On weekends, Australians are paid around +25% of their base wage, before casual loading etc.
But given that these types of venues are most lively on the weekends and that Fairwork mostly did away with Sunday rates, it should be part of the standard pricing if most of the volume is on those days.
We made it unlawful to display the pre-GST price as the regular price back in the 90's.
With the exception of the holiday surcharge, the growing culture of advertising pricing that isn't what will be charged needs to be dealt with at a government level.
