There's Cotton On though the price is the same as back in Sg.
Mango constantly has sales whether it is sale on dress or sale storewide so keep a lookout. And probably don't buy if there wasn't a sales signage. Oh and I found out that Oz Mango fashion trend seems earlier than SG and HK. When I was in HK and SG in Dec, I saw the same piece of top I had fancied back in Sep/Oct which was already cleared out by Nov.
I guess buying boots in cold countries is usually a wiser choice than getting a pair in SG which probably cost more and does not have much variety.
Souvenir shops in Melbourne are one of those that will not close by 6pm weekdays.
Shops at Chinatown are the next exception.
But the best place to get the Lanolin is actually at Big W. I think I paid less than 3 AUD as compared to the one I bought in Chinatown that cost me 7-8 AUD.

First and foremost is none other than the free advertisement for my accommodation that I can almost call home .. The Art Series - Blackman
Then the street cars that go around advertising...

How to hail a taxi in Melbourne?
The traditional method is to flag a cab down along the road. But sometimes you do not even see any cab in sight, how to flag it then?
You can try finding a stand like this to hail a taxi. Taxi nearby will answer to it and you will be able to catch a taxi without much arm exercise...
Or you can ask your receptionist (if you happen to have one) to call a cab for you. My apartment happen to enlist Premium Cab Service for private cab services. I might call them when I return back to Melbourne.

Sometimes if it is an emergency, and the traffic is bad, one can call for the ambulance helicopter departing from Alfred Hospital helipad.
