Like some items, the texture 52 00:02:43,945 --> 00:02:46,665 Speaker 1: of the fabric can give fancy vibes. 53 00:02:46,785 --> 00:02:48,945 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and it can go the other way too. You 54 00:02:48,985 --> 00:02:51,105 Speaker 2: can have something that's really expensive but you feel it 55 00:02:51,105 --> 00:02:51,865 Speaker 2: and you get all that's. 56 00:02:51,745 --> 00:02:54,865 Speaker 1: Itchy, yeah, itchy, or like a fancy designer satin thing 57 00:02:54,905 --> 00:02:56,585 Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, that just looks like a bee.

Bridge Road is really famous 90 00:04:25,465 --> 00:04:28,105 Speaker 2: in Melbourne back in the day for that. And as 91 00:04:28,145 --> 00:04:30,705 Speaker 2: I grew up, I developed this love and passion for 92 00:04:30,745 --> 00:04:32,105 Speaker 2: Australian designers. 93 00:04:32,865 --> 00:04:33,905 Speaker 1: Then cost of. 94 00:04:33,905 --> 00:04:37,945 Speaker 2: Living, two children, a mortgage, the brands that I loved 95 00:04:37,945 --> 00:04:40,945 Speaker 2: to wear were no longer in my budget, so I 96 00:04:41,025 --> 00:04:43,745 Speaker 2: found a way around that by going to these sales. 97 00:04:44,825 --> 00:04:47,305 Speaker 2: I would get there really early before work because I'm 98 00:04:47,345 --> 00:04:50,425 Speaker 2: a full time nine till five kind of girl, get 99 00:04:50,425 --> 00:04:52,785 Speaker 2: there soup super early in the morning. And then after 100 00:04:52,825 --> 00:04:55,465 Speaker 2: I'd been I would drive to work and on my 101 00:04:55,585 --> 00:04:58,105 Speaker 2: drive I would voice note all of my girlfriends in 102 00:04:58,145 --> 00:05:02,505 Speaker 2: my group chat.

No they don't have it, 104 00:05:04,545 --> 00:05:06,665 Speaker 2: don't worry about it. Then it just eventually made its 105 00:05:06,705 --> 00:05:08,705 Speaker 2: way out of the group chat and I posted on 106 00:05:08,825 --> 00:05:12,745 Speaker 2: TikTok and realize that the group chat is everybody, Yes 107 00:05:13,145 --> 00:05:13,585 Speaker 2: it is. 108 00:05:13,665 --> 00:05:15,985 Speaker 1: And how long ago was that?

How did you find out about them? Where 117 00:05:40,625 --> 00:05:42,185 Speaker 1: did you? I guess, get that infom Where do you 118 00:05:42,225 --> 00:05:44,265 Speaker 1: get it? Now? I'm wondering if brands like contact you 119 00:05:44,305 --> 00:05:47,505 Speaker 1: and tell you. I bet they do now, But how 120 00:05:47,505 --> 00:05:48,945 Speaker 1: did you know all this fabulous stuff? 121 00:05:49,065 --> 00:05:51,305 Speaker 2: A whole bunch of different places. I would find out 122 00:05:51,465 --> 00:05:56,945 Speaker 2: through just signing up to email, brand email addresses, posters 123 00:05:57,025 --> 00:05:58,265 Speaker 2: walking down the street. 124 00:05:58,385 --> 00:05:59,545 Speaker 1: I was going to say the amount of time I've 125 00:05:59,545 --> 00:06:01,585 Speaker 1: said to my husband if I'm driving, get your phone 126 00:06:01,585 --> 00:06:03,825 Speaker 1: out so men there's a telegraph, take a photo. And 127 00:06:03,825 --> 00:06:05,905 Speaker 1: he's like and then I'm like, oh yeah, okay, that's 128 00:06:05,945 --> 00:06:06,665 Speaker 1: the basic sale. 129 00:06:06,985 --> 00:06:09,545 Speaker 2: I've definitely made my husband go back around the block. 130 00:06:11,225 --> 00:06:11,905 Speaker 1: At the moment. 131 00:06:12,065 --> 00:06:15,345 Speaker 2: Now, brands reach out, I thought, and that's fantastic. 132 00:06:14,905 --> 00:06:16,265 Speaker 1: Because you are helping them advertise. 133 00:06:16,385 --> 00:06:21,185 Speaker 2: But I've also trained my algorithm quite hard. I like 134 00:06:21,265 --> 00:06:25,145 Speaker 2: and share every single sale related post to tell the algorithm. 135 00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:26,505 Speaker 1: This is what I want to say. 136 00:06:26,545 --> 00:06:27,665 Speaker 2: Please show me more of it. 137 00:06:27,785 --> 00:06:30,545 Speaker 1: That's why I'm getting ADHD in best friend content that 138 00:06:30,585 --> 00:06:31,865 Speaker 1: makes sense? Yeah. 139 00:06:31,985 --> 00:06:35,505 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then also things like Google alerts, just regularly 140 00:06:35,625 --> 00:06:38,505 Speaker 2: checking websites. And then you also find throughout the calendar 141 00:06:38,545 --> 00:06:39,665 Speaker 2: there is a bit of a pattern. 142 00:06:40,105 --> 00:06:42,545 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask about that too, Okay, And so 143 00:06:42,625 --> 00:06:45,545 Speaker 1: then that's all kind of I guess, amalgamated into what 144 00:06:45,625 --> 00:06:49,185 Speaker 1: you give us before we get into your personal strategy 145 00:06:49,225 --> 00:06:52,505 Speaker 1: about how to navigate these sorts of sales. Is there 146 00:06:52,785 --> 00:06:55,385 Speaker 1: and if so, what is the difference between a sample sale, 147 00:06:55,425 --> 00:07:00,785 Speaker 1: a warehouse sale, an archive sale? Closing down? So, I 148 00:07:00,865 --> 00:07:03,505 Speaker 1: mean closing out's pretty obvious, But do you find that 149 00:07:03,545 --> 00:07:05,505 Speaker 1: there's a difference. Does it dependent on the wording that 150 00:07:05,545 --> 00:07:07,185 Speaker 1: the brand's using. Is one better than the other? Is 151 00:07:07,185 --> 00:07:09,025 Speaker 1: it just like sale? I think there is a. 152 00:07:08,985 --> 00:07:10,785 Speaker 2: Little bit of new on to it. It took me 153 00:07:10,825 --> 00:07:13,905 Speaker 2: a while to figure it out. Part of it is 154 00:07:14,225 --> 00:07:16,625 Speaker 2: the way that brands also want to communicate