What kinds of items are fellow OzBargainers looking to buy, in next month's sales ?

I see a lot of items have already gone up in price significantly on AliExpress, since August, just to have the 'mark-down' for the Chinese 11/11 sales.

Other than Chinese shopping sites (eg. AliExpress, Taobao, JD, etc.), what are some of the other sites or products that you're looking forward to?

Personally, I need to update some items,
eg. WiFi 7 router, OLED monitor (portable, non-portable), External 4TB SSD, CCC-certified powerbank, portable VPN router (like GL.Inet), Crown casino gift cards, CTEK car battery recharger, etc.

I've bought software licenses before during Black Friday sales because a lot of (U.S.) software companies do great deals during Black Friday sales.

In fact, a lot of U.S. products have got very decent discounts during the Black Friday + Cyber Monday sales.

So, I am trying to crowd-source some ideas / items to look out for :-)

    Why "Other than Chinese shopping sites"?

      That's the first place I go to, for my own shopping habits, because I do not have Amazon Prime and I find that I am buying a lot of trinkets from China, haha

      So, I wanted to know what other places are good for looking for deals or where I can find the once-a-year-sale specials?

      There's been so many times, that in December-January, I realised I wanted something but missed the sale.

      Curious to know what most people get from these sites apart from cheap electronics

        Chinese homage watch brands are actually surprisingly insane value. Other than that yeah, most of it is trash I would say.

      Just asking for a Friend. Is there a special on old GF. Does (enter pronoun) come with any residual warranty?

    Sweet FA

    During Prime Day my items didn't move a cent and don't expect the same this time round.

    Don't need anything, don't want anything. My eBay watchlist is mostly empty, same for Amazon and AE.

    I hope we get okayish deals on WD drives, but on Amazon AU so we can use up GCs, unlike the recent one on Amazon US.

    Some stuff from iHerb, discounted and with increased cashback. Some stuff from Bonds too

    • whyisave on 20/10/2025 - 15:57

      In the last 3 years, iHerb items have become quite expensive and the minimum spend has increased too, for free AU shipping.

      What I like about the iHerb items is that a lot of pills on there, are non-GMO, vegan-friendly pills (ie. no meat or pig gelatin).
