Yeah but its bloody hard work, you are on your feet all day in that hot stuffy showbag pavillion (unless you are lucky enough to be outside), and you only get like 2 days off during the whole 14 days.

i saw a job selling showbags, not good pay at all. Around $12 an hour.
I worked selling show bags and I got $10.80 p/h and $9 for breaks. You pretty much make $1000 for the 2 weeks. I think it's a flat rate for all ages.


argh is it too late yet?
Yeah it is, applications for a lot of things closed on the 10th March, but they might be accepting more people but I doubt it, PM me if you want the addy

Selling showbags is tiring you work 12 hrs every day pretty much with 4 days off. It can get repetitive, but I suppose that the people I worked with last year made it worthwhile. I thought i was going to kill the next person who asked how much some showbag was, lol, or what was in it. A tip to all Easter Show go-ers LOOK AT THE DISPLAY!!! If you are still confused about a showbag then you can ask

They still have ads for it at seek.com or mycareer.com.au (can't remember which one I saw it at)
Only thing is that you have to be able to work the full 2 weeks of the Easter Show, which might be a bit hard with school/uni unless you have time off.

Nah, i reckon me working at Easter Show would be one of top 3 favourable moments... sad i never worked there... hmm, most likely next year i will (if i can get the job).

Easter is fun.


But not a good start for you putting work before study :p
