[7/11] Buy a large Slurpee, get a Super Slurpee FREE

Not really a bargain, more like hacks.

Summary:

7/11 has another "Rip & Win" promotion going on with the top prize being an iPad, as well as small consolation prizes like Super Slurpees and other things.

Conveniently, the sticker is somewhat see-through. You could easily see "Free Super Slurpee" on the cup that I (well, the boyfriend) picked up today in about two seconds.

So grab a few cups and have a look for "Free Super Slurpee", and if you see "You've won an iPad", then you owe me. :P

Notes:

• They're also bringing out 9 new flavours. The Lime pear one was nicer than expected.
• Some stickers are more difficult than others. Don't blame me if you misread. xD

Not sure how large the screens are, so if you're wanting to watch an epic movie with a huge screen, you might give this a pass. But with Hoyts' "Super Tuesday" being $11, this is a cheaper alternative. Also, don't know if you can use this when movies are just release, so call to double check and avoid disappointment. :)

Welcome Bargain Hunters!

Hello everyone!

As you are probably aware, I love a good bargain. So I've decided to start this blog and post bargains, promotions, deals, offers and freebies that interest me (and hopefully you.) :]

The bargains posted here will mostly be located Melbourne (excluding the few national ones), so if you're from interstate or overseas than this probably won't be relevant to you.

A few notes for you bargain lovers.

• Some bargains will come from one of my favourite sites: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/. Others will just come from ones I'm might come across randomly on the street.
• Some bargains might require you to sign up and will be labelled with (S/U) in the title. If you're afraid of spam then use this website to create a temporary email. http://10minutemail.com/ I personally haven't used it yet because I usually just unsubscribe, but a lot of people from OzBargain do.

That's it for now. Hopefully I'll be able to find some neat bargains on at least a weekly basis.

Enjoy!

- Tania.
