Well. It is that time of the week where I try to summarise all the juicy deals at OzBargain. Personally I found the biggest issue with writing these posts are — they can be at most 1 week late to that mega sale! Therefore do subscribe to OzBargain RSS feeds or daily emails if you like to up-to-date deals.

DailyDeals This week starts with a big sale, Catchethon #5 at DailyDeals.com.au, thanks to sh3n posting it on OzBargain. There has been some very cheap items on sale there, although I didn’t buy anything. It is also the first Catchethon which I did not cover here, because … Well I was flat out this week (which you can tell from the number of posts I made). My schedule is still going to be busy next week as well as our deadline is already overdue. Well, that’s what you get when you work in IT.

Bejeweled Then thanks to filtercore who showed us how to get Bejeweled Deluxe game for free. Yes, free game! Too bad that it is already expired. Too bad that I did not manage to download it at the end as I still could not get the coupon code to work (although it has been reported to work in the comments). Well, the good thing is I did not waste time playing it while I should have been doing work last week.

General Pants Co Logo Did you miss the 20% off storewide at General Pants, which ends today? Big thanks to bdl for posting this family and friends deal.

This week we also had our usual duel between two biggest Christian bookshops — both Koorong and WORD put out 20% off site wide this week, and the WORD deal is still running til mid-night today! We just went and spent around $120 on books, including a few kids Bible to give out to new parents at church. Which WORD is nice and close to my work place (they are at Angel Place in Sydney CBD), I still think Koorong is in general cheaper, especially if you visit the store and you might pick up a bargain sometimes.

Upright freezer Another thing we bought this week is a small upright freezer from OO.com.au, for $169.95. Standard delivery is $26.75 to Sydney because it weights 31kg. However because of the free delivery promotion with PayPal, I am paying exactly nil to have that heavy freezer delivered to our door! The promotion was initially expiring on Saturday, but OO.com.au has just extended to Monday — so more time for shopping!

Free $50 credit from Google Wanna a best way to advertise your web site, web service, or simply a product you wish to sell online? Look no further than Google Adwords, and you simply can’t go wrong with this $146,000,000,000 company! Actually, there are many ways that Adwords can go wrong but it is going off-topic. But it won’t hurt when the big G is giving you $50 credit just to try it out, and depending on what you are trying to sell, $50 can go a long way. Kudos to JeffreyM for posting this.

Alright. There are more bargains to cover but I seriously need to go to sleep now, because

  1. Tomorrow is Monday (D’oh!)
  2. My two month old daughter is highly likely to wake me up a few times tonight
  3. There are still a few OzBargain enhancement that I am working on

I have managed to add a few new features last week, and more is to come this week so stay tuned!

Cia!
