Mum, Leanne and I travelled the loooong journey to Geelong yesterday to go to the Kaiser discount outlet. Definately worth a visit if you're in the area, or if you can carpool like we did, a nice day out.
Cheryl (aka Chez) and the other lady who was there were SO lovely and welcoming. If you go, make sure you print out the coupon sheet to receive a freebie and be sure to tell Chez I sent you ! I was the first person who had used the coupons apparently and Chez was so beside herself she was literally screaming ! HAHA I think we instantly became friends, vowing to email eachother and stuff, she's such a treasure :)
I bought a few a handbag albums and arrow albums - they were $1 each ! The handbag is a second because the holes are at the bottom, but I think they are better with the holes at the bottom anyway ! I don't know why the arrow albums were so cheap ? All the other albums and OTP things were the same price as at the shops as they weren't 2nds.
I got a set of circle stamps for myself...they were $5 because the word "believe" is spelt incorrectly on one of the small circles (the fault of a man I'm told). I looked and looked for the error but couldn't see it till it was pointed out. It would be easily covered by a flower or something, or else just don't use that particular stamp.
The flowers were just loose in a box and were $1 for 20. Mum bought loads and we went halves. She spent $10 on flowers but we have hundred and hundreds each. I sat and separated all mine as many were stuck together in clumps and I've got a huge tin full ! The colours are cream, mint, sky blue, sepia and light pink.
They had discounted paint and papers, as well as all of the latest products (at regular rrp). I wanted to get some big bottles of paint for Kade but didn't have enough cash on me. Inkpads were $1 each for the little ones, not sure how much the big ones were. There were stamps and reinkers, MDF shapes, frames and other OTP items.
They had boxes and boxes of 1/2 sheets of paper. I got couple of each of the 1/2 sheets of skull boi and military to use on cards. I should really have grabbed a handful of each them (they were 40c per half sheet or $20 for 100) but was limited by how much money I had on me (I had incorrectly assumed they'd have EFTPOS). Mum and I will probably go back another time.
They had boxes of 24 small bottles of glue for $5. Mum and I went halves in a box. They had loose blank cards and envies, 100 for $7. I got 100 white envies for my cards.
The coolest thing is that for every $10 you spend on products, over $9 goes to help disadvantaged children !
