 and later Honey Bar. We lost a few along the way, and Saturday morning work sucked, but we got it done.

Highlights of the night:

• Jared spewing
• Hayden in a skimpy little white dress
• Jared spewing again

Christmas Party Predictions

So we’ve got our Christmas party today. And there’s only one thing I love more than Christmas Parties, and that’s Weddings. Nohomo - I just love whipping off the tie and putting it around my head for the dance portion of the evening.

In 2007 we went to the Mexican café and got drunk and then did some Karaoke, which was a blast. Last year we got drunk and then went to Spookers, which again was a blast.

So this year we’re doing an Amazing Race type deal where we cavort around the CBD looking for clues and stuff like that. Which we will be doing drunk. There are three teams, and the razzing has already begun. A healthy rivalry is developing, so I thought I’d take a closer look at the teams and their credentials.

TEAM A

Members: Hayden, Mat, Jay, and Jarred
Captain: Jay
Strengths: Underdogs for obvious reasons; their understated preparation means they’re a team not to be ignored, partly because there are only two other teams.
Weakness: A penchant for getting hammered drunk could see this team spending a large portion of this competition up a tree with a 12 box each playing ‘possum’. A realistic outcome.
Media Tag: Party boys with no fear and nothing to lose, except their police diversions.
Prediction: Unlikely victors, they’re quick on their feet and are unlikely to be phased by pressure or time restrictions. 3rd

TEAM B

Members: Joe, Andy, Rob, Andrea
Captain: Joe
Strengths: Several ‘Captain of Industry’ types; there’s certainly a competitive streak in Team B.
Weaknesses: Arrogance, in which they possess an abundant amount. Andy’s reluctance to break a sweat, resulting in muscle loss. And the big question; can Andrea step out of big bro Robs shadow and make a contribution.
Media Tag: Pompous men unafraid of using underhand tactics. They talk a lot but it remains to be seen if it’s all bullshit.
Prediction: The tactical nous of Andy, the silent leadership style of Joe and the can-do attitude of Rob should see them competing for a top three spot. 2nd

TEAM C

Members: Francesca, Sarah, Mel, Phil
Captain: Mel
Strengths: With a particularly female presence, this team undoubtedly has drive and organisation the other teams lack. They’ve copped a lot of pre-party criticism – motivation. In Mel they have a competent leader.
Weaknesses: With Phil being the only guy, there is already a click developing. Key will be gelling and using all the attributes of each member. Three girls and very little physical strength may count against them.
Media Tag: Power Puff Girls. And Phil.
Prediction: They’re not expected to perform, but their heart, determination and systemisation could see them take this out. 1st

The Rat

On Monday we were having our office meeting, just sitting around. We were all performing our usual tasks.

• Andy was cutting the calluses off his hands with scissors
• Joe was doodling some diddles on his pad
• I was thinking about how I need to tan my thighs more for summer
• Mel was waiting patiently with her little note pad in hand like a good student of PR
• Rob’s head was buzzing like an ADHD child about to explode after his brainstorming session.

So we got started when suddenly out the corner of his eye, Rob noticed a RAT stroll in from the showroom through the office and under the couch. Resembling a well-rehearsed Mexican wave, Rob leading the way, we all jumped on to our seats and/or closest piece of furniture that took us closer to the heavens and bellowed out a series of high-pitched expletives - perhaps in a bid to deafen the scampering vermin.

Real Men taking care of bidness.

Personally, I had the toes out that day so no way was I putting the flippers down on ground level to get chewed off. This rat was BIG. And it was quick. So we called in the reinforcements. Hayden came in from out back armed with a rubber mallet, a cricket bat, two of those leveler sticks that builders use and promptly proclaimed his intent “Fuck it, I’ll just kill it”...

It was hysteria; everyone had a prod, I ran out in to the warehouse, Joe stepped on it and it ran over his size 13 foot, it climbed up one of the computers, Andy ignored it and went back to work, and we finally settled on the tactic of luring it in to a cardboard box. We felt this would cut down on blood splatter, risk of infection, and utilise Mel’s lightning reflexes.

We won. Joe and Rob directed the Rat in to the box for Mel to trap and after performing a ritualistic celebratory dance; we released the beast on to Great North Rd. With that, the Rat skipped out of the box and sprinted up Great North Rd and in to the Car Dealership next door. We wish him well and thank him for the most entertaining meeting of our lives.

Happy Birthday Andrea

A big happy Birthday to young Andrea who turned 20 today!

Rob’s new initiative on Birthdays is to buy the whole office lunch. It’s really awesome and the last few months have brought with it a glut of Murder Burger and Hell Pizza to celebrate Joes, mine (Jay), and now Andrea’s Birthdays.

So well done Andrea, and thanks for the lovely Murder Burger. Here’s a little picture celebration of Andrea. Andrea loves going to dance parties, drinking at places like Shadows Bar n Grill, and modeling Mr Vintage t-shirts… as you can tell.

naughty jayden

facial.

