Ladies who shop !!

[mrs.dr.ron]

I have shopped in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne and Melbourne is my clear favorite for range and service. Some staff in the Melbourne store have been there for years and they really know their shoes.

Brisbane did have the outlet store but that seems to have closed, I havent been to the new Brissy shop yet.
And the Sydney store is now half the size it used to be !

I'm glad I won't have time tomorrow when I am in Melbourne - I arrive late and leave on a coach before 9 am and on Monday on the way home, it's just off the coach and out to the airport, Never mind, always next time!

I'm thinking of popping into the Melbourne store sometime soon to see what all the fuss is about.

Anyone getting some bargains ?
With the AUD at its current value against the USD I don't see much overseas shopping for me

Money tied up in cheese and mince at the moment.....

The interloper is back, our JP, UK and US trip is now off the cards and I am not that fussed. Mrs and Miss Matt_01 will not get to opportunity to hit me with phrases such as “it’s a bargain”, “how often do we get to Japan”, “it’s New York”, “buy another bag” and the standard “You’ll get over it”

Money tied up in cheese and mince at the moment.....

What about dunny paper, I hear that is a valuable commodity at present.

A bit OT but MissM just mentioned if we are in lock down you get to spend 24/7 with me are you happy with that, of course I said yes. Based on my normal travel I should be landing in MEL within the next 40 minutes.

Mrscove says she received a message that Peter Sheppard were closing. I didn’t see the message.

Was just about to post the same information. Hopefully they will survive the shutdown. A good excuse to buy from them online

I just got it too. However I am in “no spend” mode

 

[mrsterryn]

I didn't get that message but also in a low spending mode at the moment sadly

Yes, got the email too. Mentioned it on the ChitChat thread as I forgot this one was here,

 

[Bindibuys]

Email received here today too. Wallet closed for the time being.

Given the parlous state of my super account, so am I for the next little while.

I've been in no spend mode for most of this year, so far, but am seriously contemplating some noise cancelling headphones to help while I'm working from home. It seem harder for me to drown out Mr Katie on his meetings than what I manage to drown out in a fairly open plan office. And I thought it would be easier to ignore one's spouse ...

 

[mrsterryn]

I have borrowed one husband's set of noise cancelling . They do make a difference

My no spending isn't quite working but I am buying from little places.
Bought some salts and peppers yesterday family owned and Aussie
Cold brew concentrate again local
And a couple of other little things online

 

[blackcat20]

I've been doing what I call "panic spending"; spending small amounts at lots of small businesses because its all I can do to help.

 

[mrsterryn]

My hope is people can do one little shop and maybe some places willbe able to weather this

Also ordered some facial products Ive not tried before - clicked for lots of samples to see what else is out there.
