Supernews

Amazed to have seen today that this shop has now closed down. Hopefully the other branch in town will remain open.

Supernews couldn’t be handier for those about to embark on a journey from Liverpool Central Station. With a range of confectionery, drinks, chocolate, crisps, newspapers, magazines, and cigarettes on offer, you can’t really go wrong in here. Prices seem to be a touch less expensive than Sainsburys (which is also en-​route to the station).
Staff are really friendly, and they always seem to have offers on their goods. For a small store Supernews has an excellent range of stock.
Not my favourite newsagents but still a very handy store to have around when you’re in need of a can of Pepsi and Glamour magazine before embarking on a journey.

The cue and clue is in the title. As a convinced and convicted non-​smoker I can only applaud the change in name of this shop from Supercigs. Although this very convenient newsagent does still sell tobacco at least its marketing is not solely based on the damaging habit. The usual range of newsagent goodies are readily available and you can certainly stock up for your train journey on the way into the station.
The days when shops like Supernews had the market to themselves are long gone and you are in the station concourse presented with other options for your sweet tooth. My own addiction to the news itself draws me in on my return journeys from Formby and a morning and an evening edition are frequently purchased on the same day while I try to forget the sweet temptations and my favourite T-​bone steak Roysters which are on offer far too often for my waistline’s good.

Supercigs is a bargain newsagent. It’s a small store and definitely has a bargain feel to it. Loud posters in the windows exclaim the latest deals on offer. There are 2 aisles with shelves in the middle displaying items on offer such as crisps, sweets etcetera. There is quite a good selection of newspapers and magazines, sometimes with discounts available. You can often pick up a bargain or 2 and get a cheap drink or some 3 for 2 bars of chocolate! Service is pretty rough and ready but nothing to complain about. Worth calling in if you are passing by.
