The ACT has liquor in supermarkets too. One of the few good things about the place.jk1237 wrote:supermarkets can only sell alcohol in a separate room/building/space from the supermarket aisles. Overseas ie NZ and Canada one of the aisles will have alcohol for the little toddler to pick up and place in the trolley. Here in Australia by law it has to be separate from the supermarket.

State chases top-end retail icons for mall
by: Urban Affairs Reporter Alice Higgins
LUXURY international retailers are being targeted in a State Government push to raise the profile of Rundle Mall as a retail destination.
In an unusual move, the Government has instructed the Agent-General in London, Bill Muirhead, to approach prominent European retailers that are on a wishlist compiled by the Government, the Agent-General's office and the Rundle Mall Management Authority.
On the list of about 35 luxury brands are Tiffany & Co, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent, Hermes, Burberry and Stella McCartney.
Popular fast-fashion chains Zara, Topshop, H&M, Marks & Spencer, Bebe, Diesel, Mango and Reiss - a label made famous by Kate Middleton - are also on the list.
The retail push comes on the back of Emirates announcing it would start from November four weekly direct flights to Dubai. It is the fifth airline to introduce direct flights from Adelaide to overseas destinations.
Emirates plans to move to a daily service from February, creating an extra 250,000 seats in and out of Adelaide. The Government estimates this will inject $200 million into the economy each year.
Acting Premier John Rau said after committing billions of dollars to the Adelaide Oval and Riverbank redevelopments, the Government was turning its attention to the state's premier shopping strip.
He said there was "no better man" to deliver results than the Agent-General. "We're trying to grow the city and make it a more attractive place and a necessary element is to increase and improve our retail offering, not just for residents but for tourists," Mr Rau told the Sunday Mail.
"There's nothing quite as good as having a person knock on your door to explain the benefits of a proposal rather than posting a letter and hoping people will read them."
Rundle Mall Management Authority general manager Martin Haese said the future of the precinct relied on attracting big-name international labels.
He said the authority would target US and Asian retailers next, within one to two years.
"This is the ultimate game changer," Mr Haese said. "What will keep Rundle Mall in business will be unique retailers."
International engagement adviser and former Austrade chief economist Tim Harcourt said it was unusual for governments to actively pursue retailers.
"It is relatively innovative," he said. "There is a very high chance of success because of the Agent-General being involved."
Adelaide Airport Limited managing director Mark Young said the airport was now working to attract a Chinese airline to offer passengers direct links with China in two years.
The state experienced a record season for cruise ships, with 23 docking in SA. They carried 42,000 passengers and crew.
A total of 26 cruise ships carrying 56,000 passengers and crew is scheduled to arrive next season, injecting $7 million into the economy.

Wait, what? Myer was trying to get in Rundle Place?Ben wrote:Confirmation today Myer is getting a full refurb due to their lease just being renewed. They will be losing the top floor however as the lease is for 1 floor less. Apparently they were trying to get in Rundle Place but fell through.
Also Tony Bianco has opened up on Rundle Street.
