Chris Ilsley has been running his plant stall - CI Plants - on the market for 13 years.

Some 203 pre-packed milk-based drinks on the market, which make up 93% of sales within the category, will be hit with the tax unless their sugar content is reduced in accordance with the proposals, government analysis says.

Even so, there are still fertilizers and amendments on the market that include “micro-nutrients” such as zinc, manganese and copper that over time can accumulate in the soil, Wallace said.

There may not be a single other product on the market that has to be sold under such stringent conditions: the covered windows, the heavy security measures, the lack of actual products to see or smell, the rigid rules for who can touch it and how it can leave the store.

Over the last year, more owners have put their homes on the market, deciding that high mortgage rates are here to stay and it’s more important to move than hold on to the cheap loans they acquired during the pandemic.
