Has anyone noticed the Melway street directory on sale anywhere?
Looking for Melway Street Directory

There's a 2016 version on eBay for $29.95 with free delivery, maybe cheaper if you make a lower offer that gets accepted. You can also try your local newsagents as they'd be discounting them around this time of the year to make way for the new version.
If you want the 2017 version you can get it from Officeworks for $49.99. Don't forget they'll price match if you can find it cheaper elsewhere. Also if you know anyone who works at Coles, they'll get double staff discount this month (10% off) across the whole Coles group including Officeworks.
You can literally find them at any newsagent, bookstore or even Big W… they're not hard to find!
Often the newsstands in the CBD are running out the previous year's editions.
I think it's rather sad that the only post with any actual useful information hasn't had an upvote, so I voted for it. Thanks, bengal tiger!

No, picklewizard, they're not hard to find, but I hadn't been able to find any bargains. Probably, I should have used a clearer term than "on sale".
To be honest, I read it as you couldn't find them, not that you were looking for a better price. Kmart used to always have them, as did Coles, but I don't know if they still do.
Maybe send a telegram to Angus & Robertson
You can find them at Officeworks. I bought one last week.
At $45? I was hoping for more of a bargain than that.
I think you can only find them cheaper when they're clearing the previous year's stock. I used to find them (previous year's) cheaper at the kiosks in the city - not sure if they even still exist.
The GPS's are good for going from A to B.
I use Melway to plan things ahead and to coordinate units around the map. Can't do that on the GPS or on the Phone.
For nostalgia?
