End-of-year sales!
We had a wonderful weekend. We took half a day off on Friday as it was terribly hot, and went to the beach at Portsea. Saturday night was spent with good friends. Yesterday we hit the end-of-year stocktake sales for the first time this season – buying some last minute items that were still on our To Get list. CJ bought a long zipoff skirt which will be useful in a hot climate, and we bought a waterproof duffle bag which is essential for the porters to carry our gear on our treks. We looked at daypacks and headlamps but haven’t bought yet. Last but not least we bought quick drying, odour resistant underwear. Probably the most expensive undergarments we have ever bought, at $25 a pop! The marketing hype claims one can travel with only one pair of undies, we are loathe to test this out though!
All in all we saved close to $100 – yay for sales!