it and 155 00:07:16,665 --> 00:07:17,665 Speaker 2: the message they want to. 156 00:07:17,585 --> 00:07:19,225 Speaker 1: Give out the feel of the sale. 157 00:07:19,705 --> 00:07:22,105 Speaker 2: But at its most basic, a sample sale will be 158 00:07:22,185 --> 00:07:25,545 Speaker 2: all of the garments that have been produced whilst designing 159 00:07:25,585 --> 00:07:28,905 Speaker 2: the items these typically in Australia are a size eight, 160 00:07:29,465 --> 00:07:32,305 Speaker 2: So if you see something that is purely a sample sale, 161 00:07:32,665 --> 00:07:34,985 Speaker 2: it's not really for everybody out of it. 162 00:07:35,065 --> 00:07:37,385 Speaker 1: It's likely to be that size. I've been to a 163 00:07:37,425 --> 00:07:39,345 Speaker 1: few where there's mostly eight, so then there might be 164 00:07:39,425 --> 00:07:41,065 Speaker 1: a rack of a few other sizes. 165 00:07:40,785 --> 00:07:42,505 Speaker 2: A little scattering, Yeah, exactly. 166 00:07:42,705 --> 00:07:42,985 Speaker 1: Yeah. 167 00:07:43,745 --> 00:07:47,985 Speaker 2: An archive sale will be past season stock, so we 168 00:07:48,065 --> 00:07:51,145 Speaker 2: call that dead stock anything that has been in the 169 00:07:51,225 --> 00:07:53,985 Speaker 2: store then made its way to its sale section and 170 00:07:54,025 --> 00:07:58,105 Speaker 2: then has been taken offline. The brands have these extra 171 00:07:58,105 --> 00:07:59,745 Speaker 2: stock and they need something to do with it, so 172 00:07:59,745 --> 00:08:01,825 Speaker 2: they try to move it on to the consumer, make 173 00:08:01,865 --> 00:08:04,665 Speaker 2: a little bit of their money back before putting it 174 00:08:04,705 --> 00:08:06,465 Speaker 2: into Unfortunately. 175 00:08:06,025 --> 00:08:08,545 Speaker 1: And the warehouse just means it's generally big and got 176 00:08:08,545 --> 00:08:11,065 Speaker 1: stuff in it. House. Sale is like a catch hole. 177 00:08:12,025 --> 00:08:13,945 Speaker 1: It's just like a term for come and buy our 178 00:08:13,945 --> 00:08:16,665 Speaker 1: stuff for cheaper. Yes, yeah, you're right. I think Archive 179 00:08:16,705 --> 00:08:19,585 Speaker 1: feels a bit like It doesn't feel so like discounty. 180 00:08:19,625 --> 00:08:22,105 Speaker 1: It kind of feels like a bit insidary. But yeah, 181 00:08:22,145 --> 00:08:25,425 Speaker 1: I've noticed certain terminologies to make their more expensive brand 182 00:08:25,745 --> 00:08:29,105 Speaker 1: still not to appear sales in Discounty, but more sort 183 00:08:29,105 --> 00:08:30,425 Speaker 1: of insidery. 184 00:08:30,385 --> 00:08:34,145 Speaker 2: Exactly, and brands can be really strategic about how they 185 00:08:34,145 --> 00:08:37,865 Speaker 2: communicate their sales and speaking to brands directly, they love 186 00:08:37,905 --> 00:08:40,985 Speaker 2: these events because they have their consumer base at shop 187 00:08:41,025 --> 00:08:42,305 Speaker 2: at full price all the time. 188 00:08:42,705 --> 00:08:43,545 Speaker 1: But then they have a. 189 00:08:43,505 --> 00:08:47,705 Speaker 2: Whole different category of people that can suddenly access their 190 00:08:47,745 --> 00:08:49,905 Speaker 2: bleating and their brand, so they and there. 191 00:08:50,025 --> 00:08:52,225 Speaker 1: An entry level and then you go, Actually, the quality 192 00:08:52,265 --> 00:08:56,225 Speaker 1: was amazing. I would consider full price absolutely interesting. All right, 193 00:08:56,265 --> 00:08:58,345 Speaker 1: I need to know all your tips and tricks. Let's 194 00:08:58,345 --> 00:09:01,665 Speaker 1: talk about your sales strategies. So first let's talk about 195 00:09:01,665 --> 00:09:04,265 Speaker 1: an IRL. Let's just got them wearhouse sales for the 196 00:09:04,345 --> 00:09:07,985 Speaker 1: sake of the whole category. Do you check out the 197 00:09:07,985 --> 00:09:10,825 Speaker 1: brand online first before to kind of guess what's there? 198 00:09:10,905 --> 00:09:13,265 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously brands you know you can probably guess 199 00:09:13,305 --> 00:09:15,425 Speaker 1: what to expect. Do you make a wish list? Do 200 00:09:15,465 --> 00:09:17,345 Speaker 1: you just wing it while you're there? What is your 201 00:09:17,465 --> 00:09:19,865 Speaker 1: in real life sale strategy? 202 00:09:20,225 --> 00:09:21,825 Speaker 2: The first thing that I would do is if I 203 00:09:21,865 --> 00:09:24,865 Speaker 2: have shopped the brand, before I go into my wardrobe, 204 00:09:24,985 --> 00:09:26,785 Speaker 2: I go through the pieces and I look at what 205 00:09:26,825 --> 00:09:29,505 Speaker 2: my size is. Smart, so then I know when I 206 00:09:29,545 --> 00:09:31,785 Speaker 2: go to the rack and the sale, I'm picking the 207 00:09:31,865 --> 00:09:35,145 Speaker 2: correct size. If you haven't shopped that brand before. I 208 00:09:35,145 --> 00:09:38,425 Speaker 2: would absolutely look up a size chart online, get your tape, 209 00:09:38,425 --> 00:09:40,625 Speaker 2: measure out and measure your body. It's going to save 210 00:09:40,665 --> 00:09:43,545 Speaker 2: you so much stress when you actually arrive at the sale. Yes, 211 00:09:43,665 --> 00:09:45,625 Speaker 2: that's put it in your notes app too, because if 212 00:09:45,625 --> 00:09:47,825 Speaker 2: you're overwhelmed in the moment, you don't have to think, oh, 213 00:09:47,825 --> 00:09:49,545 Speaker 2: what was I in the pan top? 214 00:09:49,825 --> 00:09:51,625 Speaker 1: It's there. I was shopping with my mummy's day and 215 00:09:51,665 --> 00:09:53,465 Speaker 1: she got a crumpled up piece of paper out of 216 00:09:53,465 --> 00:09:55,585 Speaker 1: her wallet and she's got her like Country Road. She 217 00:09:55,745 --> 00:09:57,505 Speaker 1: sized this and I was like, you're so cute, mom. 218 00:09:57,545 --> 00:09:58,065 Speaker 2: I love that. 219 00:09:58,145 --> 00:09:59,985 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's she didn't want to try it on. 220 00:10:00,025 --> 00:10:01,905 Speaker 1: She knows it's a standard sid shit, that's her size. 221 00:10:02,025 --> 00:10:04,545 Speaker 1: That's so clever. All right, you walk in, I mean 222 00:10:04,585 --> 00:10:06,305 Speaker 1: what are you wearing? Do you wear something that's easy 223 00:10:06,345 --> 00:10:09,305 Speaker 1: to try things on over or whip off or you 224 00:10:09,305 --> 00:10:11,105 Speaker 1: know there's communal chaine rooms often. 