    Guaranteed that some huge hulking thing will park 10cm hard up against you there and the park will still be empty. Its like doing this to someone. https://goo.gl/images/mNJVqi

    I know that spot well. I usually park under the overhanging concrete to keep my Caddy out of the sun. I will keep an eye out for your Polo next time I am up there.

    Was a quick park and cloudy day so happy to leave it out for a little bit.

    Yep, Big W carpark much better. That spot in the upstairs Coles carpark is always full during the day because of the public servants from the ACT goverment offices use it as their all day carpark. The rangers need to hit it hard to get them to move on.

    The new Kmart carpark is a nuthouse and the engineer who designed the entry/exits should be jailed for crimes against civilisation. Sometimes you can drive over to the Kmart carpark from the Big W carpark via the new tunnel as the lower level of the Kmart carpark is not as busy as the upper level.

    Get told off often for this. Even had to drop off at the door to avoid the drama of my parking choice.

    But worth it!

    I'm sure it has ended marriages.....a female friend posted on facebook a guy under the pram parking sign saying in fairness they should have guys on those signs too not just the lady in the pic. I replied saying no self respecting guy would park a mile near those door denting car parks with all the absent minded mums with trolleys, prams and little kids flinging the door open. So it is perfectly fine to leave them as they are.
