‘You had one job!’ The Coles Australia Day blunder you can’t unsee!

Uh-oh! - by Eliza Scanlan
  • 22 Jan 2020

With Australia Day just around the corner, there’s a lot of Aussie merchandise floating around all your favourite stores. 

But one eagle-eyed shopper has pointed out a blunder with one Australia Day product at their local Coles - and you can’t unsee it!

‘You had one job!’ The Coles Australia Day blunder you can’t unsee!

Sharing photos of the supermarket’s Australia Day ice moulds to Facebook, shopper Lina pointed out the glaring mistake. 

Made into the shape of Australia with the word ‘AUS’ written inside, unfortunately when you turn out your ice cube or chocolate from the mould the word comes out back-to-front. Oops!

Writes Lina: ‘Coles can you see a fault with this?!’

Another points out: ‘Yeah, Tasmania only gets included if you have spillage 😉’

Ha! The blunder comes weeks after Woolworths and The Reject Shop’s unfortunate error on festive merchandise, where they dropped the ‘t’ out of Christmas. Oops!
