They went from kids/family vibe to “operating theatre please leave quickly” vibe. In Australia we had one with a train carriage for kid’s birthdays, one with a plane, all sorts of fun. I understand the change and the coffee is better for it but still change isn’t always a good thing

Purely transactional now… in Aus KMart has done the same thing… good luck finding any variety or brands there, it’s just one cheap brand that they own that does one type of everything… it’s so disposable and crap and boring

It's the worst because they are all such cheaply made items all owned by Kmart. I've been burned three times now on cheap electronics like phone chargers or spice grinders that barely last a year.
