not sure if there's free parking around the place but you can always just casually park in the x carpark given it's one day a week...
It's really expensive... I never knew until I drove another car one day and wanted to pay.
or you could park in the mac centre carpark cos that's free after 6 pm... (i.e. you get the normal 3 hours free then it's free after 6 so technically you can park there from after 3 and it should be free until midnight)
No I don't think that's correct.
Someone told me the same thing, and I had to pay. I arrived at like 4pm and left at 9pm and ended up paying $4 or something.
I think you have to enter after 6pm in order to get free parking, which is useless if you want to get to class on time.
tbh I've never looked around late at night to see if the parking inspectors are there... up to you whether you risk it I suppose.
I would say not risk it. Remember that MQ essentially doesn't have parking inspectors; they have security walking around checking on the cars for both stickers and making sure the area is safe etc.

is there free parking available around MQ (street names)?
Not really, otherwise people wouldn't buy stickers.
You'd probably have better luck, though, given that it's at 6pm. I would say that you would have the best luck in any of the residential areas around the uni. Nowhere's really close though.
I think your best bet would actually be parking at Mac Centre and paying the $4 - it's much cheaper than the casual MQ parking.
