For those of you who love your retail therapy and head for the shopping mall, Myer has been sold. Of interest to those in the USA and UK, Myer - one of two large department store retailers in Australia - has been bought by the same people who bought out Neiman Marcus in May 2005 and Debenhams in 2003. Miss Eagle has something to say about this but you can pop over to The Eagle's Nest if you are interested.

Having worked at Myer Melbourne as a kid and seeing Chadstone open I too will be interested in seeing what happens to our Melbourne icon... I can remember when they had a true bargain basement, a sewing department and many other things that have disappeared as it became more upmarket... I was told when they decided to remove their craft section a few years ago that the overall policy was to be seen as a upmarket department store and that the craft section just didn't fit with that image...I personally think they spread themselves a 'little thin' and that is what helped bring about this current state of affairs...
