Have you found a good bargain lately, made a repair, or figured out something that works for you?
This is also for any topic requests, suggestions, or tips that might not require their own thread.
I’ve started knitting some bed socks out of random yarn.
Reorganised my fridge. Not only is it more pleasant and easier, but I no longer have to throw out unused milk. Also organized my pantry and now have enough storage that I can bulk-buy a few regularly-used items when they go down to half price.
Have you found a good bargain lately
Yeah I found the meeting room where my office keeps the gourmet visitor tea. (don’t worry: if you’ve watched the news, ever, you don’t like my employer either)
Nice! I also like having UHT bricks in the cupboard because they don’t go bad during storage.
No judgement here, get that tea
Switched my electricity provider from nectr to Ampol. Nectr was raising rates to over 29c so found a provider that was 25c. Should get the cost of living payout as well.
Peak rates? Cheapest offer I got in Jemena area was from Ovo; 38c peak, 25c off peak. FIT 7c.
No peak/off peak here. Brisbane metro. 38c is ouch.
Some places are offering a sign up credit when you switch with no lock in contract. Potentially worth jumping around as the credits expire.
Children’s liquid Panadol is $23 a bottle at Chemist Warehouse!
Panamax 240 Elixir is $6.
Shop around as it’s cheaper again elsewhere, or buy the 100ml bottle of Panamax Elixir 120mg for under $5.
Dymadon also has similar sized bottles around the $16 mark or tiny bottles around $7 (probably purse sized)