225 00:10:11,465 --> 00:10:14,545 Speaker 2: If communal change rooms is a contentious point for you, 226 00:10:14,625 --> 00:10:16,505 Speaker 2: I would recommend wearing leggings and a singlet. 227 00:10:16,585 --> 00:10:16,785 Speaker 1: Yes. 228 00:10:17,025 --> 00:10:20,385 Speaker 2: If you are going to a brand that sells big gowns, 229 00:10:20,425 --> 00:10:23,225 Speaker 2: for example, like a Rachel Gilbert, then I would wear 230 00:10:23,225 --> 00:10:25,465 Speaker 2: a strap of spru perhaps some shape wear. 231 00:10:25,545 --> 00:10:27,785 Speaker 1: Think what would you wear under these clothes normally? That 232 00:10:27,905 --> 00:10:28,705 Speaker 1: is so clever. 233 00:10:28,985 --> 00:10:30,665 Speaker 2: Then you're getting a true picture of what the item 234 00:10:30,665 --> 00:10:32,825 Speaker 2: will look like on your body when you're wearing it, 235 00:10:32,865 --> 00:10:33,265 Speaker 2: and you're like. 236 00:10:33,345 --> 00:10:35,705 Speaker 1: Gosh, that's so smart. And shoes that easily slip on 237 00:10:35,745 --> 00:10:37,505 Speaker 1: and off. Because I went to a sample sale or 238 00:10:37,505 --> 00:10:39,025 Speaker 1: ware house sale a little while ago, and I had 239 00:10:39,825 --> 00:10:41,945 Speaker 1: just sneakers with laceers. But then there were shoes there 240 00:10:41,945 --> 00:10:44,105 Speaker 1: and I was like, sneaker off, sock off, shoe on. 241 00:10:44,225 --> 00:10:46,105 Speaker 1: Oh I've finished looking here. Oh look there's another one 242 00:10:46,145 --> 00:10:48,625 Speaker 1: sneaker on. You know, you've got to think about that stuff, 243 00:10:48,705 --> 00:10:51,425 Speaker 1: all right. You walk in, what do you do? What 244 00:10:51,505 --> 00:10:53,985 Speaker 1: if it's not size categorized? What if you get so 245 00:10:54,065 --> 00:10:56,905 Speaker 1: star struck like me that I'm like, oh sequence, colors, prices. 246 00:10:57,185 --> 00:10:59,065 Speaker 2: I would have a plan before you go in. Oh God, 247 00:10:59,225 --> 00:11:01,425 Speaker 2: So don't need to go in with no idea of 248 00:11:01,465 --> 00:11:02,865 Speaker 2: what you're going to get. That's where you're going to 249 00:11:02,905 --> 00:11:05,585 Speaker 2: get caught up in this hype and this excitement and 250 00:11:05,625 --> 00:11:08,545 Speaker 2: purchase things that you wouldn't normally purchase. Yes, I think 251 00:11:08,625 --> 00:11:11,985 Speaker 2: with normal shop when you go to the local shopping center, 252 00:11:12,025 --> 00:11:15,705 Speaker 2: with your girlfriends. It's not unusual to leave without buying something. Yes, 253 00:11:16,065 --> 00:11:18,105 Speaker 2: Whereas when you go to these sales, I think there 254 00:11:18,305 --> 00:11:20,265 Speaker 2: can be a pressure and a hype. And you've lined 255 00:11:20,345 --> 00:11:23,225 Speaker 2: up for so you've lined up for a certain amount 256 00:11:23,265 --> 00:11:25,185 Speaker 2: of time, you've had to find a car park. 257 00:11:25,465 --> 00:11:27,945 Speaker 1: There's a pressure to purchase, yes, And I think to 258 00:11:27,985 --> 00:11:29,625 Speaker 1: make it work, it. 259 00:11:29,185 --> 00:11:33,145 Speaker 2: Can be taken out of the situation to leave with nothing. 260 00:11:33,305 --> 00:11:34,385 Speaker 1: Oh, that is so clever. 261 00:11:34,505 --> 00:11:36,345 Speaker 2: And if you go with a girlfriend, the way that 262 00:11:36,385 --> 00:11:39,025 Speaker 2: I think about it is there's less pressure to. 263 00:11:39,625 --> 00:11:42,345 Speaker 1: Not because might get something or you both go oh 264 00:11:42,385 --> 00:11:43,505 Speaker 1: that was shit, and then you go and have a 265 00:11:43,505 --> 00:11:45,065 Speaker 1: coffee and you. 266 00:11:44,985 --> 00:11:46,865 Speaker 2: Can look at it as I've just hung out with 267 00:11:46,905 --> 00:11:49,065 Speaker 2: my I spent some time. That just has so true 268 00:11:49,065 --> 00:11:49,985 Speaker 2: a moment of connection. 269 00:11:50,265 --> 00:11:54,465 Speaker 1: Yes, okay, I want to go with you. But the plan, Yeah, 270 00:11:54,505 --> 00:11:55,985 Speaker 1: what do you like? You've got a plan? What is 271 00:11:55,985 --> 00:11:56,385 Speaker 1: this plan? 272 00:11:56,905 --> 00:11:59,585 Speaker 2: I keep a running list in my notes app in 273 00:11:59,625 --> 00:12:02,425 Speaker 2: my phone of things that I'm missing in my wardrobe. 274 00:12:02,465 --> 00:12:04,505 Speaker 2: So when I get dressed in the morning, if I 275 00:12:04,625 --> 00:12:06,585 Speaker 2: put on an outfit and then I go, oh, it 276 00:12:06,625 --> 00:12:08,865 Speaker 2: needs a light colored shoe. I don't have a light 277 00:12:08,905 --> 00:12:12,225 Speaker 2: college shoe. This is so frustrating. Pop that down in 278 00:12:12,305 --> 00:12:15,585 Speaker 2: your phone in the moment of frustration. Pop that down 279 00:12:15,625 --> 00:12:18,465 Speaker 2: because you never remember what you don't have you die. 280 00:12:18,945 --> 00:12:20,345 Speaker 1: I don't even remember what I do have. That's what 281 00:12:20,345 --> 00:12:22,305 Speaker 1: I've got so many repeat items that are almost the same. 282 00:12:22,985 --> 00:12:25,305 Speaker 2: So have a list of what you need and try 283 00:12:25,345 --> 00:12:27,545 Speaker 2: to buy from that list so that you're not overcome. 