Sat Oct 4 - Sun Oct 5, 10am-3.30pm
How much:
Cash only!
Description:
James and Scottie Cameron's accountant said they should move some excess stock before doors open at their new store mid October. It is not often that the words of an accountant bring joy to the masses, and especially not the same week his stocks fell 7 billion points or some crap. Anyway, you'll get shirts for $65, pants for $80, knitwear for $40 and Common Projects shoes, for which not even Jesus deserves a discount.

Description:
Add an exclamation mark to the end of its name and Collingwood World sounds like it should be filled with ghost trains and kids hurling after too many dodges in the dodgem car rink. But you won't find inflatable hammers in this sparkling new Smith Street haunt. We don't like to gush about events you can't go to.

It doesn't matter that CIBI is at the sneaker-warehouse end of Smith Street, or that it's hidden in a backstreet between overgrown houses and factories. This spacious café/design-nerd paradise could be poking out from any industrial suburb and it'd still be poking out with pride.
CIBI is a big space, split into two areas.
