BIG W Ballarat
Department store
π Seriously! You canβt pay staff to use the registers but you pay a door greeter to act like a security guard. 3 staff in the fitting rooms talking and only one moved out of the way after i asked them to excuse me. Places like this are why the world is turning to $&?!

π Myer store in Ballarat. We only found street paid parking in the area. Old historic building. Much much smaller Myer than the city stores with a more limited range of products. Very densely packed with goods and not as lavishly laid out and styled as the city stores
