Wasn't expecting to find bargains in a physical book shop, as I use book depository most of the time, but…
Dymocks at Westfield Chatswood has been running this promotion where selected copies of books are heavily discounted up to 95% off. Every price tag has a number in a small box between 0 and 12. They have a TV screen in store where they will list the numbers for which discounts apply for the day (not sure if the numbers change during the day). Copies of the same book may have different numbers.
On Saturday, the numbers were:
12 - 95% off
1 - 90% off
2 - 80% off
3 - 70% off
4 - 60% off
5 - 50% off
I ended up with these bargains - see photo of the books with annotated prices.
- Bug - $24.99 at 95% off -> $1.25
- Sisterhood of Dune - $29.99 at 90% off -> $3.00
- Fifty plants that changed the course of history - $35.00 at 90% off -> $3.50
- Yates Garden Planner - $27.99 at 95% off -> $1.40
- Creating an Australian garden - $49.99 at 95% off -> $2.50
- Grand Designs Abroad - $29.99 at 90% off -> $3
- AWW country collection - $49.95 at 70% off -> $14.98
It's definitely worth checking out if you're in the area! All books have a number and all areas of interest are included.
Here's the receipt.
Anyone know if this promo is at other Dymocks too?
