Maybe of interest to Aussie Cuties.

Spotlight had a great sale the other week and one of them being $5 for dress patterns. Almost every brand except Vogue. 
Well I was going to go to the shop and buy but something happened here and I couldn't go out. No problem I thought I would order online. I had a decent sized order added a extra couple of things to qualify for free postage. 
Ok now the fun part of the story. My order is coming in 7 parcels from all over the country. Tasmania, South Australia. NSW and Queensland. 
So a warning to any of you who have to sneak in parcels don't order on line. You will get caught out for sure. 
I am OK as my other half knows I can't resist a bargain.
Forgot to say even my Paypal account now has 7 entries for my shopping spree.

Sounds like you found some great bargains. I have been so busy I missed they had a sale. Never mind I am trying to be good at the moment and only purchase as I need seeing as I have way too much already. Only problem is that I never seem to have enough of the right zips!
It will be like Christmas when those goodies arrive! I am guessing they have to come from the store that has what you are after in stock. As long as you didn't need to pay extra in postage for the privilege.
Enjoy your goodies when they arrive

Still have 4 parcels to come. No they don't charge you extra for the postage.

My husband has perfected the eye roll for when I get another fat envelope of zippers. I am putting myself on a spending diet right now until my bank account can recover a bit. Things have happened to cause us to have to have some unexpected spending and now I feel guilty when I want to order something.

I don't normally buy up that big but some of the patterns were $21.95 each regular price and were current ones as the other shop was selling for full price. My savings were $190.00

so glad you were able to take advantage of the sale. It is a bit like Christmas getting all the packages and guessing what is in each before opening!

Oh I know what is in each one as I was sent tracking numbers for each parcel.

haha, you do sound a lot like me!! I was very disappointed to find that Spotlight has been closing shops everywhere. Two which I go to sometimes are now shut, quite a nuisance. Lovely new one in Trinity Gardens in Adelaide though.

I didn't know they were closing shops. Here we have had a new one open 15klms away but it is called a B store not as large as the one 40 klms away but has all the basics.
Funny you should mention Trinity Gardens one of the parcels came from there in it 1 fat quarter that was all.
