It's currently owe one-hundred hours I think.
That translates to 1pm I believe.

Brett Gaddes is shopping around lately looking to save a packet.

Let's start with Flower Power.

I went looking for red felt tipped Bushy Brush I think it's called.
They had none left.
So I settled on a Mozzie Blocker.
It's real name is 'Leptospermum liversidget selection BY11'
Sounds like a friggin' code to launch a defcon 4 or something.
That went out for 14 quid due to a slashing savings sale that's currently advertised.
Saved a buck right there.
I also got a Jelly Bean Succulent and a blue face vase and whipper snipper twine.
All sold for just $24.
The vase was slashed from $4 to a buck.

Flower Power has a range of half dead plants for only $8 reduced from $16 too.
They're still good.

I saw something interesting in Flower Power.

They sold Blackboy plants from seed.
The packet name on them read Australian Green Grass.
We call 'em Blackboys.
They're bloody expensive.
And I didn't know you could grow 'em from seeds in a packet.

We used to fish over at Milperra there once and they used to have these Blackboys in the forest there and on numerous occasions we tried hawking a few but let me tell you, their roots run deep and long and they slice your hands and fingers if you try to extract them out of the ground.

Shop at Flower Power there's currently 10 to 30% savings on all marked stock.

At Woolworths I purchased 2Kg of FAB for only $6.
I think the same deal is on Cold Power as well.
Brett Gaddes recommends FAB though. (The original yellow and Blue one!)

At a savings of 50% off that's twice the washes for half the cost.
Shop smart shop Brett smart.

I also recommend that you try Huggy Moon Rice fabric softener.
Yerrrr sure, you could replicate a cheap option and use Epsom Salts as a fabric softener but show some class and try Huggy Moon Rice.
But be warned.....it can stain your clothes if you pour it directly onto your sh*t.
I pour half in the lid then put it under the tap and let the warm water mix the rest.
Its high concentrated formula kicks massive sh*t out of material.
Don't believe me - read the bottle....it's twice as strong as regular Huggy.

Red Rooster do an ok Fish and chips for only $7 odd dollars.
Avoid that dreadful Henny Penny aka Chicken Express fish 'n chips at all costs.
The chips taste like used oil.

Heinz Chunky Soup was on special for only $2 in Coles.
Generally it retails for $2:99.

I've been eating these 97% fat free soups the last two months and I can tell you what ones to avoid and what ones to eat.

Most of 'em are crap.

They have the hid to call 'em chunky and filling but really, they're just soup and only soup.

I like Irish stew.
Lot's of potatoes.
The Beef and curry potatoe one is ok.

Ones that are yuck are Beef and Barley, Buttered Chicken (all soup no meat or veges) the Beef Beer one is very unusual.
The first mouthful you can taste the beer but after that it's just beef.
There's tones of other flavours but I can't think of them.
Most of 'em are yuck and aren't chunky at all.
The Ravioli pasta and tomatoe soup one is fifty fifty.
Pasta nice but too much tomatoe flavour soup.

Well fine then mister smarty pants.

We're not in the army so why are you even bringing that terminology up?

Why didn't you just say its one pm?

Frederick I left out that Henny Penny aka Chicken Express still do their world famous fried mushrooms to perfection.
They have to be cooked and ate on the spot for best quality.
If you come along and order mushrooms that have been cooked and sitting there for a while then they're soggy and yuck.

Tonight Brett Gaddes is eating KFC Devil wings.
15 for only $10:99.
And 4 small containers of Coleslaws are equivalent to a large serving apparently.

Have you seen the price of KFC lately?
It's getting out of hand.
Once you could buy a bucket of chicken (21 pieces) for only $14.
Today it's like 19 pieces for $30.

And that new skinless breast fillet stuff is 15 pieces for $36!

Kentucky Fried is out-pricing the average family.

One piece of chicken is $2:50 a piece.

We have to buy them mini devil wings. There's no meat on 'em really.
Actually we buy them just for the flavoured coating.

Sorry have I said something that's wrong?

Dutchy....are you aware that Imperial Leather underarm deodorant has changed its smell from its original formula?
Today it smells like a pine fresh flavour compared to its original smell.

Dry Idea doesn't smell like it used to either.

The only one to retain its original smell is that Brutt 66 sh*t.
I hate Brut products.
That smell is too sweet like Calvin Cline Obsession.

I hate people that wear that cheap Lynx sh*t too.
Anyone that over-coats themself in Lynx scents are cheap arses with no class.
Lynx scented merchandise is probably high class product to people from Campbelltown and Penrith.
People from Campbelltown and Penrith probably all wear that 'our version' of Tommy sh*t thinking they're god damn high society.

Some yuppy church I walked by just then had on its billboard 'you can't find all the answers on Google.'
Meaning, speak to God.

Where have I seen that before?

Wait! Wait! Wait!

I've made a huge blunder, people.
I've misled you.

I meant Drive laundry liquid.

Christ almighty Drive not Fab for f**ks sake.

I got Drive on special for half price.
Twice the washes for half the cost.

I also got a new Test Tube Alien since my last one threw in the towel.
I'm now the proud owner of Shako.
The olds thought it was a plant cutting when they saw it.

Lucifer's Garden?
You mean that same septic tank sh*thouse where the green plant grew in a pit of flames but couldn't be consumed by fire?
That same garden?

Dutchy....what have you contributed to LU with shop smart savings?
How can you help the everyday consumer with a savings in any Franklins, Woolworths or Coles retailer?
What personal tip have you got to share Dutchy or don't you go shopping?

What about the hid of Kylie Minogue accepting an award from the brits for having an out of body experience.
What the f**k will they think of next.
I better go e-mail about that.

No good will come of what?

Haven't you other people got shopping tips for the rest of us?

Can I ask one more question?

Have I got any grounds to make an unfair driscrimination complaint against ANZ Stadium Homebush for what they did to me the other night?
Can I sort of sue their arses for what they did to me?

Fantastic thread. Keep up the good work!

And no, I don't think you can claim anything against ANZ - it's their territory, their say over entry pretty much. They didn't deny you because of race, gender, sexuality, age, religion, or disability that I can fathom.

I am never able to understand what this guy is trying to say. He makes an entire thread about stupid sh*t no one cares about except him.

Well shopped Brettles. Maybe you should get in contact with New Idea, Womans Day etc and see about doing a shopping piece each week in one of the womens magz. You could make it from the man's perspective to let the little lady know what to get him as she cruises the aisles of the local supermarket. You might even get a Woolies or Coles sponsorship out of it.
Think about Brettles, a man as whiley as yourself could save marriages with your shopping nouse.

(except if your looking for banner poles, I forgot about that :sarcasm:)

Were you talking about how they wouldn't let you bring in your "RESERVED FOR GHOSTS" banner? Normally there are alot of empty seats at ANZ Stadium, so I can understand why you made it!
