Where is the best supermarket for me to stock up on my groceries after I have collected my camper?
We recommend you wait until you have picked up your camper before doing your grocery shopping. That way you will know exactly how much room you have in the fridge and pantry first. Once you have your camper, we suggest you head to New World, Remarkables Park Shopping Centre (0.2km from Branch).
