You have a fair point. Personally, I've pretty much just accepted my details probably already are up for sale somewhere. Everywhere seems to either have data breaches once a week, or basically is a data breach (selling everything they know to the highest bidder). The "deals" aren't really anything special for the most part either. Half price/home brand pretty much makes the first list redundant anyway

There's some kind of onepass members deal weekend thing happening from today til sunday. Considered posting in the frugal community, but although they are deals, everything is branded so it doesn't really compare to just buying home brand everything (I mean who the fuck is spending 30 bucks (on sale!) for "One Summer Eau De Toilette Spray"??). But these are some of them that seemed okay:

Kmart

• 110 pack Finish Classic dishwashing tabs - $15 [13.6c per tab]
• 1.25L Morning Fresh original dishwashing liquid - $7 [55.9c/100ml (I think)]
• Handheld physio massage gun set - $49
• 10 piece Sistema Storage Set - $22
• 188 Piece Mega Art Set - $29
• 4L Duo washing liquid [$3/L]
• 5kg clean and soften washing powder - $12 [$2.40/kg]*

(NB on the washing powder: Coles sell a 4kg box of homebrand washing powder for $5, so that's what I mean by homebrand still being cheaper. That's what I usually buy)

And a couple more from Kmart that seem like more kiddy things. Idk if they're worth it, or would even appeal to kids (they seem like stuff nobody else bought so ended up on special buy to me), but I know a lot of parents like to buy things on sale for chrissy time through the year, so maybe they appeal to someone:

• Heroes of Goo Jit Zu Jurassic World assorted dinosaur thingies - $10ea
• Disney Sorcerer's Arena Epic Alliances Core Set - $15
• Hot Wheels City Super Loop Fire Station Playset - $19
• Crayola Multi-Colour Light Board - $10
• Monster Jam Garage Grave Digger Playset - $49
• Nickelodeon PAW Patrol All PAWS Gift Set - $15
• DreamWorks Gabby's Dollhouse Kitty Fairy’s Garden Treehouse Playset - $29

Elsewhere

Catch, Bunnings, Target, and Priceline all have deals on, too, but I haven't had a chance to look through them just yet. Plus I'm trying not to impulse buy all of the things.

Officeworks has 15x flybuys points on Apple products, and half price standard photo printing in store.

Nothing to hide, nothing the fear, Mr succulent.

Fair enough. I'm sorry. I think that was mostly just projection, which wasn't fair

I hope that the CBD oil helped at least a bit and you were able to sleep

You good?

It's not a sensory issue, it's just not exciting to have 4 teeth pulled while fully awake

Dentist done for now. But I have to find somewhere that will take all of my wisdom teeth out at once, and preferably so full general anaesthetic. They suggested the dental hospital because they'll do it for either free or cheap, but it's a very long waitlist, and I won't get in to see anyone until I'm a full adult with full adult responsibilities. I'd rather do it now when there's people around to help me, and I can just not speak for a week with no issues

They suggested a low cost but private clinic in the east somewhere, but she said she would have to call to see what anaesthetic they can do. Apparently they also only accept referrals for certain procedures

Cost isn't too big of an issue, since it's not on my dime for the next 6 months. Part of the reason I want it sorted ASAP

Does it come in a normal non descript cardboard box/grey satchel, or do they advertise what's in it? Will they deliver it to your house if you ask them to leave it, or do you have to pick it up from the post office all the time?

Cherish your chatty postmen and postwomen. For one day they might vanish without a trace 😔

Y'know, considering we get 6 non Friday's per week, I don't think it's fair we only get 1 Friday. I'm gonna start a petition to get at least 3 Friday's a week

I have a parcel which needs a signature (and won't let me change that) coming between 12:10-2:10pm

I have a dentist appointment from 1:30-2:30pm (I'll be out 1-3pm)

I reckon Mr postman Pat is gonna turn up about 10 minutes after I leave

And my post office is very strict on only allowing pickup after 4 for some reason. Even if the message that it's ready for pickup gets sent sooner, and I can literally see my parcel sitting there, they will not allow me to pick it up before 4

🙃

Edit: W E I R D. 5 minutes after posting this I got a notification from the camera somebody coming up the driveway. The usual chatty postman wasn't at my door - a new lady I've never seen before was. She left both of them, including the signature one and by the time I opened the door was already on their electric bike thingy and halfway down my driveway. I hope chatty postman didn't get sacked for being too slow, he was lovely
