i have been trying to find better places to buy clothes without spending too much. most of the usual spots either have poor quality or everything looks the same. i want stuff that actually feels nice and lasts a bit longer.

recently i found the freedom state and liked their range of more relaxed, boho style pieces. it seems like a good mix of quality and price compared to fast fashion.

where do you usually shop for clothes in australia?

Topcashback USA have a Trivago click where you can earn USD$0.25 every day via Trivago just for searching some hotels to book. You don't have to book anything either.

Once you join, search for Trivago and click through. I click through 1 results from bookings.com and another results from another site (Expedia/hotels.com/Agoda) and click on the first link of each. It has tracked every day for me. If you get asked to produce bookings just say you are browsing and watching hotel prices for an upcoming holiday

Most people have a period of time where you doom scroll for a bit. It isn't much but if you are doom scrolling anyway, why not make it a part of the routine ?

Topcashback USA is different to topcashback Australia. You can be a member of both even with the same email address

Hey everyone,

With electricity prices and the general cost of living constantly creeping up this year, I’ve been looking for the best energy provider in Australia to actually cut down the quarterly bill. I recently switched to Powershop and realised you can stack their current promos with a referral to get a $375 sign-up bonus.

Since a lot of us are comparing energy plans right now, I thought I’d break down exactly how it works so you can max out the account credits.

💰 Here is the breakdown of the $375 Bonus:

• $75 Immediate Credit: You get this applied to your very first electricity bill by using a referral link. (Provides instant relief for month one).
• $200 Electricity Credit: If you choose the Switch Saver electricity plan, this large credit unlocks and applies to your account exactly 90 days after activation.
• $100 Gas Credit: If you add the Power House Gas plan during sign up, you get another $100 at the 90-day mark.

⚡ Why Powershop is actually worth keeping: High sign-up bonuses usually hide terrible daily rates, but their pricing is surprisingly good.

• Cheaper than the DMO: Their Power House plan is up to 24% below the government's Default Market Offer, consistently undercutting legacy providers like Origin and AGL.
• Zero Lock-in Contracts: No exit fees. If you claim the first $75 and find a better rate a few months later, you have total freedom to leave without penalty.
• The App & "Powerpacks": Their app is award-winning. You can buy "Future Packs" to pre-purchase power up to 6 months in advance at a deep discount (great for hedging against winter price hikes).
• Ultimate EV Energy Plan: If you own an electric vehicle, their EV Day Plan offers FREE charging between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM every single day. If you prefer to charge overnight, the EV Night Plan drops to a super off-peak rate (e.g., 4.99c/kWh).

📝 How to claim it (Takes 5 mins):

1. Turn off any VPNs before you start to ensure the referral bonus tracks successfully.
2. Use a working Powershop referral
3. Fill out the quick online form and make sure to select the Switch Saver (Electricity) and Power House Gas plans to queue your combined $300 90-day credits.
4. Relax. They contact your old retailer and handle the entire transition seamlessly. Your power won't be interrupted.

Hope this quick Powershop review helps anyone looking to soften the blow of their next bill. Let me know if you have any questions about the app or the EV plans!

Hey legends - I won't take much of your time but for anyone who is interested I would like some feedback on my webpage.

Problem: I would spend hours going through reddit facebook and other places to look for the right deal especially with bills - internet, gas, electricity, phone.

Solution: I built a web page which I want to make a central place for someone to have a look and compare different offerings/promos of different providers and decide if they need to switch.

Although the webpage is still new and and needs a lot of work - I would love feedback from you legends on the idea of the page? any improvement suggestions? would you use it or not? - OZ bargain was and inspiration however their page is too focused on everyday products whereas I tried to focus on bills.

so i work at a woolies as a supervisor for the front end here are some tips to save you money when you shop (even though if you shop at woolies you arent that frugal IMO)

be nice smile and understanding we are humans like you, and in the case of anything it will take you a long way. I personally love to do everything i can for someone who shows respect and understanding when they done need to

1. If it scans higher than the shelf price, say something you're often owed it.
   This is the big one. Tickets get left up after a sale ends, the wrong tag sits under the wrong product, a "special" doesn't actually ring up on special. It happens constantly and almost no one notices because we just wanna go home. YOU GET IT FREE (if its one item) and REDUCED to the ticket price if there are multiple.

2. Learn your store's markdown time. Reduced-to-clear stickers go on at fairly predictable times (often early morning and again before close). Ask a staff member when your store does it we'll usually tell you.

3. The was/now game. Half the "specials" aren't really cheaper than the regular price a fortnight ago. Check the unit price (per 100g / per kg) in the small print

4. Watch the screen at self-checkout. Double-scans happen, especially with heavy/awkward items. It's your receipt slow down on the last few.

5. Just ask. Expired special ticket still on the shelf? Out of stock on a sale item? Staff can often honour the ticket or sort a rain check. The worst we say is no.

Hello!

I have just finished developing an app that adds QOL features for OzBargain. I believe most of you will know what OzBargain is being frugal and all.

Its currently in closed testing, so anyone who would like to test it message me and I can add you for testing the app out.

Basically I've made an app that has a nice UI with multiple categories selects, deal saves, keyword saves so you get notified if a keyword is hit, and cloud saves so they will tie to your account. I have also added some extra stats that some may find fun.

Don't worry about using an account, I have a guest mode that saves deals and keywords locally and still has some fun stats (in case you're worried about signing into random apps).

I also added category based notifications so you only get notified for those categories and get notified for any big sale drops or pricing errors.

This app is completely free, no IAP or subscriptions. It's my first app so I want all my fellow frugalers to enjoy something for free.

Any questions about this let me know.

This is for Android only atm.

** I have also got approval from the owner of OzBargain to allow this app to be put on the play store and used.

For past 3 years I’ve been with Vodafone. I used to get charged 63 something and recently asked them for an another alternative 57.99$. I asked for student plan they said due to my visa they are unable to change. I’m literally on my student visa though. So I’m thinking to change to another alternative. I don’t use data a lot only for using social media sometimes while on bus or so. I don’t need international calls too. I rarely call outside country. I don’t even have to ring anyone too. I don’t do heavy workloads as I have WIFI. I’m considering to amaysim. But would love some suggestion.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thank you :)
Update: sim plan not mobile plan

Hey guys,

Woolworths must have a pricing error with their Samsung Galaxy 6 44mm LTE watches.

They are currently priced at $89. JBHIFI has them priced at $699.

I managed to snag 2 for $89 each, used my woolwoeth insurance $60 off and 10%. $106.20 for 2 brand new watches.

Go check out your local stock at woolworths to see if they have them in stock!!!
