WA caught in a timewarp.
Once again WA has elected to remain in the 1950s and rejected extended weekday trading hours for shops in the metropolitan area.
Personally, now I am working closer to home, it isn't really an issue, but when I worked over 30 kms away and my travelling time was anywhere between 35 and 50 minutes, I really did notice the lack of flexible shopping hours. There were many evenings when I was simply too late to make the locals shops and would have to make do with whatever was at home.
So having been there I feel very sorry for those who work later than 6pm because for them there are limited options when it comes to shopping. It's either buy Thursday evening (designated late night shopping) or Saturday.
