TSG Buddina

TSG Buddina in QLD is your typical local tobacconist, stocking all the essentials like cigarettes, rolling papers, and lighters. The shop’s had a bit of a mixed run when it comes to customer service – some visitors reckon they’ve had brilliant experiences, with staff who remember their regular customers and even have their usual orders ready before they reach the counter. Others, well, they’ve had a few not-so-great encounters with the staff.

The shop’s open most days, running from 8 in the morning till 6 at night Monday through Friday, except Thursday when they stay open till 8 pm. Weekends are a bit shorter, opening at 9 and closing at 5 on Saturdays and 4 on Sundays. Though we’ve heard from a few customers that sometimes they might close up shop a bit earlier than advertised, so maybe give them a bell if you’re planning to pop in late in the day.

For payment options, you won’t have any drama here – they take cards, EFTPOS, and cash, so you’re covered whatever way you prefer to pay. Price-wise, some visitors have mentioned they find the rates pretty reasonable, which is always good news for the wallet.

Look, it’s a bit of a mixed bag with this one. Some regulars swear by the place, saying the staff treat them like old mates and provide top-notch service. But there’s been a few complaints too, particularly about inconsistent closing times and the occasional less-than-friendly interaction. If you’re in the area and need your tobacco supplies, it might be worth giving them a go during peak hours when they’re sure to be open, and you can judge for yourself.
