Wednesday usually = Junk Mail and boy do I love junk mail. Some times for the bargains but mostly I just like to look at what's on special and then usually put it in the recycling bin. A quick flip through the pile I have gotten out hmmm I don't need to sell my house (not yet anyway), buy a pool or treadmill and I don't need any tree's lopped - so those instantly go in the bin.
I'm left with Kmart 1 x Entertainment & 1 x General, Big W, Woolies, Coles & Officeworks (ohhhh stationary.... NO put the catalogue down...).
Kmart Entertaintment I always love as I go through and circle all the movies that I want and then I go to the library catalogue and search for them. I usually get about 80% of them. General Kmart is good for Back to School specials. I won't really buy DVD's anymore so can't honestly say that I've saving money by not buying them.
Big W wasn't too surprising for me but I enjoyed looking at it.
Woolworths - oh how I love the..... well you know me and my loyalty they are having some bonus points on selected items so I scanned the whole catalogue about 3 times and have only managed to spend $16 on the items I usually buy at same or below usual prices so a win there! Also I'll spend over $30 with other general groceries and BANG thank you petrol voucher! LOL
Coles was good for a lot of little specials too. I have my big shop coming up soon so am sure to save a dollar or two there.
Officeworks was good actually as I circled everything that I wanted and then managed to go hunting around the house and find a few things that had been put away for the 'just in case' day.
When I look at specials I have to stop and ask myself
Do I want it - oh yeah
Do I need it - hmmmm who asked you good conscious.... LOL
