Everybody loves a good bargain. Just that feeling when you see sopmething awesome and realise just how low the price is. What are some great bargains that you have found
The other day. I was in Coles, or Safeway or something and I saw that you could buy 3 large blocks of Cadbury Milk Chocolate for 3.80
Naturally I went mental

I swear they've decided to mess with the recipe in recent years. Doesn't taste the same. Which is a shame, because that popping candy stuff is ace.

Probably replaced the sugar with high fructose corn syrup.
I know Snopes and Coke say I'm wrong, but I sometimes wonder if thats why they went to new Coke, and then back. It just doesn't taste the same. Although I once had a can from Hawaii (made with real cane sugar) and it was like heaven.

Probably replaced the sugar with high fructose corn syrup. Nah, I think they've changed the amount of milk solids or something. HFCS isn't common in Australia.

I got a Pur water filtering pitcher for about half price, because I found a coupon for $7.50 off. The filter cartridges are still about $10 each though. I'd rather have the chocolate. ;D

As for deals - I just was shopping for a textbook for my grad course this fall (Political Communications), and new ones are 72 dollars. I found a used one for 19 including shipping.

I once snagged a pair of jeans for $3 al Wal-Mart. Should've gone back to buy the whole stack, because damn, those were the nicest jeans ever...
Snagged a sleek pleather jacket for $7 from K-Mart, too.
far more recently, I found a pair of solid black leather steel-toed boots at a local K-Mart for $10. $10 It made me kick myself for not having any cash on hand...

I found a realy sexy black tank top on sale at the mall for 2 dollars.
It was adorable, sadly I can't fit it anymore since I gained weight.

Keep it for when you lose the pounds then. It can be an incentive.

I was searching online trying to find college textbooks for a cheaper price. Unfortunately, we (my parents, boyfriend, and myself) waited too long to purchase them and were forced to go to the book store at the college and pay $860 for nine books. Nine. For six classes. WTF kind of logic is that??
On a positive note, I have a coupon for Windmill cookies.
