OzSale – Finding and Scoring a Bargain
This is a sponsored post in conjunction with OzSale.
Anyone who has been following The Organised Nest for a while knows how much I LOVE online shopping. If I can buy it online, I do. It saves navigating overcrowded stores with my massive pram. Trying to make decisions whilst being bombarde by questions and whinging form little humans. Lets me buy presents stealthily, keeping purchases hidden from alwyas prying children (ok and occasionally the husband).
Recently OzSale contacted me and wanted to know if I would try it out. I will be honest in that I was a little reluctant as I had no clue about the autheniticty of Ozsale or where on earth (literally) the goods were coming from. I let them know I couldn’t promise anything, but I was happy to check it out.
Late one night during a feeding frenzy I goggled ozsale. Turns out their is an app you can download to navigate it on your mobile a little better, so I did. First thing I see, Holster sandals, dirt cheap. Are you serious? HALF THE PRICE people!
I keep browsing and check out the Living category. Cushions in bright modern designs for $12!!! The whole cushion! Not just the cover! With piping! and BAGS! Tote bags, lunch bags, cosmetic bags from $9. An organiser like me can never have enough bags.
So I placed my first order. I am a massive overthinker so umming and ahhing I left my first purchase until the next day. Some summer dresses and of course those holster sandals. THE SANDALS are SOLD OUT!!! My first lesson of ozSale. These are massive deals, when you see it, buy it as the stock moves quickly. So dresses it will be! I bought two maxi dresses and two shorter summer dresses totalling under $60. Yep FOUR dresses for under $60!!!
Not wanting to risk loosing money, I waited for the dresses to arrive before placing my next order. And arrive they did, FOUR DAYS LATER! I thought I would be waiting weeks! Turns out some stock is sent from Australia so these items do not take too long to arrive. Check on the description of the item you are purchasing in regards to where it is being sent form.
The dresses were PERFECT. Good quality, packaged nicely, could not fault it. So you know what I did that night! Yep another search!
This time I bought cushions and those tote bags (including some ballet bags for Little Miss A for Christmas) This time they were via international post and yet they arrived in under 10 business days!!!!
So I am hooked!
What you should know……
Get in Fast
All OzSale stock is only available for a limited time. It is usually available for about a week but often seels out (especially popular sizes) before the sale is finished.
Check The Supplier
If you need it fast check the supplier and postage times.
Compare
Wanting to see if I was in fact getting a bargain I compared various other suppliers online. OzSale was cheaper EVERY time.
Download The App
This definitely made shopping via my mobile a lot easier and it saved my “shopping bag” each time.
PayPal
I ONLY use PayPal when purchasing online. It gives me peace of mind knowing that if something goes wrong I can dispute the transaction with PayPal and recover my lost funds. It is also more secure and super easy. OzSale uses paypal.
Buyer beware. If you love a good bargain you will easily be hooked on OzSale. It sure makes those midnight feeding frenzies a whole lot more enjoyable AND productive, Christmas shopping is DONE!
