If you go to Coles and buy the 10% bonus value DSE gift cards you can get the Galaxy Tab A 8.0 from DSE for $247.30 for today only. The knowledgable lady in Target recommended this over an iPad mini as these have an SD card slot (if you need the storage).
Off topic: Met an Indian chap at Coles buying $900 worth of gift cards to buy an iPhone for his cousin in India. Apparently iPhones are cheaper in Australia by $150.
Is it any cheaper than the usual price?
