Yeah your perpetual outrage about perpetual outrage is a bit tiring.
I know. Perpetual outrage is keeping some heritage media brands in this country in business. Iād hate to think how many jobs would be lost if tabloid media wasnāt making money out of constantly whipping the masses into a frenzy over nothing.
I totally understood your tone.
Itās funny how so many sections of the community feel about the January 26. Triple J listeners will complain about āinvasion dayā being celebrated, 2GB listeners will be upset at the Chinese made memorabilia, Triple M listeners are outraged that the price of beer has increased because of the NSW Return and Earn Scheme and 702 listeners will use the public holiday to get stuck into the online political philosophy degree that they are completing from Southern Cross University.

While KIIS listeners think Independence Day is our national holiday. 
I was at Jim Kidd Sports at Carousel Today and noticed that their store will be closing down on the 16 January. All the stock must go before the closing date.
Nova listeners are pumped for Bonfire Night
Last weekās Aldi catalogue also has Australia Day themed items on sale from this Saturday (January 12).

End of the road for Sears / Kmart in the US after a long, slow drawn out death over the last decade.

Should Ikea be allowed to use traditional Maori and Pasifika designs?
Or is it just blatant cultural appropriation for commercial purposes?
Thereās a small display at Woolworths Skygateā¦ (probably makes sense with all the visitors). Havenāt seen any anywhere elseā¦ this is Queensland after all - weāre not so big on it up hereā¦
Getting a little extra bonus in the prepackaged salad.
I heard that garden city shopping centre in Booragoon will start redevelopment in this year. This will mean an expansion of the shopping centre with new retail stores, plus more parking.
Westfield Carousel has already finished expansion of shopping centre last year.
Free protein with your greens. 
The shopping center in Mt. Eliza has completed its redevelopment.
I havenāt been able to eat Sultana Bran since I saw a story about a dead, dried up rodent in a packet back in the 1980s. i think it may have been one of the first stories that aired on Sevenās consumer affairs flop Probe.

Iād lodge a complaint about them promoting āinvasion dayā but Iām still waiting for replies to my letters regarding the plastic bag ban.
You better start writing letters about the plastic straw ban too. 
Used a cardboard straw when I purchased a Boost juice last week and it turned to mush in my mouth before Iād finished the drink. I donāt remember paper straws being that objectionable when I last used one 30-40 years ago.
