Just bought a switch and need some games.
Looking to buy Zelda but can't really find any good deals.
Cheapest I can find is Amazon AU for $74, and JB/Big W sells for $79.
Are there other places that do it for cheaper? Cheers.
Best Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild Deal?

Nintendo 1st party titles are rarely cheaper than the RRP. The range of prices you mention are fairly typical and usually you won't do much better - even years after release.
I picked it up for $59 from Amazon on Boxing Day with a $20 off lightning sale. It has also been that price with a $20 off deal that Catch of the Day had (I used that deal to get a Pro Controller for $59 as it was a one use only).
Moral of the story is that with Nintendo stuff you usually pay a premium unless you happen to snag a deal such as above. But Zelda is worth the full price of admission anyway - you won't be disappointed.
Even though it’s not in the spirit of AusBargin to pay retail price this is one game where I’d have been happy to pay double. It’s worth more than $79 so consider it a bargain if that helps for the enjoyment you are going to recieve from the game. You can probably find a great deal on a suck a** game which you will play once - that’s a rip off. Dont deny yourself the BOTW experience any longer!

Nintendo fans do love a ripoff!
I've put 215 amazing hours into it. May play Master Mode at some point too. Not a rip-off!
It's $79 @ Kogan, you could buy a $50 off $120 spend voucher, spend an extra $41 and use a referral to sign up for a new account to save an extra $10.
eg.
Buy the game @ $79 + $41 worth of other items @ Kogan = $120
Buy a $50 off $120 spend voucher for ~$11 on eBay
$120 - $50 - $10 (referral) = $60 (+ $11 for the eBay voucher cost)
Total cost= $71 + shipping or free with Shipster.
