Freebies/saving guides in Australia

I know this is a bit deviating from the main intent of the blog. However, whether one is a student or a working professional in Australia, a few extra bucks in the pocket are always welcome .. :)
I have benefited from few of the good deals and would like to share a few here. If you would like to suggest more deals just leave a comment and I will incorporate it in the blog... Cheers!

4. Dollar Shave Club - Free razor and blades

  • Create a new account with dollar shave club by clicking here  but do not place an order.
  • Wait about a week and you will be sent some spam such as this: (http://i.imgur.com/5MqBLlP.png)
  • Still don't place an order but wait another few days and you should receive an e-mail with a coupon for a free month (http://i.imgur.com/Q1F3dLu.png)
    "Okay, okay, how about a free month?"
    "Still on the fence about Dollar Shave Club? That’s cool. While you’re thinking it over, try the Club for a month on us. We’ll send you a free handle and a pack of blades. If you like them (and we’re pretty sure you will), you can keep getting them from us. If not, well, at least you gave them a try. Did we mention that it’s free? It is. It’s free."
  • Place your free order for any shaver type then cancel after a few days if you don't wish to subscribe.
