Best Bargain?

[Monty]

What's the best bargain(s) you ever bought?

I am thinking that my hammock has been the best investment (and was only $15 from Bunnings) as well as this new toasted sandwich maker (well that is if it doesn't go kapoop before the warranty runs out LOL) for $9. Oh I got quite a few good bargains when I worked at the RSPCA op shop, once I got two wooden outdoor chairs (used of course) with bright red funky pillows for $15 (in total).

One of my best bargains was free.

I was looking through a Church fair after it had closed at all the stuff they had left and the guy insisted I take what I like so I ended up with a fantastic coffee table that I mosaiced.

Wow a free coffee table - now that's nice. (And I need one!)

Want a mosaiced one? ;)

Our house is getting a bit clogged up of my mosaiced coffee table projects...

I had thought about cutting up an old dinning table and making some mosaic coffee tables. I searched for tiles, and that's about as far as I got LOLOL.

We get few a bargains. I don't go looking for them, usually in the right place at the right time.
At Kmart shopping for Haydens birthday on the weekend, And they announced queen bed Mink blankets were going out for $10 at the front of the store. OMG, people were running from everywhere, and fighting over them LMAO. We grabbed 2 for the kids.

Weekend before we went out to spend the myer vouchers I got from surveys. They had vacuums on special. We only have tiles so didn't need anything too spiffy. Got quite a good one, and only cost us $20.

Jake likes to look at those cheapy trolleys of returned or damaged stock. He picked up a cannon printer, it said it didn't work but he bought it anyway LOL. $20 and it works perfectly. Our DVD player was bought the same, $30, said it didn't work, but it works fine.

Alex - those are some pretty good bargains if you ask me!! guess you have to be in the right place at the right time ;) As for the mink blanket I bought one of those at K Mart last week (the sale week) for $30!!@!!! I feel ripped off :P

[Leigh]

Not sure these ones would be the same. I'd say they were left over colours that noone wanted LOL. A mid blue colour, and a dark teal colour. But for $10, can't complain, and will be great for the kids when it is cold.

We went to a garage sale & got a seesaw and a couch for the boys for $20 :)

We also got a toy tool bench with tools for $5 from the church fete.