284 00:12:27,585 --> 00:12:27,905 Speaker 1: To me. 285 00:12:28,505 --> 00:12:30,225 Speaker 2: The other thing that I would think about is do 286 00:12:30,305 --> 00:12:32,705 Speaker 2: you have a holiday coming up, what kind of events 287 00:12:32,745 --> 00:12:34,265 Speaker 2: are upcoming in your calendar? 288 00:12:34,425 --> 00:12:37,385 Speaker 1: And purchase is your lifestyle generally, Like I went to 289 00:12:37,425 --> 00:12:39,345 Speaker 1: one recently and there was the most beautiful It was 290 00:12:39,425 --> 00:12:40,865 Speaker 1: a gown, and I was like, I need it, and 291 00:12:40,865 --> 00:12:43,105 Speaker 1: it's such a good price. I don't got like all 292 00:12:43,105 --> 00:12:44,385 Speaker 1: the weddings are done in my life. I don't do 293 00:12:44,425 --> 00:12:46,345 Speaker 1: a lot of fancy work events anymore. And I was like, 294 00:12:46,385 --> 00:12:48,385 Speaker 1: she's so beautiful and she's such a good price, but 295 00:12:48,425 --> 00:12:49,265 Speaker 1: I do not need her. 296 00:12:49,505 --> 00:12:51,105 Speaker 2: That was absolutely one of my tips that I had 297 00:12:51,105 --> 00:12:53,545 Speaker 2: to bring it down with purchased for your lifestyle, because 298 00:12:53,585 --> 00:12:55,385 Speaker 2: I was just saying when I started going to all 299 00:12:55,385 --> 00:12:57,785 Speaker 2: of these sales, I would buy all these beautiful things 300 00:12:57,865 --> 00:13:00,465 Speaker 2: and I address corporate yes days. 301 00:13:00,545 --> 00:13:03,545 Speaker 1: Yeah, in corporate.

Yeah, so 305 00:13:09,105 --> 00:13:12,505 Speaker 1: be really you are. Yes. One tip I'll have say, 306 00:13:12,505 --> 00:13:14,185 Speaker 1: if you go in real life, if they've got like 307 00:13:14,225 --> 00:13:16,625 Speaker 1: that chart with the colored stickers or whatever, and you 308 00:13:16,665 --> 00:13:18,345 Speaker 1: know one hundred dollars, seventy dollars, fifty dollars, take a 309 00:13:18,385 --> 00:13:20,905 Speaker 1: quick photo because the charts not might be all over 310 00:13:20,945 --> 00:13:23,465 Speaker 1: the warehouse and you go, oh green, how much is green? 311 00:13:23,505 --> 00:13:24,905 Speaker 1: Was that one hundred? You know? So you've got a 312 00:13:24,905 --> 00:13:26,705 Speaker 1: photo of it in your phone and then you can 313 00:13:26,745 --> 00:13:28,425 Speaker 1: quickly decide whether you want to try that on. 314 00:13:28,785 --> 00:13:30,865 Speaker 2: I love that so much, And that's something that whenever 315 00:13:30,905 --> 00:13:33,025 Speaker 2: I go to sales early, I'm always trying to give 316 00:13:33,065 --> 00:13:36,385 Speaker 2: the brands feedback. Yes, so I love when they categorize 317 00:13:36,385 --> 00:13:36,945 Speaker 2: by size. 318 00:13:37,025 --> 00:13:39,985 Speaker 1: Yes, helps everybody, Yes really colol oh I agree. 319 00:13:40,305 --> 00:13:43,825 Speaker 2: And you also need price points in the change rooms 320 00:13:43,865 --> 00:13:46,505 Speaker 2: because that's where you make the Yeah, and there's never 321 00:13:46,545 --> 00:13:47,545 Speaker 2: that I have a budget. 322 00:13:48,145 --> 00:13:50,665 Speaker 1: What fits within my budget? Do I get that fifty dollars? 323 00:13:50,745 --> 00:13:52,825 Speaker 2: That's this smart and then we can add it all up. 324 00:13:52,865 --> 00:13:54,945 Speaker 2: We can leave what we don't want and take what 325 00:13:54,985 --> 00:13:55,425 Speaker 2: we do want. 326 00:13:55,585 --> 00:14:01,945 Speaker 1: That's so clever. Okay, so we're seeing, you know, with 327 00:14:02,025 --> 00:14:04,905 Speaker 1: the globalization of the world. That sound like one hundred, 328 00:14:04,905 --> 00:14:08,225 Speaker 1: but you know, social media shopping, you know, online is 329 00:14:08,265 --> 00:14:10,985 Speaker 1: bigger than ever before. So brands are oftentimes hosting these 330 00:14:11,465 --> 00:14:15,505 Speaker 1: sales online, whether it's a warehouse, archive clearance, whatever. They 331 00:14:15,585 --> 00:14:17,065 Speaker 1: might have a separate site, you know, when you go 332 00:14:17,065 --> 00:14:18,665 Speaker 1: to orit and then you go to oritin outlet or 333 00:14:18,705 --> 00:14:21,785 Speaker 1: Country Red Country a outlet. How do we approach online 334 00:14:21,785 --> 00:14:25,705 Speaker 1: because there's not the frenzy of people grabbing things or 335 00:14:25,785 --> 00:14:29,145 Speaker 1: getting parking or whatever, but it's still exciting. The dope 336 00:14:29,265 --> 00:14:31,105 Speaker 1: me wants to rush in. You want to click and buy. 337 00:14:31,505 --> 00:14:33,785 Speaker 1: How do you approach when there's an online sale that 338 00:14:33,905 --> 00:14:35,825 Speaker 1: might be you know, for a limit of time or 339 00:14:35,865 --> 00:14:37,625 Speaker 1: really really good. How do you do that? 340 00:14:37,985 --> 00:14:41,385 Speaker 2: Firstly, if it is a website that takes you externally, 341 00:14:41,785 --> 00:14:44,545 Speaker 2: like country are and oroton, I would also just be 342 00:14:44,625 --> 00:14:47,625 Speaker 2: really careful about the website that you're on and shopping 343 00:14:47,665 --> 00:14:48,345 Speaker 2: and making. 