This is a picture of my nephews. In this particular photo, Jayden is eye-gouging the shit out of Nikhil. he looks quite happy doing it. It’s my favourite photo at the moment, and it makes me smile. my brothers and me do our best to encourage this healthy rivalry whenever possible. It’s funny, Nikhil smiles and gets all happy when he sees Jayden, but Jayden refuses to look him in the eyes. It’s intense; it reminds me of Kane and The Undertaker from WWF before they were friends again. man I love the Undertaker. What an athlete.

Bloody ol Chappelli

1 February 1981. NZ Vs Aus. Melbourne Cricket Ground. Match 3 of 5 with the series level at 1-1. Final ball. NZ need a 6 to win. Captain Greg Chappell quickly consults the Devil. Greg orders brother Trevor to bowl an underarm ball. Trevor delivers the cowardly roll, and quickly makes his way to the changing room – clasping two one-way tickets to hell for him and his big bro. A dark day for all concerned.

Apparently Trevor later in his career had a breakdown. Oh well.



And yeah, we made this Chappelli t-shirt today. Pretty neat.

Hell awaits

Satan's got the little goatee and everything.

It’s a crappy thing to say, I know, but I reckon it’s a pretty fair bet that this kid will spend some time in Hell at some point in her life. Which sucks for her seeing as she'll be joined by this Ed-Hardy wearing twat whilst down there. gutted.

cock.

New Year's

At this party the other day I had the pleasure of unwittingly taking in a group of teenagers discussing their New Years plans. What are you doing for new years. Where are you going new years. Yeah I totally wanted to go there. Oh my gosh Hannah is going there and she’s such a bitch so I’m totally not going there. Yeah New Years. New Years. New Years.

So here’s what we’re doing for New Years. Totally.

Rob: Attending a Dance Party called ‘Lowlife’ at Matakana, or ‘Mata-Chaos’ as him and his teenage friends call it.
Andy: Unconfirmed. Probably wherever ‘The Feelers’ are playing.
Jay: Somewhere up north, on account of owning half of it.
Joe: Gisborne, and yes. He will be signing autographs and hosting story telling sessions about the ‘big smoke’.
Andrea: Following in the footsteps of big brother Rob. Matakana. Lay off the drugs.
Hayden: Australia. In a ditch using a bottle of vodka for a pillow. Joined by a lady in a cocktail dress of course.
Melanie: Coromandel Gold with her Fiancé Steve. She plans on using the time to do some “wedding planning”.
Phil: "Probably just camping somewhere". Hippie.
Francesca: Just to old New York for her.
Mat: Somewhere wearing an Ed Hardy t-shirt and sporting a fake tan.
Sarah: I have no idea what kids like her do these days.

I chose this picture because it just screams 'New Year's'.

a potatoe shark

The other day on facebook this guy I know Nilesh did a status update.

“if you type potatoe shark in google, and search images there will be a potatoe with a shark face. God I love the internet”

So I searched ‘potatoe shark’ and sure enough there’s a potaoe with a shark face. It’s really awesome. look.

Nilesh is so funny. We call him Mex (on account of him looking like a Mexican) but he’s actually Indian, as the name Nilesh might suggest. But he does look Mexican. This photo I've added is from this engagement party we went to the other day. There I tasted the most delicious spicy pizza. oh my goodness.

Mex. Actually Indian.

Clever little advertisers

While most advertising people are stuck-up cocaine snorting sorts, it's good to see some that are still clever. probably inspired whilst on a late night trip to the bathroom for an activity of another type.

Toys for Tees.

FACEBOOK. Some think it’s just a useless tool only good for looking at people’s photos and having a moan about work. Not us. well not entirely. we do look at photos. big time. But the main reason we get amongst it at work is to interact with our customers.

And the other day we asked our fan base to decide how we could giveaway our My Little Pony toys that we’d been given to use as giveaways. Sonya came up with this great idea of giving them to the Auckland City Mission. She got an onion soup for her troubles.

So. We’re giving the City Mission a whole box of t-shirts, as well as the My Little Pony toys. Which makes us feel good. AND…

It got us thinking. We should do more for the City Mission. They’re good people and they help kids who don’t get awesome toys for Christmas. So. Over the next week we want you guys to come in and give us your old toys. Here’s how it’ll go down.

• Dig up your old toys that are still in that old box.
• Think about how stoked the little kids that get them will be.
• Have one last little emotional playtime with them.
• Come in to the Mr Vintage shop (directions here)
• Give us your toys (not too old just vintage cool).
• Chose whatever t-shirt you want.
• It’s yours for only $20.
• Go home and feel good about yourself.
• Put your new t-shirt on and look good while you’re feeling good.

We’ll be offering this discount for 1 week only, so you’ve only got the week of 30th Nov – 4th of Dec to get amongst it. SO GET AMONGST IT.

uncanny

Phil x 4

Phil our screen printer keeps so much from us. He didn’t even tell us he was in a band called OpShop. They’ve got lots of great singles like ‘One Day’ and ‘Snoozing through an alarm’. Crikey.

creative photos are sweet.

