Shopping
This is where we do our weekly grocery shopping. Normally at Coles on the ground floor. There is also a cheaper supermarket called Aldi but they have less variety. There is a lot of shopping here and a cinema on level 2. If you need kids clothes, I always go to Kmart on level 1 because they have everything you would need.
