for ~1480I bought a Breitling Navitimer $4.9k down to $4.4k. Also another $1k in miscellaneous items.
I just now realized that I forgot to sign into CashRewards. Oops.
Bought solid gold as an investment, "saved" the max amount of $1000.
I was almost going to get a pair of headphones but they were all overpriced even after the discount.
Pulled the trigger on Dell optiplex 9010. First time getting refurb so I'm hoping it's worth it!
The item I wanted to buy was $69 with $15 shipping so it technically didn't make the minimum. I got frustrated and didn't check out. Next time :)
My mate at work bought an LP Player. So he could listen to the 'warm tones of vinyl', declared a bit too smugly for my liking.
Nintendo Switch & Splatoon 2 bundle from The Games Men.
Paid only 455 ($100 off).
Sony 65" 4k Tv and a Robot Vacuum
Out of curiosity - who actually provides the discount?
The retailer, ebay or paypal?
The reason I ask is that when I picked up my TV - the invoice shows for the full amount. Yet only the discounted amount has been debited from from my account.
Ebay/PayPal.
I sold some items during the sale after encouraging people to use the coupon. They received the discount, I received the full amount.
I am also utilizing a promo for no listing fees and no final valuation fees, so it appears ebay/PP are eating the cost to continue their push against Amazon.
Gotvha… just that some retailers have a price promise… so if something is advertised lower.. cash back!
So buy something for $2000… pay only $1640. 2 weeks later it is advertised for $1800…. get another $200 off under price promise :)

Credit to MYER. Kept their current special in-store price on eBay, so the 18% came off that. Made it a great deal.
yep, myer is not as bad as people try to say. They have some good deal in store and online.
Me, I have noticed Pac Fair staff a lot more helpful than a year ago, think they are make great improvements.They are OK but with their Apple MacBook prices, they decided to jack them up at 5pm before sale started at 6pm. Office works kept them at the same price and restocked at 9:55pm, luckily I got one after missing out at 6:10pm.
Got a Britax Safe n Sound Millenia car seat. Expecting my first baby in Feb so have been watching for a good car seat for a while. This one has pretty good review on OzBargain and has always been around that 430 mark. I know it's time to pull the trigger the first moment I saw the sale. $365 delivered isn't too bad
This was one of the first bigger Ebay sales where I didn’t spend thousands… spent $600 still 😎

Anyway….
Overseas on hols at the moment but I did have a quick look for champagne and whiskey but couldn't see anything too exciting so didn't bother (when I'm busy I just look at booze). But I'm sure if I was home I may have spent some more time trying to find a good buy or two :)
Added another RC car to the fleet. Vaterra Ascender
id use that just as a decoration
I had hummed and harred over buying a bike from Bicyclesonline for ages now. Could have got it at the best possible price last night, but decided if I don't pull the trigger now, I never will at the full price later on. So, no new bike… Figured it just wasn't worth it right now. I'll probably regret it in 1-2 months though.
i think its 'umm'd' and 'arrr'd'.
unless you're a buddhist monk and a pirate at the same time.
Haha you're probably right. I googled it at the time of writing and just went with the top result.
Got a 24" LG IPS monitor for $159 after $35 off. Was weird that the money wasn't taken out immediately as well, hopefully it'll arrive in a few days.

I purchased 2 x Asus AC68U routers for about 170 each. After applying the 18 percent discount & the 1.25 percent discount through cashrewards.. I then also purchased a HP Elitebook 8750p (2nd hand) for my Dad that was in immaculate condition for 300 bucks including shipping.. Nothing exciting. But saveed a few bucks on stuff I needed. :)
Bought an Aero series 5kw Panasonic air con. New series was just released & was looking out for a sale/ price drop on it. Managed to save just over $250.
whats the diff between this and the one just before?
brand new home brewing gear (co2, kegs, etc) - they never really go on sale so this was the right time to "invest"
I accidentally bought a weber 220q instead of a weber 2200q lol.. damn internet shopping and sales got me excited but oh well. I saved some money but still slightly pissed
Bought a couple of boardgames
Now the waiting game for my goodies to arrive. Then again i got a few things i bought last month that is yet to arrive.
A few sex toys and bit's for the car.
I wish I thought of buying it too!
Picked up a galaxy s7 edge from mobileciti and typing from it.
I had to buy a replacement part for my car, i found a good seller who had an excellent price of $340 last week, i was going to pull the trigger but i decided to pay some bills and wait a week.
When the 18% sale was announced i was pissed off because it said it didnt cover the cars section. However I thought id give it a go anyway, went to the listing and the seller was having a sale and already discounted the part by $99, then i got the extra 18% off that. ended up paying $196 for something i was more than happy to buy for $340 last week.
a bit of a win there

Logitech K800 illuminated keyboard & Performance MX mouse to replace the same ones I've had for years and a new lens for my Panasonic GX85.
Some Rokit 4 G3 studio monitors. Hoping a few things I have up on eBay sell soon to justify the purchase!
Not an amazing saving but I did finally pull the trigger on a Rocket Giotto Tipo V coffee machine. Saved $500 (on RRP) but this still brought it down to $2650 nonetheless, which is the cheapest I have ever seen it. Only other time it got close to this price was a few months ago when shops were clearing the older model for $2700 to make way for this one.
When I picked it up the lady at the shop said they were hit pretty hard with the sale.. one person bought a machine, then put another transaction through for a grinder. $1000 off sounds pretty good!
Ahhhh a coffee conneiseur . Good work. Still happy with my breville but you are living the dream friend.
I bought the Induction heating Tiger rice Cooker JKT-S10A 5.5 cup instead of the 10 cup. I never cook above 4 cups of rice anyway.
$529 + shipping cost —> $432 bucks around. my rice cooker died so Ive been waiting for a sale. I cant wait to use it!
The usual experience. Trying to look into the future and order a whole bunch of stuff for future projects. And the stuff I researched last time there was a code has either changed in price or disapeared completely.
Wheelbarrow
Refrigerant vacuum pump
phone
chinese cheapies
carbon dioxide tank
Bulk items like ink or household chemicalsand then I go to pay, and its no, no, no. Mostly because of the difficulty in paying with paypal and picking up locally. So my cart went from 0, to 10, and finally back down to one. And then finally the one thing I did buy, a motorola G5+ from hamzas post, turns out to have been available for roughly the same price using the existing code.
Time spent: 4 hours. Saving over average: 0
