Here’s a question about something I saw today. I had to duck into Kmart to pick up a few things that I left behind in Brisbane before starting work in my companies Perth office tomorrow.
One guy near me was buying a few button up shirts and when he walked out he kept them on the hanger and just slung them over his shoulder.
So my question is this - if you buy clothes from Kmart, target or Big W do you expect to keep the hangers? I always pop them in the baskets they have
Not me … I don’t … I put them back in the basket.
I guess that’s one of the reasons why they sell hangers separately in packs of 5 or 10 usually.
I used too, but i now have so many hangers and not enough clothes so nope…
Although i did find out that major companies throw those hangers in the bin! What a waste.
They don’t, well, Kmart at least don’t. They get thrown into a massive pallet sized box and sent to Tic Group and they get reused.
I didn’t get a pic, but big w had a digital billboard thing as you entered asking people to leave the hangers in store.
Similar situation at Big W, yes the hangers get thrown into a recycling blue bin, but they do get eventually reused, apart from the broken ones of course.

Tim Gurner, Qualitas take control of Jam Factory after $180m raising
The revised Gurner-Qualitas plans for the Jam Factory include 15,000 square metres of commercial office space, more 20,000 square metres of retail, a new Village Cinemas complex, two hotels and four residential towers, with a combined end value of $2.75 billion.
The Australian adds
While apartments will start from $750,000, they will range up to more than $30m for the penthouses, which would smash records in the city and top prices for landmark city towers.
The developer’s personal touches include a 10 metre-high library and lounge area, a large outdoor pool with formal gardens and tea house, a cigar lounge, afternoon tea drawing rooms and a large art collection along with Gurner’s much-vaunted wellness facilities.
Paddy’s Markets at Haymarket needs this new Food Hub development. I went there last week and noticed there are a lot of stalls still vacant since the pandemic. Also a lot less people there shopping than in the past.
It wouldn’t be a commercial decision would it?
