My BIG W bargain today

My BIG W bargain today

Went into the local BIG W today and popped into the fishing section and found a couple of baskets with reduced stuff, this was the result of 10 minutes of "fishing" thru it,  32 packets of assorted squidgies, 3 scaler bags, a squidgie pack including dvd's 4 light tackle backs, a pkt of ezy rigs, 10 assorted packets of berkley grubs, 2 tazy devils, 3 small crawfish bream hardbodies, and 5 deep diver reidy lures 5m+, all up i added it up the full value of their prices that would have been $371.18, and i paid, wait for it>>>>

 

 

 

 

$25.92, now i think i got a super super super bargain there, now to go and start using some plastics for bream and stuff, dont bother me now losing a few to blowiesTongue out

Matthew's too tight...

Vans, no chance of that, Matthew's too bl**dy tight - she'd be lucky to come away with a pair of thongs - and even then they'd have to be on sale. SealedTongue out

A good buy Mako, me thinks they've made a very big boo boo on the prices but in your favour for sure......not the normal sale stuff!

Bloody hell Mako

I dropped in on the way home to have a quick look, but you cleaned it out. Only thing left was a few crappy, no name brand hooks.
I normally do have a peak in there in a regular basis, but missed out this week.
Good on you for cracking a bargain.

The shop assistants were still in shock when I arrived there many hours later. They hadn't seen a shopper frenzy like it since the famous "granny" invasion of 1996 when there was a sale on doilies.
