Everything on the sign

Ten things we do, and we do all ten every day.

The corner shop that actually stays open. Papers before work, a meal deal at noon, a parcel drop on the way home, a lottery ticket on Saturday.

Newsagent

National and local papers in every morning, seven days. The full magazine wall — motoring, women's weeklies, puzzles, football. Ask about a standing order and we'll put your paper by under your name.

Papers we carry 11
  • The Sun
  • Daily Mail
  • Daily Mirror
  • Metro
  • Daily Star
  • Daily Express
  • The Times
  • The Telegraph
  • The Guardian
  • i
  • Manchester Evening News

All confirmed by the shop. Titles change from time to time — if one comes off the shelves this is the line to update.

Convenience Store

Bread, milk, eggs, tinned goods, cleaning bits and the thing you forgot. Priced to be worth the walk rather than punished for the convenience.

Off Licence

Beers, wines and spirits, chilled cabinet included. Challenge 25 — if you look under 25 we'll ask for ID, and we'd rather ask than not.

Beers & wines 25
Stella Artois Budweiser Carling Heineken Guinness Casillero del Diablo Yellow Tail Villa Maria Campo Viejo Barefoot Hardys Jam Shed Oyster Bay Birra Moretti
  • Corona
  • San Miguel
  • Foster's
  • Peroni Nastro Azzurro
  • La Vieille Ferme
  • Carlsberg Pilsner
  • Kronenbourg 1664
  • Strongbow Original
  • 19 Crimes
  • Trivento Reserve
  • Isla Negra Seashore

Confirmed by the shop. The twenty-five are Britain's best-selling beers, ciders and wines — NIQ, 52 weeks to 21 March 2026 — which is how the list was drawn up rather than a claim in itself. Six carry their own mark so far, each taken from the brand owner's own site; the rest are names until their artwork can be got hold of the same way.

Over 18s only, Challenge 25 in force. Drink sensibly — drinkaware.co.uk.

Vapes / Tobacco

Disposables, pod kits, refills and coils, plus rolling tobacco and papers. Over 18s only, ID required.

Cigarettes

Full range behind the counter. Over 18s only, ID required — no exceptions, not even for a regular.

Coffee / Drinks

Machine coffee poured to go from six in the morning. Cold cabinet of soft drinks, energy, juice and water, kept properly cold.

Sandwiches

Made up fresh each morning — sandwiches, wraps, rolls, pasties. Grab one with a drink and a snack and it's a meal deal.

Confectionery

The full wall of it. Sharing bags, single bars, kids' pick-and-mix, crisps and nuts, and the boxed stuff when you've forgotten an occasion.

Pay Point / Parcels

Top up gas and electric, pay your phone, water, council and TV bills, and withdraw cash. Collect+ parcel point for drop-off and pick-up — bring the QR code on your phone, no printer needed.

Parcel carriers 12
Royal Mail Evri InPost Yodel by InPost DPD Amazon DHL eBay FedEx UPS Parcel2Go Wiseloads

All twelve, confirmed by the shop. Most are from PayPoint's own media library, so they are the versions PayPoint itself publishes rather than a scrape from twelve different places. Note Yodel now trades as Yodel by InPost — that is their current lockup, not a mistake. Relay, which was asked about, is not a Collect+ carrier.

Bills & top-ups 7
  • Energy top-ups — gas meters & electric keys
  • Utility bills
  • Mobile top-ups
  • TV Licence
  • DVLA International Driving Permits
  • Park Christmas Savings
  • Payment Exception Service

PayPoint publishes the service types but not a list of named suppliers, so none are named here. If you want "we take British Gas, EON, United Utilities" on the page, that has to come from the shop's own terminal.

Cash in store 4
  • Cash withdrawals
  • Cash deposits — banking app or debit card
  • Cash out voucher
  • Cash machine in store

Both a cash machine and cash over the counter, so there is a way to get cash even when one of them is empty or down. Withdrawal and deposit limits vary by store and by bank — worth stating this shop's own once you have them, since it is the question people ring up to ask.

Ticket sales close at 19:30 on a draw night — three hours before the shop does, which is the one thing worth saying out loud here. Line prices are the Lottery's own and do not change. Tonight's jackpot does, so it is not printed here and these do not link out — buy your ticket over the counter and the shop keeps the commission.
