‘Check them!’: Bargain hunters reveal tip to score discount buys
Social media has been abuzz about the $3 Big W buys, but according to Markdown Addicts group members, not all discounted items have been stickered.
“Some weren’t marked down on the tag but scanned as $3,” one group member said.
“I found that so much stuff is scanning at a discount but not marked down,” wrote another.
“They weren’t marked on the tag, but I grabbed them and checked them and they scanned at $3,” posted a third.
“The staff said they were going to sticker them soon, but wanted to leave them out for people to grab first,” said a fourth.
Group members have also flagged that bargain hunters should keep a look-out for the code S21 on item tags, with reports that S21 items are all scanning at $3.
Delighted group members have labelled the $3 sale as “awesome,” writing in comments that they’ve never seen bargains like this before.
