Australian shoppers are left in hysterics over a glaring mistake on an $8 Kmart Christmas decoration

Shoppers have been left in hysterics over a hilarious mistake on a Kmart Christmas decoration, which many say perfectly represents the chaos of 2020.

Amused responses flooded in after an Australian woman named Laura posted in a home decorating group on Facebook, saying she had bought the $8 ‘Christmas’ flag bunting – only to discover a glaring misspelling.

Instead of ‘Christmas’, the decoration reads ‘Chrtstmas’ with an extra ‘T’ in place of the ‘I’.

‘What happened Kmart? Now I’ll have to go back,’ Laura wrote in the caption.

The post, which has been ‘liked’ more than 370 times since it was uploaded online, has drawn dozens of amused responses.

‘You’re gonna have to buy a vowel,’ one woman joked.

‘It’s perfect for 2020, sums up this year perfectly!’ another added.

‘They had one job,’ a third wrote, while a fourth suggested colouring over the ‘T’ with a red sharpie to make an ‘I’.

Amused customers said the mistake perfectly sums up the chaos of 2020

But despite the mistake, many encouraged Laura to hang the misspelt decoration while others shared their own festive mishaps.

‘I’d still hang it up and wait and see how long it too my family to notice – I think it’s funnier than having it be correct!’ one woman said.

‘I had one last year from Kmart that was misspelled too,’ another added.

‘That happened with the Birthday sign. Was missing the ‘day’ read ‘Happy Birthirth!” said a third.

One customer also seemed skeptical, saying: ‘I reckon that’s their plan to make you go back so you buy more.’

Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. Ã¢Â€Â” Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine. Shopping frenzies cleared stores of essential supplies needed everyday by many disabled people, like thermometers, hand wipes, masks, and IV infusion supplies. Accustomed to their needs ...