344 00:14:48,105 --> 00:14:51,065 Speaker 1: Sure that it is real real. My girlfriend bought so 345 00:14:51,185 --> 00:14:53,945 Speaker 1: much from the Decuba warehouse and it was a fake 346 00:14:54,025 --> 00:14:56,985 Speaker 1: website that had sponsored the ad or whatever, and she 347 00:14:57,065 --> 00:14:59,465 Speaker 1: was like, no, that's it and she got ripped off. 348 00:14:59,745 --> 00:15:02,545 Speaker 2: Yeah, so just doing that first little bit of research. Secondly, 349 00:15:02,745 --> 00:15:05,065 Speaker 2: I would have a look at the returns policy. Yeah, 350 00:15:05,065 --> 00:15:08,585 Speaker 2: that is huge. Some places are final sale, which what 351 00:15:08,585 --> 00:15:09,145 Speaker 2: you get is what. 352 00:15:09,065 --> 00:15:11,425 Speaker 1: You get, yeah with it, and with sample cells that's 353 00:15:11,425 --> 00:15:13,545 Speaker 1: generally IRL it's like you just take it. 354 00:15:14,185 --> 00:15:17,425 Speaker 2: I have luck in returning something before, and that was 355 00:15:17,505 --> 00:15:21,185 Speaker 2: because the item I think didn't last. I wore it 356 00:15:21,225 --> 00:15:24,345 Speaker 2: once and it broke apart. I contacted It was Henny actually, 357 00:15:24,825 --> 00:15:27,145 Speaker 2: and I contacted them and I said, this is what's happened, 358 00:15:27,425 --> 00:15:29,265 Speaker 2: and they were like, normally we wouldn't do this, but 359 00:15:29,505 --> 00:15:30,545 Speaker 2: we'll go okya, so. 360 00:15:30,585 --> 00:15:33,225 Speaker 1: Nice and just back to real life before we keep 361 00:15:33,225 --> 00:15:35,025 Speaker 1: going on online. But oftentimes there might even be a 362 00:15:35,025 --> 00:15:37,785 Speaker 1: separate section where it's like seconds or slightly damaged, and 363 00:15:37,785 --> 00:15:39,265 Speaker 1: they might put a little sticker that says, you know, 364 00:15:39,305 --> 00:15:41,785 Speaker 1: missing button or pulled thread, so you know what you're getting. 365 00:15:42,305 --> 00:15:45,065 Speaker 1: But with online, check the returns policy. Smart. I always 366 00:15:45,065 --> 00:15:47,225 Speaker 1: just figure you can't return it, but no you can. 367 00:15:47,305 --> 00:15:48,985 Speaker 1: It takes that risk away if. 368 00:15:48,825 --> 00:15:51,105 Speaker 2: You know the sale is coming as well. Build your 369 00:15:51,145 --> 00:15:54,705 Speaker 2: wish list before the sales start. If you are a 370 00:15:54,785 --> 00:15:58,105 Speaker 2: popular size or there is limited sizing list, it means 371 00:15:58,105 --> 00:16:01,025 Speaker 2: that if the sale goes live, let's say tomorrow, you've 372 00:16:01,065 --> 00:16:03,465 Speaker 2: already got the items in your cart. Some of them 373 00:16:03,545 --> 00:16:05,865 Speaker 2: might not make it to the sales cap. You can 374 00:16:05,865 --> 00:16:08,025 Speaker 2: get rid of those in your cart, yes, but otherwise 375 00:16:08,025 --> 00:16:11,065 Speaker 2: you can check out quite quickly and secure your size 376 00:16:11,065 --> 00:16:12,625 Speaker 2: and you know that you're getting what you want. 377 00:16:12,705 --> 00:16:14,385 Speaker 1: And again, yeah, I guess if the sales coming and you, 378 00:16:14,585 --> 00:16:16,065 Speaker 1: like you said, if you're preparing to it a real one, 379 00:16:16,105 --> 00:16:17,705 Speaker 1: but it's online, you can go to your wardrobe and 380 00:16:18,225 --> 00:16:20,145 Speaker 1: try on or check the size, or if you know 381 00:16:20,225 --> 00:16:22,225 Speaker 1: a sales coming up, or you're just interested in a brand, 382 00:16:22,225 --> 00:16:24,425 Speaker 1: try it on, install, and then head online and wish 383 00:16:24,465 --> 00:16:25,225 Speaker 1: list it. Yeah. 384 00:16:25,225 --> 00:16:27,905 Speaker 2: And one of my biggest tips for shopping online in 385 00:16:28,025 --> 00:16:31,025 Speaker 2: general is I would never see something, put it in 386 00:16:31,065 --> 00:16:34,025 Speaker 2: my cart and then check out without first putting the 387 00:16:34,105 --> 00:16:38,305 Speaker 2: item name into Google Shopping, because Google Shopping is going 388 00:16:38,345 --> 00:16:41,025 Speaker 2: to search the whole web. Yes, and you might actually 389 00:16:41,025 --> 00:16:44,985 Speaker 2: find the exact same item on a different website for 390 00:16:45,145 --> 00:16:45,905 Speaker 2: cheaper yeah. 391 00:16:45,945 --> 00:16:46,545 Speaker 1: And it might be. 392 00:16:46,465 --> 00:16:49,585 Speaker 2: Because there's a first time offer, and particularly when it 393 00:16:49,585 --> 00:16:52,705 Speaker 2: comes to smaller online boutique brands, yes, which is also 394 00:16:52,745 --> 00:16:55,305 Speaker 2: fantastic because then you're supporting small brand. 395 00:16:55,105 --> 00:16:56,945 Speaker 1: But you're still getting a barge. I use the cart 396 00:16:56,985 --> 00:16:58,665 Speaker 1: it app for that, and I always use the honey 397 00:16:58,665 --> 00:17:00,625 Speaker 1: plug in to see if anyone's got to Carfinitely use 398 00:17:00,665 --> 00:17:03,185 Speaker 1: cart it. Oh my gosh, it's so clever. Also, just 399 00:17:03,225 --> 00:17:04,625 Speaker 1: put it in you can't and leave it there because 400 00:17:04,625 --> 00:17:07,025 Speaker 1: oftentimes brands will do abandoned cart So I have a 401 00:17:07,065 --> 00:17:09,105 Speaker 1: skincare brand and after twenty four hours, I shouldn't tell 402 00:17:09,145 --> 00:17:11,105 Speaker 1: the whole all this. If there's something in your cart 403 00:17:11,145 --> 00:17:12,945 Speaker 1: and you haven't bought it, we send you a ten 404 00:17:12,945 --> 00:17:15,145 Speaker 1: percent off coade. Some have got fifteen to twenty percent. 405 00:17:15,185 --> 00:17:17,225 Speaker 1: So just leave it there if you don't need it immediately. 406 00:17:17,225 --> 00:17:19,905 Speaker 1: And I guess that's not in a sale because that's 407 00:17:20,105 --> 00:17:22,425 Speaker 1: you know, this time depends how much you want the thing. 