I had a dream last night that I found the 4-packs of Shin Ramen Black on sale for $5. I got an oversized Kmart plastic bag and bought 8 of them and carried them home on the tram... Then I woke up ๐ญ
I once bought 24 large jars of polish gherkins from Aldi irl.
I bought 4 sultana brans a few weeks ago. 1/2 price. Still proud of myself (and regular).

I regularly take a moving trolley to savemore when they've got cheap stuff. 2kg of protein powder is currently $13.33 at Savemore so I bought six boxes. I pay $60/tub at Chemist Warehouse.
Fucking Uncle Dan's spend $300 and get $50 off. Thanks for the free Vodka/gin/soju.
$50 is $50
Sometimes there's a limit of 2 slabs. Boo. Sometimes there's not. Yay.
I cleared an entire bay out of those sweet potato snack stickies one octoberfest
Those peanut snacks don't get left behind when I go passed.
also, last night I dreamt I was shaving my armpits but the bathroom was too dark to see what I was doing
( one of the crazier dreams I've had in a while ....lol )
I shop like that all the time now, buy in bulk when items go on sale. I have a big pantry now to store things too. Big sacks of rice, boxes of muesli, tins of food, cleaning supplies, etc etc
