    There’s some kind of onepass members deal weekend thing happening from today til sunday. Considered posting in the frugal community, but although they are deals, everything is branded so it doesn’t really compare to just buying home brand everything (I mean who the fuck is spending 30 bucks (on sale!) for “One Summer Eau De Toilette Spray”??). But these are some of them that seemed okay:

    Kmart

    • 110 pack Finish Classic dishwashing tabs - $15 [13.6c per tab]
    • 1.25L Morning Fresh original dishwashing liquid - $7 [55.9c/100ml (I think)]
    • Handheld physio massage gun set - $49
    • 10 piece Sistema Storage Set - $22
    • 188 Piece Mega Art Set - $29
    • 4L Duo washing liquid [$3/L]
    • 5kg clean and soften washing powder - $12 [$2.40/kg]*

    (NB on the washing powder: Coles sell a 4kg box of homebrand washing powder for $5, so that’s what I mean by homebrand still being cheaper. That’s what I usually buy)

    And a couple more from Kmart that seem like more kiddy things. Idk if they’re worth it, or would even appeal to kids (they seem like stuff nobody else bought so ended up on special buy to me), but I know a lot of parents like to buy things on sale for chrissy time through the year, so maybe they appeal to someone:

    • Heroes of Goo Jit Zu Jurassic World assorted dinosaur thingies - $10ea
    • Disney Sorcerer’s Arena Epic Alliances Core Set - $15
    • Hot Wheels City Super Loop Fire Station Playset - $19
    • Crayola Multi-Colour Light Board - $10
    • Monster Jam Garage Grave Digger Playset - $49
    • Nickelodeon PAW Patrol All PAWS Gift Set - $15
    • DreamWorks Gabby’s Dollhouse Kitty Fairy’s Garden Treehouse Playset - $29

    Elsewhere

    Catch, Bunnings, Target, and Priceline all have deals on, too, but I haven’t had a chance to look through them just yet. Plus I’m trying not to impulse buy all of the things.

    Officeworks has 15x flybuys points on Apple products, and half price standard photo printing in store.

      The cost of selling my name and details is not worth “deals”.

        You have a fair point. Personally, I’ve pretty much just accepted my details probably already are up for sale somewhere. Everywhere seems to either have data breaches once a week, or basically is a data breach (selling everything they know to the highest bidder). The “deals” aren’t really anything special for the most part either. Half price/home brand pretty much makes the first list redundant anyway

      That’s totally cool to go in there. I’m not a mod or anything but if people prefer brand for some reason and use deals or coupons that’s still frugal