408 00:17:22,945 --> 00:17:24,985 Speaker 1: Do you filter like I guess you felter your size, 409 00:17:24,985 --> 00:17:26,905 Speaker 1: But do you go, okay, this is a fancy brand. 410 00:17:26,945 --> 00:17:28,585 Speaker 1: I'm going to search up to three hundred. 411 00:17:28,825 --> 00:17:32,585 Speaker 2: I will often filter for the item type that I'm 412 00:17:32,625 --> 00:17:36,065 Speaker 2: looking for, then lowest to highest yes, and then go 413 00:17:36,185 --> 00:17:39,985 Speaker 2: into the price range filter yep and get rid of 414 00:17:40,025 --> 00:17:42,905 Speaker 2: anything that's really really low because you're probably going to 415 00:17:42,985 --> 00:17:45,465 Speaker 2: be like hair clips and yeah, hair clip socks and uneasy. 416 00:17:45,505 --> 00:17:47,145 Speaker 1: Yes, it's so annoying. You like, start me at the 417 00:17:47,185 --> 00:17:50,505 Speaker 1: good stuff that's cheap. Yeah, I know. I'm like, imagine 418 00:17:50,505 --> 00:17:53,185 Speaker 1: filtering high to low? Who are these people? I do 419 00:17:53,225 --> 00:17:55,985 Speaker 1: that for fun? I do it for fun too sometimes 420 00:17:56,025 --> 00:17:58,345 Speaker 1: and then I'm like what or like, you know, I 421 00:17:58,465 --> 00:18:00,865 Speaker 1: like the Vinnie's online. He's good. I feelter that high 422 00:18:00,905 --> 00:18:02,345 Speaker 1: to low because I still think, well, you know, I 423 00:18:02,505 --> 00:18:05,505 Speaker 1: get a cheap thing. Okay, that's that. Let me ask 424 00:18:05,585 --> 00:18:09,145 Speaker 1: you any red flags, like any telltale signs of a 425 00:18:09,225 --> 00:18:11,425 Speaker 1: sale not be worth the heih, the travel time, the 426 00:18:11,425 --> 00:18:13,105 Speaker 1: waiting in line. I'm going to guess that's what you're 427 00:18:13,345 --> 00:18:16,265 Speaker 1: here for. But so many times, what I've actually noticed 428 00:18:16,345 --> 00:18:18,705 Speaker 1: is a lot of brands now will do you buy 429 00:18:18,785 --> 00:18:20,305 Speaker 1: a ticket? You don't have to pay for the ticket, 430 00:18:20,345 --> 00:18:22,545 Speaker 1: but you book a time slot because you know otherwise 431 00:18:22,585 --> 00:18:25,025 Speaker 1: really popular brands, the line will snak down, the three 432 00:18:25,065 --> 00:18:27,465 Speaker 1: hour wait or whatever, and you're like, well do I wait, 433 00:18:27,505 --> 00:18:29,625 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm starving, I need to we I 434 00:18:29,665 --> 00:18:31,825 Speaker 1: think that booking a spot is good, but have you 435 00:18:31,865 --> 00:18:33,265 Speaker 1: ever turned up to a sailing on, Well that was 436 00:18:33,265 --> 00:18:35,145 Speaker 1: a waste of time or can you suss it out 437 00:18:35,185 --> 00:18:36,345 Speaker 1: now from the outside. 438 00:18:36,425 --> 00:18:38,865 Speaker 2: I think it comes down to the brand and your 439 00:18:38,905 --> 00:18:42,505 Speaker 2: personal values around shopping in general, and whether that brand 440 00:18:42,545 --> 00:18:45,225 Speaker 2: aligns with your personal value. So that's going to be 441 00:18:45,265 --> 00:18:48,185 Speaker 2: different for everybody. And the red flags that I'd be 442 00:18:48,225 --> 00:18:51,905 Speaker 2: looking for things like quality, what's the quality of the brand, 443 00:18:52,345 --> 00:18:56,065 Speaker 2: the fabrics that they use. So I'm really cautious of 444 00:18:56,185 --> 00:18:58,585 Speaker 2: sales that I see online which I don't promote, where 445 00:18:58,625 --> 00:19:01,905 Speaker 2: it's everything is five dollars, everything is ten dollars. Yea, 446 00:19:02,425 --> 00:19:06,185 Speaker 2: I'm anglucious of the sustainability of that. Obviously that's the 447 00:19:06,225 --> 00:19:09,625 Speaker 2: bigger price points as well. Yes, but when we're getting 448 00:19:09,785 --> 00:19:12,865 Speaker 2: that low, yeah, it feels a little uncomfortable for me. 449 00:19:13,025 --> 00:19:15,465 Speaker 1: Yeah, sure. And I think also what I've learned is, 450 00:19:15,505 --> 00:19:17,665 Speaker 1: you know, warehouse sal you can make it think it's 451 00:19:17,905 --> 00:19:19,905 Speaker 1: really fancy and big, but check the if it's in 452 00:19:19,945 --> 00:19:22,825 Speaker 1: real life. Check the location. Sometimes it might just be 453 00:19:22,865 --> 00:19:24,705 Speaker 1: their little store or a little rack in their store, 454 00:19:24,705 --> 00:19:26,665 Speaker 1: but they're really hyping it up, and so you're like, yeah, 455 00:19:26,745 --> 00:19:28,985 Speaker 1: and then you get there and there's three things, you know, 456 00:19:29,065 --> 00:19:31,425 Speaker 1: I want a warehouse. Yeah, not so much, but you know, 457 00:19:31,465 --> 00:19:34,945 Speaker 1: like I want a decent amount to go through. Very good. Okay, 458 00:19:35,145 --> 00:19:37,345 Speaker 1: tell me about the change room situation. I'm fine with 459 00:19:37,425 --> 00:19:40,225 Speaker 1: communal like you say it. I mean, it's smart to 460 00:19:40,225 --> 00:19:42,265 Speaker 1: wear the shape where I remember once recently I was 461 00:19:42,265 --> 00:19:45,185 Speaker 1: wearing the daggiest period unders. I do that all the time. 462 00:19:45,265 --> 00:19:46,545 Speaker 1: But then I wanted to try on this shear thing. 463 00:19:46,585 --> 00:19:48,705 Speaker 1: There were so many like helpful women that worked for 464 00:19:48,745 --> 00:19:50,505 Speaker 1: the brands, and I was like, oh, I just don't 465 00:19:50,505 --> 00:19:52,305 Speaker 1: need to look at this bit. But then I'm like, 466 00:19:52,345 --> 00:19:55,105 Speaker 1: we're all women in one area, But do you have 467 00:19:55,145 --> 00:19:58,065 Speaker 1: any advice?

