Spitting the dummies

Things are looking a bit sad in at Myer Tuggeranong.

I think they’ve got a week to go before they close the doors at Myer Tuggeranong but most of the stock is already gone. I reckon 3/4 ‘s of the stock is gone……..the shop floor is littered now with empty shop fittings and there are some bargains to be had….but you know what, I thought there might have been even more serious bargains than is the case.

It’s not going to see quite the same at the Hyperdome without Myer. I think the Hyperdome will definitely be effected more by the closure of Myer than will Westfield Woden by the closure of Harvey Norman. Now of course Myer will be heading to Woden Plaza…..I’m not sure what will happen with the old space that Myer occupied.

Can anyone help me.

What’s going to happen in at the Hyperdome where Myer has been till now.

Now, the other thing that you may want to help me with……I was in at Myer at the Hyperdome on the weekend. Most of the clothes have been sold so there are a bunch of mannequins just hanging around as mannequins do. Many of them have congregated in groups….they’re having little mannequin parties and you really get the feeling that they all come alive at night. What was that horrible movie in the 80’s ? Anyway…..there’s a handwritten sign up next to a big group of mannequins in at the Hyperdome which says, the mannequins are not for sale.

THE MANNEQUINS ARE NOT FOR SALE.

I want to know why they felt they had to put that sign up. Were people seriously trying to buy the mannequins ?

And if so,…..please explain to me what they were going to do with them.

What do you do with a bunch of mannequins ?

Does anyone know. It’s a family show…….but please tell me what on earth you could do with a half a dozen mannequins.

I’m thinking that if you put a big backyard barbecue on at your place and you don’t get enough RSVP’s you could always beef up the numbers by placing some mannequins about the place. You’d obviously have to dress them up and put drinks in their hand, but I think it would work.

What else ?

They’d fit the bill for handing out how to vote cards for the Greens at the ACT election in October. I think that would work a dream. Can you think of any other uses for half a dozen mannequins
