It also costs money to play dongs in stores, unless you just do it and risk the fine.

A company I was doing a security audit for were fined for playing the local radio as their hold music (it was so on their old PBX staff could listen to it on their phone speakers)...

I was also fined for playing the local radio in the cafe.  We moved to royalty free smooth jazz steam from the net after that.

I will never shop there i don't want to make a foreign company richer when i can support Aussie companies like Coles and Woolies.

I had Coles shares until they dropped the shareholder discount then bought woolies shares which have done really well in the last 18 years.

Women get in the mood with wine and Woolies planned free nips of sparkly wine at the end of each shopping lane. Then realised that husbands would stand there while wife went off searching for unsweetened coconut cream.

If you're buying Australian goods it doesn't really matter.
I believe many Australian producers prefer dealing with Aldi over ColesWorth.

Why do other shops play music?


Do they, though?

I don't remember hearing any music in Coles or Woolworths.

I've heard it in skate shops, clothes shops, and shopping arcades, but don't ever remember hearing it in a supermarket.

I'll have a listen when I go down to WW later on this morning.

"One British study found that classical background music increases the amount that shoppers are willing to spend. Tempo has an effect also. Slower tempo music causes people to move slower. Thus, retailers who want customers to spend more time in their stores should play slower, softer music in the background."

Sounds like bullshit to me.

Bolero is slow tempo.
I believe they have music at different tempos including fast tempo
which makes people buy faster.
The idea is change the tempo constantly to get more sales.

I've noticed that The Square Mirrabooka have changed their background music played throughout the centre just recently.

Radio Ga Ga by Queen was frequently played (was probably about 20-30 songs on a repeat loop) but I always managed to hear it everytime I was in there and it would then be stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

Unfortunately, Mirrabooka must have swapped CD's/tapes/whatever with Belmont Forum because now I hear Radio Ga Ga at the Forum nearly every time I'm there lately. 

"All I hear is..." Roll Eyes

(Both shopping centres are owned by the same company - Perron Group - so that probably isn't surprising).

Well, what do ya know?

They DO play music in Woolworths.

It was girly pop poo.

Had the opposite effect on me - I wanted to get out of there as quick as I could so I didn't have to listen to that crap any more.

All this time I've been shopping at WW, and I never noticed the music before.
