TSG Mentone

TSG Mentone in Victoria is one of those local gems you stumble upon and keep coming back to. The staff here really make the place special, visitors say they treat you like a proper person, not just another customer walking through the door. You know how some shops can feel a bit cold and impersonal? Not this one.

They’ve got a ripper selection of tobacco products, and they’re particularly well-stocked with RAW accessories. We’ve heard they keep all the major brands on hand, so you’re pretty much guaranteed to find what you’re after. The prices are pretty competitive too, with deals like $30 for 25 grams of Amber Leaf and $50 for 50 grams, plus they chuck in free papers with your purchase. Beauty!

The customer service here is top-notch. The staff are known for their helpful attitude and friendly phone manner, which makes sorting out what you need a breeze. Even if you’re not quite sure what you’re after, they’ll point you in the right direction without making you feel like a galah. People often mention how the manager’s a real champion too.

They’re open Monday through Friday from 9 in the morning until 6 at night, and Saturdays they’re there until 4pm. Just keep in mind they’re closed on Sundays, so you’ll want to plan ahead. They accept all the usual payment methods, including EFTPOS, cards, and cash, so you won’t be caught short.

One thing that really stands out about TSG Mentone is how consistent they are. Whether you pop in first thing Monday morning or late Friday arvo, you can count on the same friendly faces and reliable service. It’s the kind of place where you walk in knowing exactly what to expect, and they deliver every time.