Go back? 470 00:20:01,145 --> 00:20:02,905 Speaker 2: It's a little bit different for me because I am 471 00:20:02,985 --> 00:20:05,505 Speaker 2: lucky enough to go a little bit early. Because usually 472 00:20:05,545 --> 00:20:08,625 Speaker 2: I do a loop around and then suss it out. 473 00:20:08,745 --> 00:20:11,025 Speaker 2: I will sus it out in general and then do 474 00:20:11,145 --> 00:20:12,385 Speaker 2: another loop and try on. 475 00:20:12,745 --> 00:20:14,905 Speaker 1: Clever, I go to the back first two bacond if 476 00:20:14,905 --> 00:20:16,825 Speaker 1: it's big and it's busy, because people just get in 477 00:20:16,825 --> 00:20:18,905 Speaker 1: and start looking, I try and go that way.

That's my first point 481 00:20:26,585 --> 00:20:29,185 Speaker 2: of call. If you're not sure, because maybe I haven't 482 00:20:29,225 --> 00:20:31,905 Speaker 2: mentioned it in a post, ask the person at the door. Yes, 483 00:20:32,105 --> 00:20:33,545 Speaker 2: as soon as you walk in, point me to the 484 00:20:33,545 --> 00:20:36,585 Speaker 2: samples rack. Yes, that is where you're going to get 485 00:20:36,865 --> 00:20:39,665 Speaker 2: the cheapest items. There's also going to be one off 486 00:20:39,665 --> 00:20:42,265 Speaker 2: items that aren't there amongst everything else, so that is 487 00:20:42,705 --> 00:20:46,185 Speaker 2: like stress super super best hoist. 488 00:20:46,345 --> 00:20:48,185 Speaker 1: Or like I said before, sometimes it's a faulty one 489 00:20:48,225 --> 00:20:50,025 Speaker 1: or a just damage, but it's a missing button and 490 00:20:50,065 --> 00:20:52,465 Speaker 1: it's like a seven hundred dollar jack at sixty bucks.

Typically footwear is a forty when 520 00:22:11,825 --> 00:22:14,745 Speaker 2: it comes to photo shoes, so we were forty two. 521 00:22:14,865 --> 00:22:16,865 Speaker 1: Oh my god. I love being a forty only in 522 00:22:16,905 --> 00:22:19,585 Speaker 1: a sample sale. It's because I know I'm not sample clothing. 523 00:22:19,665 --> 00:22:22,105 Speaker 1: I am sample hot and like, thank you models for 524 00:22:22,145 --> 00:22:24,225 Speaker 1: having big feet, or you know, anyone can wear a 525 00:22:24,265 --> 00:22:27,465 Speaker 1: slightly bigger shoe.

Can 527 00:22:32,985 --> 00:22:35,585 Speaker 1: you narrow that down? It's a really hard question. I 528 00:22:35,625 --> 00:22:37,985 Speaker 1: bet I've got a couple.

They 532 00:22:47,145 --> 00:22:51,345 Speaker 2: retail for usually over a thousand dollars. I picked them 533 00:22:51,385 --> 00:22:52,785 Speaker 2: up for three hundred. 534 00:22:52,865 --> 00:22:56,385 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, they're so cool and not dissing normal 535 00:22:56,425 --> 00:22:58,425 Speaker 1: buttle shoes. But I'm sure you've worn them since, Like 536 00:22:58,465 --> 00:23:01,985 Speaker 1: they're just cool shoes. They're just very uncomfortable shoes. Well, 537 00:23:02,065 --> 00:23:05,545 Speaker 1: they're beautiful. They are carter bar shoes, I think, Yeah 538 00:23:05,785 --> 00:23:08,625 Speaker 1: they are. Yeah, yeah, such an uber shoe. Yeah. Oh 539 00:23:08,625 --> 00:23:09,545 Speaker 1: they're absolutely good. 540 00:23:10,145 --> 00:23:13,585 Speaker 2: They are my favorite and an old one. My most 541 00:23:13,785 --> 00:23:18,305 Speaker 2: recent favorite pick would be I walked into a brand 542 00:23:18,305 --> 00:23:21,025 Speaker 2: in Melbourne, a local small brand. They had a sale, 543 00:23:21,065 --> 00:23:23,705 Speaker 2: they had a sample rack I picked up a wool 544 00:23:23,705 --> 00:23:26,585 Speaker 2: blend coat the retails for about six hundred dollars for 545 00:23:26,785 --> 00:23:28,625 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars, so. 546 00:23:28,705 --> 00:23:31,905 Speaker 1: Good in the middle. Yeah, exactly, like you want to 547 00:23:31,905 --> 00:23:35,665 Speaker 1: wear it immediately, and I have almost every day. So 548 00:23:35,665 --> 00:23:37,265 Speaker 1: I feel like I'll come down to Melbourne, we'll do 549 00:23:37,305 --> 00:23:38,705 Speaker 1: a round and then you come up to Sitney and 550 00:23:38,705 --> 00:23:40,305 Speaker 1: I'll show you mine. You show me mine and you 551 00:23:40,305 --> 00:23:43,745 Speaker 1: show me yours. All right? Any regrets, surely you've had regrets. 552 00:23:43,785 --> 00:23:46,065 Speaker 1: I'm a dopamine shopper. I'm an emotional shopper. I get 553 00:23:46,185 --> 00:23:48,465 Speaker 1: swept up in the moment. Hence my carry bread short 554 00:23:48,505 --> 00:23:51,585 Speaker 1: cowboy boots. Any regrets that you've bought in the heat 555 00:23:51,585 --> 00:23:53,185 Speaker 1: in the moment that maybe still have tags on or 556 00:23:53,185 --> 00:23:54,905 Speaker 1: you were like, I. 557 00:23:54,825 --> 00:23:56,705 Speaker 2: Have something that still have tags on them that aren't 558 00:23:56,745 --> 00:24:00,425 Speaker 2: necessarily regrets. Like we spoke about Halia, it's occasion where 559 00:24:00,465 --> 00:24:03,345 Speaker 2: I've got a couple of dresses stored away waiting for. 560 00:24:03,305 --> 00:24:04,225 Speaker 1: Me to be invited somewhere. 