Jaycar usually wants people to pay $4.95 for paper catalogs, unless they buy a lot.

Today, I noticed a pretty big stack of last year's catalogs available for pick-up, COST-FREE.

For you I guess, it expires when your areas stores' supplies are all exhausted; for AU, it's when all stores are out of supply. :-)

We saw them, while driving through SA, this time on M Nort Road (near Gepps Cross? ie, where Main North Road crosses Grand Junction Road).

(I know, I should have snapped a photo… but… sometimes staff don't like unknowns from taking photo's in shops.)

Getting a hold of one magazine can ensure a lifetime supply: there's a mail-back form in every edition of the magazine which means the next copy of the next magazine will be posted out to you when released.

Used to be a downloadable/searchable CD. Not sure if that still exists, but is surely more carbon footprint friendly. EDIT: They no longer do a CD version :(

If you order alot of electronics from Jaycar, look into dealing with Electus Distribution direct (thats their parent company), when I dealt with them, minimum order was $100.

  Why would they do a CD now….there is a thing called the internet…..
  
  Also if you are going to be bulk buying resistors, caps, switches, etc I have found it much cheaper to just buy them from Hong Kong.

Usually, they give you for free in store if you ask them….

RS Components has a phone book sized catalogue that they will give away for free, sometimes over the counter sometimes you will need to fill in a form, but they will send you one although some people complain about the price, they have a lot of stuff and a heck of a lot more on their website.
