16 Forgotten Everyday Things From 1970s Australia That VANISHED Today 🇦🇺

Australia in the 1970s wasn’t just an earlier version of today. It ran on completely different rules. This video dives into 16 everyday things that shaped daily life in 1970s Australia—and then disappeared entirely. Not trends. Not nostalgia moments. Ordinary routines people lived with without ever thinking they’d vanish. From the confusion of switching to decimal currency, the chaos of the 6 o’clock swill, and TVs that shut down for the night, to lining up at the chemist to develop film, rationing petrol during the oil crisis, fighting over three TV channels, and buying records at Brashs because music actually mattered. You’ll see how people communicated before mobiles, how communities revolved around milk bars, why Christmas beetles once filled the air every summer, and why Saturday morning pictures at the local cinema were pure magic for kids. Smoking everywhere. Writing letters. Typewriters in offices. Phone boxes on every corner. Half-day shop closures in the middle of the week. All normal once. All gone now. This isn’t about saying the past was better. It’s about showing how fast everyday life can change—and how many small rituals quietly disappeared along the way. If you lived through the 1970s, this will feel uncomfortably familiar. If you didn’t, some of this will sound unbelievable. Which one surprised you most? Which one do you miss? And what did we forget that should’ve been on this list?
