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.

In a Shenzhen supermarket, Ole, I see they are combining the Chinese New Year catalog with a Valentines day catalog.
There seem to be so many festivals these days that I wouldn't be surprised to see a new form of stress being diagnosed - event stress!
