Cheaper Stuffs

If you arrive in Australia, actually in Melbourne and need or want to buy things, you probably will think like me when I first came here, "It's good, really good price, so cheap", you are wrong, I got a 50" TV that I paid AU$1200, I thought it was cheaper, turns out 4 months latter the same TV was selling for AU$799 and now it is AU$699.

When I first came I had nothing than I came out to buy, refrigerator, washing machine, mattress and bla bla bla, everything, actually I got lucky, I got Easter deals at Mayers, lol, laugh a laud, I deserve, but I got lucky, I paid almost half price in everything that I've bought, after a full year I learnt few words "Boxing Day", "Half of Year Sale", yes it's right, if you can wait few months for sure you will get a sale and save lots of money.

During the time we have discovered some sites to buy online, many time cheaper than stores, have a look on these:
http://www.dealsdirect.com.au
http://www.oo.com.au

don't feel excited to start buying in one of those now, that’s the beauty, they have sales too and even better, many times they offer free shipping for whole Australia, this is the deal, sometimes you will pay much less but when delivery comes up, ohhh, you cry.

Those one have a really good daily sale, but you need to hurry up because each sale takes just a day, if you lost, it's gone

If you want to buy some notebooks, go to OfficeWorks first, they have really good deals but.....wait for a good one. GB HIFI, Dick Smith they have too, not as good as Office Works but give it a shot but always, doesn't matter what I am saying compare prices, you will be impressed how different it could be.

If you want to go out, sometimes is good to see, touch what you are buying or even get a fresh air, go to "Going out of Bizness", it's insane:

I just love this store, I will give you a most recent example, a friend of mine bought to his son a RC Ferrari from a car dealer and paid for it AU$130.00 (this price was with discount), I shown him this store and he found out, the same car selling for AU$45.00, after that he wants to kill me and I understood why, lol, he was happy to know that place, too many good thing and cheaper than other stores.

Half Year Sale
Every end of June, every single company need to close their year, make the balance and see how much money they have made, they start selling like crazy from late May and early June,

Car Dealers are the best, they offer some very good deals, but if you sleep you will end up buying something with normal price, be aware, many stores does the same, you go to buy a good deal and end up with a bad one.

Even at Mayers, on half year sale my wife and I went there to see some stuffs, turns out she bought a GUESS handbag for AU$69.00, normal price was AU$189.00, but they had some of them with normal price just mixed within sales, sales and sales, pay attention.

Boxing Day
What can I say about it...

This is another good one, a day after Christmas, December 26 of each year, most Australian's store promote big sales, to much discount, but it is the same, many discounted things mixed with things with normal price.

Even next few days you still finding big deals, for sure much less stuff, people have bought almost everything, lol.
k
A travel bag at an expensive store that the normal price was AU$3000.00, yes it's right they were selling for AU$1200.00 only, lol, still expensive to me but you cannot say that it's not a really good deal.

Everywhere in Australia, close to big and/or expensive stores since 7:00AM even earlier will be a line, lots of people waiting for the store to open to get a bargain, and they get it, would be good idea to wake up earlier and go to buy whatever you want, if you go late, most big deals are gone, or is impossible to park or even go inside the store.

You don't see much place in Australia like this in a ordinary day

For example Chadstone Shopping, 9:00AM it's full loaded, impossible to park, the really cheaper stuffs gone, people go there to buy stuff and sell on eBay or even in their own store, I go to buy to myself lol.

Well, wake up earlier, get dressed, skip breakfast and go to the war, spend some good money and buy some good things.

Cheers
