Ryman Stationary

Who doesn’t love shopping for stationary? Seriously.
Back when I was a little girl going to school, it was the highlight of my year — the back-​to –school shopping feel of purchasing fresh binders, pens, notebooks, etc.
Unfortunately now as an adult, you have very little reason to purchase stationary supplies nowadays. However, on the rare occasion that you need to increase your stash, I’m quite happy with heading over to Ryman Stationary to get the job done.
Location:
As with everything else in Cwmbran Shopping Centre, the location is very convenient — near other shops as well as dining facilities so doing your shopping isn’t a complete chore and can make for a fun day’s outing.
Atmosphere:
One downside of this place. I find it to be a bit dense, cramped, and cluttered. The shop is very small, so if more than a handful of people are inside browsing at once, be prepared to feel a bit claustrophobic. However, they do fit a lot in this shop to pack in as much variety as possible, which isn’t too bad. I just wish the store was a bit bigger is all.
Variety:
Like I said, for the size of the shop they have great variety. This store has an incredible selection of pens as well as handheld calculators. Pricing wise, I would say you can probably get better from large department stores. I probably would explore other options, but Ryman is most definitely not bad either.
