Damn, that's expensive. Is this a gas station?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago

I'd bet money it's an Australian Woolworths (it can still be a woolies at a servo though). Just pointing it out since AUD $5 ≠ USD $5

3.16 USD

3.01 EUR

Good point. IIRC Australia also has relatively high tobacco taxes, right?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Yeah an ever increasing tax on durries. From memory a deck is upwards of $50 for 20 - probably more since I've not been on the darts for a long time now.

We've also got a massive issue with disposable vapes and black market durries now too!

Damn, that's a lot! The $5 cig-and-coke makes a lot more sense like that, that's $2.5 per cigarrette.

I used to buy 40 at the golf club (unmonitored vending machine) as a kid, selling loosies for $1. Margins were great back then.

It's a woolies, and you could buy 2 and a half cokes for that price.

Yes, and that would be expensive for a single bottle (though servos are pricier), but we can't see what the actual special deal is. The cigarettes are obviously placed as a joke.

The deal is a choccy bar normally

[-] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

This looks very much like an Australian service (gas) station called Coles Express. $5 is pretty average for this deal which is typically a 600ml Coke and a Chocolate (candy) bar of your choice. These darts look to be added as a joke. I could be way off, but that's what it looks like to me.

Bloody close, it's a woolies servo from what I reckon.

3pm tradie knockoff special if I've ever seen one!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Looks like a woolies, Coles wouldn't use so much green

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah you're likely correct I reckon! Still definately feels like a Aussie servo with those prices! 🤣
