Hi Taraz. Funny you say that but we had a special on Bundaberg last week at our local supermarket and I also bought some. 245 hours for the month is an average of 8 hours every day. That is really rough and that doesn't include Steem as that is a hobby and helps you relax lol.
I have never seen it here before, I have to make sure I keep buying it so they keep stocking it. =)
I can see the thought process of the shopkeeper. Target the one Aussie who is loaded with Steem. At least they have it and it means it is listed now, if they stop you can still request it.
I think they should have an Australian section in every supermarket globally as we are well known for our culinary skills. =)
