Here in Australia we have the travelling “show” that sets up rides every year in each town across Australia.
As part of that they sell showbags which are just plastic bags themed and full of cheap candy and cheap toys and trinkets and what not. But they’re SO expensive.
Do y’all have that?

Ahhh it's Easter Show Showbag Crap time again...
No. You're not getting $257 worth of stuff for $36.
You're getting $15 worth of stuff for $36.
If anything, Showbags should remind you of the gouging mark-up on every product out there.

The inaction of both state and federal governments that has allowed these vehicles to spread like a disease is inexcusable.

Ages 5-8 my butt, *I* want this!!
(Also, in MYYYY DAAAAY Showbags cost $2-5 and we’d save up for months to get 1-2 at the Easter Show. Then Coke started adding backpacks in the late 80’s & it was all over)
