Several members here used Martin Lewis 's Money Saving Expert forum in the UK http://http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.html?f=36

and made and saved a lot by doing so. The basic principal is to share good value fast with like minded people. As we did with Free VOIP calls earlier in this Forum I have had loads of PM emails to thank me - but thank your selves. If any one has or spots a bargain and shares it, it is the effort of the user that multiplies its value, whoever airs it is the enabler.

Anyway in good spirit I thought I would mention in passing that some of the best sandals in the World can be found at a rock bottom price in Packand Pedal in Albany. They only have about 80 pairs and have discounted them by 50%. Normally they retail even in surplus shops see link for around $150 AUD.

If you speak to a sales guy named Charlie, he may even do you a deal just to move them,.....talk to him.

Gotta fly and buy two more pairs quick before you lot get there.

Just wondering if it possible to save a few dollars by buying in bulk e.g.

- Can you buy cheap crates of wine direct from the winery?
- Can you buy a whole sheep or other large quantities of meat direct from a farm?
- Do people use a deep feeze for food storage? - can you pick your own fruit and or veg direct at the farm for a cheap price?
- Do they have the concept of Wholesalers and are they a good place to buy?
- Any other tips?

Im a great fan of the Martin Lewis site - and even though im in NZ i Still get his emails - it helps keep me focused on what im doing. The currency may be different - and you cant get the info already sources as you can if you were in the Uk - but moneysaving principles are the same whereever you are.
