Chinese New Year

You have to hand it to the Supermarkets, never short of a gimmick!

 Not content with having Easter Eggs on the shelves months before April and the "back to school" items prominently displayed they have discovered another marketing opportunity, Chinese New Year.

Woolworths had a large display of Tsingtao beer in their liquor department today. We were tempted to buy some but were put off by the price of $45 per case.

Aldi have  Chinese New Year specials which include, wasabi coated peas, rice cookers, sauces and noodles etc.

The supermarkets haven't forgotten St Valentine's Day either.

Happy Shopping.

The things you see when you don't have a camera

We were driving along the Tweed river on the way to Murwillumbah yesterday when we spotted a group of Kayakers. One of the group was rowing along with a Blue Heeler perched on top enjoying the trip.

 

We discovered an interesting old art deco Movie Theatre in Murwillumbah. The  Regent is operating with a novel twist. Patrons relax and view movies on bean bags. Pizzas can be purchased and eaten during the show. The theatre also has a vegetarian restaurant buffet which is very affordable. All this and tickets to see the latest releases at half the price of other cinemas!!

The picture is not quite finished but as I wanted a photo for the blog, here it is.

 

 Hope I don't get into strife.

 

The subject was my suggestion, no prizes for guessing that.