561 00:24:04,225 --> 00:24:08,345 Speaker 2: Fabulous, me too, But regrets earlier in my day would 562 00:24:08,385 --> 00:24:11,425 Speaker 2: be shopping for who I wanted to be. Yes, like 563 00:24:11,465 --> 00:24:14,745 Speaker 2: that Harry Bradshaw version of myself. That's not realistic to 564 00:24:14,745 --> 00:24:16,745 Speaker 2: who I am. Yeah, be where the regret to come from? 565 00:24:16,785 --> 00:24:19,345 Speaker 1: Okay? And do you think do you ever get swayed 566 00:24:19,345 --> 00:24:20,865 Speaker 1: that because the price is so good? You know, it 567 00:24:20,985 --> 00:24:23,905 Speaker 1: was six hundred and now it's sixty. Do you You're 568 00:24:23,985 --> 00:24:26,505 Speaker 1: obviously a seasoned vet. Now you can stop that from 569 00:24:26,505 --> 00:24:28,385 Speaker 1: making you go, wow, I'm saving five hundred and forty 570 00:24:28,425 --> 00:24:31,225 Speaker 1: dollars because you're not what you're actually spending sixty dollars? Absolutely, 571 00:24:31,345 --> 00:24:32,905 Speaker 1: do you try and take that out of the equation 572 00:24:32,945 --> 00:24:34,505 Speaker 1: and just go do I love this item? Will I 573 00:24:34,505 --> 00:24:36,785 Speaker 1: wear this item? I sometimes ask myself would I buy 574 00:24:36,785 --> 00:24:37,745 Speaker 1: this full price? Yes? 575 00:24:38,105 --> 00:24:41,505 Speaker 2: Clever and obviously that's not necessarily that it would be 576 00:24:41,505 --> 00:24:42,265 Speaker 2: in your budget? 577 00:24:42,385 --> 00:24:43,385 Speaker 1: Yes? 578 00:24:43,425 --> 00:24:45,105 Speaker 2: But would you have it in your wardrobe? Would you 579 00:24:45,145 --> 00:24:45,985 Speaker 2: make space for it? 580 00:24:46,185 --> 00:24:46,425 Speaker 1: Yes? 581 00:24:46,665 --> 00:24:48,425 Speaker 2: Is it a good way to think about it? And 582 00:24:48,465 --> 00:24:52,345 Speaker 2: it's really difficult in those moments where you're trying to go, 583 00:24:52,665 --> 00:24:54,385 Speaker 2: do I buy this because it's really cheap? Is it 584 00:24:54,425 --> 00:24:57,185 Speaker 2: in my budget? Does it through my lifestyle? And it's 585 00:24:57,265 --> 00:24:59,905 Speaker 2: hard to separate that emotion at the moment, But I 586 00:24:59,945 --> 00:25:02,465 Speaker 2: guarantee you that three days later, you're not sitting there 587 00:25:02,465 --> 00:25:03,025 Speaker 2: thinking about that. 588 00:25:03,185 --> 00:25:05,385 Speaker 1: You're not left behind it. You're not and at the 589 00:25:05,465 --> 00:25:06,985 Speaker 1: end of the day, you've spent some money. Yeah, you 590 00:25:07,065 --> 00:25:08,465 Speaker 1: might have saved a lot of money if you were 591 00:25:08,465 --> 00:25:10,265 Speaker 1: going to buy it full price. A spit money. 592 00:25:10,305 --> 00:25:12,025 Speaker 2: And that's where we need great girlfriends when we go 593 00:25:12,105 --> 00:25:13,065 Speaker 2: shopping with us. 594 00:25:13,145 --> 00:25:15,865 Speaker 1: Not to encourage too much. Oh, don't come with me then. 595 00:25:15,785 --> 00:25:18,465 Speaker 2: But to say is this actually. 596 00:25:18,105 --> 00:25:20,265 Speaker 1: What you want? Yes?

Okay, 666 00:28:21,985 --> 00:28:24,985 Speaker 1: Bougian budget, I could have bring specific things because I 667 00:28:25,025 --> 00:28:27,425 Speaker 1: have so much to say. I want you to bring 668 00:28:27,425 --> 00:28:31,425 Speaker 1: specific things if you want. Let's talk about your budgets first.

I believe it is about one hundred and 675 00:28:51,865 --> 00:28:55,145 Speaker 2: thirty dollars full price. It is reduced on the outlet, 676 00:28:55,185 --> 00:28:56,545 Speaker 2: and then when you put it in your cart, it's 677 00:28:56,545 --> 00:28:59,665 Speaker 2: ex twenty percent off, so it's under one hundred dollars. 678 00:28:59,665 --> 00:29:00,105 Speaker 1: Amazing. 679 00:29:00,145 --> 00:29:03,505 Speaker 2: However, I know everybody's idea of budget is different.

I love the Origin outlet because of 684 00:29:16,745 --> 00:29:18,305 Speaker 1: what I do is I stuck up on the umbrellas 685 00:29:18,305 --> 00:29:21,785 Speaker 1: where they're extra tramity stoff is the best gift. Everybody 686 00:29:21,785 --> 00:29:23,545 Speaker 1: wants a bottle of really nice olive oil that you 687 00:29:23,545 --> 00:29:26,265 Speaker 1: can't get at oritin, but everyone needs an umbrella.
