saw this at my local Kmart. it scans up as $7 but the lady at the self checkout marked down the price without any questioning. only a few boxes has the $1 sticker.
posting from my phone, sorry for the lack of detail.
just fixed the image.

Kinda tempted to plant a forest on a friends lawn tonight..
the sign should read - PLEASE TAKE ME… JUST TAKE ME!!
hmmm if you stole it would they bother chasing you for it???
Woah! Levitating boxes as well!
It's rooted to the shelf.
Damn I paid $2 for this last week. Jumped too soon.
When this happens, just think of the 3-R's
Return -> Refund -> Re-Purchase.
I tried that on some stuff with the Big W and they said they can only refund the now reduced price , even when I had the receipt,
Not because the price had reduced but because I genuinely didn't want the item and had never used it. Still in original packaging.
I don't think that is legal in NSW. I've never had that problem with Big W. I'd try another customer service person or ask for the manager. I believe returns have a 12 month timeframe as a limit for Big W. Perhaps someone can confirm this…?
I think I've even returned stuff to BigW after 12 months and without a reciept (still had tags though), they are generally very accomodating.
yeah…that's illegal
not illegal, change of mind returns are only a gesture of goodwill from stores, however this is against Big W policy. If you have a valid receipt you get the price you paid for it. If you don't have a receipt, you get whatever it scans up at
it may be 50C next week. I'd say keep waiting!
wow - that's hot, but it can vary in temperature across this country…
that's 0.549 c per cm !!
Reasonable value I guess.
I can understand why Kmart don't want to hold on stock like this, because basic Christmas trees change so much in fashion each year !!
It'd be dead stock for 9-12 months when you could've sold possibly hundreds of items in the same space for hundreds of dollars of profit.
you're right I guess
(hates being corrected)
9-12 months? Ha! I'm pretty sure I saw Christmas stock start to show in August last year. That would mean it's due for July this year.
Hot cross buns were out on the shelves right after new years! Its ridiculous.
This deal would definitely feature in the "how to do Christmas OzBargain style" manual
Yeah. An orthodox follower of the OzBargain faith holds all festivals 3 weeks after the traditional dates. Lest not he be overcharged.
Ozbargain kid at school
"No Santa can't deliver to the whole world in one night. My daddy says it takes 3 weeks before he gets as far as our house."
"Noooooo mince pies are for Easter, chocolate eggs are for Anzac Day."
How about, buy the tree and decorations before Christmas. Assemble and view for a couple of weeks to see if suitable. Return for refund after Christmas. Save the $1.
Too late. Its now back at 7.50 each
Oh no!!! I paid $2 at Erina yesterday!!
Scrap that… Mine is fibre optic
Kmart use paywave, use your ING for a 95 cent tree
with all the votes, are there any trees left?
There are, but at $7.50 each now.
okay. so I should make this as expired. thanks for the update.

dupe
Checked my Kmart today - they have one, but want $15 for it. Told 'em they're dreamin'
I'd buy that for a dollar!
