Puff Station

Puff Station in Sefton Park, South Australia, is a family-run tobacconist that’s become a bit of a local fixture. Open seven days a week from 9:30 AM (closing at 7 PM Wednesday through Friday, and 5 PM other days), it’s a convenient spot to pop into after doing your shopping in the area.

The store’s got a mixed bag when it comes to their selection. Some visitors reckon they’ve got a huge range of tobacco products, while others say it’s more basic. What we do know is they stock your typical tobacconist items like papers and filters, and visitors mention the name-brand stuff comes at reasonable prices. Speaking of money matters, heads up that this is a cash-only establishment, so make sure you’ve got some notes in your wallet before heading in.

The service here seems to be a bit hit-and-miss, if we’re being honest. Some customers rave about the staff, particularly mentioning a bloke named Ali who they say is a proper larrikin and knows his products inside out. Others reckon the service could use some work. But that’s often the way with local shops, isn’t it? You might catch them on a good day or a not-so-good one.

One thing that makes this place stand out is its convenience factor. It’s apparently a handy spot to duck into while you’re doing your other shopping, which is always a plus when you’re trying to tick everything off your list in one go. While some visitors absolutely love the joint, praising its professional staff and competitive prices, others have had less stellar experiences. Fair dinkum though, most regulars seem to appreciate having a local tobacconist they can rely on, especially one that’s open every day of the week.
