Thanks in advance

Folding Bike under $100

In the weekly delivery of catalogues to letter boxes. So whoever still does that, but I don't know much more. If it really was under $100 it wouldn't be likely to be a high quality one from the bike store, maybe a run out or clearance
Yeah could be.
I'll keep an eye out but got a feeling it's a Cairns local thing. In 2006 or so I was on holiday in a remote part of northern WA and saw a Creative Zen mp3 player at Coles for under $30 or so when they were nearly $90 in the city DSE. I should have snapped it up. It was around Christmas too. Pretty sure Coles never really stocked mp3 player and certainly not name brand ones that retail for $90. They didn't have a KMart or BigW up there I think.
So who knows, Cairns would have lots of stores, so it could be anywhere, but good luck finding it.
Aldi has them might be the ones your friend mentioned.
Was it this one??

Aldi Clearance: Covertable Bicycle $150 to $100
Yikes, what did it retail for?
For peace of mind I only ride good quality ones like Dahon, they are $700 and up. Want something at least 12" wheels not tiny toddler 6" to 10" ones that collapse and fold up to find in a carry on type bag. You'll wear yourself out pedaling twice as much.
Junk mail catalogues? Like Yellow Envelope full of different paid ads or like single weekly types like BigW, Bunnings etc?
Maybe it was one of those corny gadgety stores like Innovations? With all sorts of useful aids for the elderly in it. They have cool stuff like that but really bad quality. And not good value.
Just ring around the bike stores and ask perhaps? But they'd have to have them for over $500, and I doubt they'd price drop in a print catalogue of over 80% off.
Maybe it was $700 and the 7 looked like a 1.
