After complex discussions between developers, the site owners, councillors, consultants, legal advice and with the Victorian Government, the Council was forced to sell the site to private developers. ...The former Massey Ferguson site became a contentious issue for the City of Sunshine from the mid 1980's. The Council had acquired the land from Massey Ferguson and were considering developing the land into a large shopping complex. After complex discussions between developers, the site owners, councillors, consultants, legal advice and with the Victorian Government, the Council was forced to sell the site to private developers. The Victorian State Government stepped in and prevented the City of Sunshine in becoming the developers of the site due to the possible exposure to large amounts of financial debts. In the end, Sunshine ended up with two distinct shopping complexes, the Sunshine Plaza on the east side of Hampshire Road, which is also on former Massey Ferguson land, and the Sunshine Market Place, on the west side of Hampshire Road, the large site of the former Massey Ferguson manufacturing site. Both sites are now privately owned.5691.01 - Sunshine Plaza Development - Decision Soon On Sunshine Shops.jpg 5691.02 - Sunshine Plaza Development - Advice.jpg 5691.03 - Sunshine Plaza Development - Council May Become A Developer.jpg 5691.04 - Sunshine Plaza Development - Judge To Rule On Shop Site.jpg 5691.05 - Sunshine Plaza Development - Outspoken Plaza Boss To Stand For Council.jpg 5691.06 - Sunshine Plaza Development - Gwen Goedecke Letter Of Concerns 1989 Back.jpg 5691.06 - Sunshine Plaza Development - Gwen Goedecke Letter Of Concerns 1989 Front.jpg sunshine plaza, city of sunshine, george herscue, massey ferguson, sunshine market place, gwen goedecke -

Large Bag: We Shop at .... SSW FOODSTORES STILL THE CHEAPEST DAY IN, DAY OUT! ...These type of brown paper grocery bags were commonly supplied by SSW Supermarkets, and also by other Supermarkets. The customers generally packed their own grocery purchases into the bags, while the checkout people were engaged in the time consuming process of accurately entering by hand, the price of each item into the cash registers. One local SSW Supermarket was situated on Sun Crescent in Sunshine. The introduction of stronger plastic film grocery bags and barcode scanning saved time, and the checkout person took over the role of packing the grocery purchases. In recent times customers who use the self check out terminals have again assumed the role of packing their own groceries. The environment polluting plastic bags however still remain, unless the customers bring their own 'green' bags.These two brown paper grocery bags provide a historical reminder of how grocery purchases were taken home from Supermarkets in the not too distant past. It is likely that many of the younger generation have no idea of how the paper grocery bags looked like, or that they were once used instead of plastic bags.Two brown paper bags which were available for free in SSW Supermarkets, so that customers could pack their grocery purchases to be able to take them home.