Whatever way you look at it, that's freakin cool. having cats in their pockets for the family photo. amazing. the dude is the white is completely stoked - I bet it was his idea, he looks like the zany type. and that kid in the blue and red shirt. well. he's equally impressive. but they both know there's another brother just waiting in the wings with his pocket ready.

Joe Carrington-Wharehinga

This is our sexy designer Joe. He's super tall, around 100kg, a designer, part-time photographer, likes basketball, and can surf. anyway. On Sunday the 22nd of November 1983, Joe Carrington-Wharehinga was delivered in to the world. It’s said that he was the only child not to give his mother any pain during birth. We’re well glad he decided to make the journey up from Gisbourne – by foot I might add – to the bright lights of Auckland City and our Mr Vintage office. If you want to know more about Joe. like really get inside his head. simply visit his staff profile. or add him on facebook. zing.

lol.

This is a laugh. Whether it's real or not I'm unsure. But yeah. That'll learn him for deep-throating the mic in such a manner.

All Whites

The All Whites are my heroes.

Pretty chuffed about the Football result over the weekend. What a performance – and its pretty sweet to see some of the rugby boof-heads finally realising that the All Blacks are not the team they used to be. Long gone are the days when the All Blacks are an exciting and dominant force in World Rugby. Mike/Mark Delaney played the other day. Yeah. Exactly.

But yeah, back to the Football. What an occasion, from what I’ve heard, the TV coverage did the crowd little justice – and I was blown away by what I saw on the TV coverage – I think it’ll be one of the deepest regrets of my life that I didn’t go down to Wellington for that one. Thanks Hayden for having your boxing on the same night as the All Whites crucial World Cup Qualifying fixture, you’re a real champ like that.

What's this? Fans standing up and supporting? Wouldn't see that at a rugby game.

VICTORY!

Hayden had his big fight on Saturday night and it was a glorious occasion. We kicked it off with a neat little BBQ at Uncle Tonys – gee whiz that man knows how to dominate a 6-Burner – before heading to the venue to soak up the sweaty atmosphere. I could describe how resounding his victory by technical knockout was, or I could just show you a video of it. The only disappointment was that he didn’t grant Rob his wish of seeing a bit more showmanship. Rob wanted Hayden to celebrate by climbing on to the ropes and saluting the crowd. Oh well. Next time.

Old Hammer Hands

Hayden 'Hammer Hands' Bentley

This is Hayden. He works at Mr Vintage. This coming Saturday is the biggest day of his life. Hayden’s been doing boxing training over the past 12 weeks and this weekend all his hard work, sweat, black eyes, and lack of partying culminates in a fight to the death. We support team Hayden.

Boxing has been the ideal outlet for Hayden. It’s crazy. You meet this little man and you couldn’t meet a nicer dude. He’s relatively polite, well-mannered, friendly, and a bit of a laugh. Give him like 12 beers and he turns in to some kind of aggressive fighting machine. Ask anyone in town.

Oh yeah. we have a little wager on this one. If he loses his fight, Rob will draw a picture of a diddle that Hayden has to kiss. It's all on the line here.

L&P: Tourism Roadshow. Episode 1

Tourism in Paeroa is flailing and Morris is going on the offensive. They're efforts will make you laugh and cry. just great.

Maurice Morrison (Deputy Minister of Tourism to Tourism Paeroa), in all his wisdom, has decided to make Paeroa NZ’s next tourism hot spot. He has blindly selected semi-talented local Colin Brown, to pilot The Tourism Paeroa Roadshow van around New Zealand.

The Bishop and Me.

Sorry about the lack of blogs lately. I’ve been busy living my life. Reoow. Nah just jokes; I’ve just been well busy with Mr Vintage stuff, but I’m back now. Today a nice lady even emailed in to say she was missing the blogs. That was a really lovely thing to say; I thought the only people that read this blog were my Mum and people that were looking for prizes to win.

The Father. Joe our designer is an avid fan of his specs and swagger.

Thinking about what’s been going on in NZ lately, it’s pretty slim pickings really – Brian Tamaki aside – we seem to just be coasting along nicely. I’ll refrain from saying too much about the Bishop/The Father/Jesus or whatever he goes by these days. He’s good for a laugh though, and I’m stoked he’s around to entertain me. Lately when it’s been really cold and I feel like I’m at the end of myself I just look at my ‘covenant ring’ that the Bishop gave me and then I smile again for ages and feel all warm and sunny in my belly. He is such a genuine guy, and I really appreciate that he told me I was allowed to copy his hairstyle. I am working on it at the moment, but I need a bit more length and I’m not sure how he gets that greasy feel to his hair but he was nice enough to recommend this product called ‘Gel for real Men’ that you can obtain from the $2 shop which is such a bargain for what it is.

Done.
