Buy the Groceries, Catch A Plane

If you're flying through Melbourne International Airport on your next trip to Australia, you might be lucky to experience the new, extended version of the airport.

A major development plan for Melbourne Airport has just been approved, which will include a stack of new shops. And not just your typical airport perfume and liquor shops, either--you'll be able to stock up on groceries at the supermarket, fill the car with gas and even buy refrigerators or washing machines.

A fitness gym and child care center are also included in the plan, which is meant to entice not only airport customers but also airport workers to do their shopping too. Handy if you've forgotten to buy your loved ones a gift — you can grab them a new microwave oven at the airport.
