I was desperate for a bike for dd1. her birthday is in Aug. I have one on Layby for dd2 ( birthday Nov - cheaper than any of the sale prices).
So I shoved yoghurt at the girls, gave dd3 milk. Then got them sorted to be at the shop for the opening. ( I know seriously MAD!!!) but this bike is just right for dd1 and we have looked at so many. IT was a great price.
Well - got there - got to the bike section after taking out the opposition with a double trolley only to not be able to find it. I was about to drop to the ground and start wailing when - a lovely lady asked what I was looking for and showed me the two lonely ones left. Well HA HA!! I got it. Put it on no deposit layby - only had to pay $2 service fee. Dd1 has a gorgeous bike for her birthday.
Picked a few other christmas bits and pieces ( they have asked for a trampoline!!) as well.
Got home - the best part. WHen I checked the docket - I got the bike for $20 less that is right LESS than the sale price.
Now just have to scope out the Target sale for a trampoline!! Then my christmas shopping for at least dd1 and dd2 is done!!!
