Take up a Taronga Zoo annual membership during the month of November via the promo page link and have your one-off joining fee of $20 waived. It includes access to Zoos Victoria, Zoos SA and Perth Zoo as well, making this a potentially cheaper membership to get if you live in VIC, SA and Perth to get access to local zoos in those places.

Zoos SA: Adelaide Zoo and Monarto Zoo | Zoos SA Membership
