Australia’s two biggest sale seasons serve different masters. Splitting your shopping list between them correctly is worth hundreds.
June’s EOFY sales and November’s Black Friday are both real — but they discount different things, for structural reasons worth understanding.
When something big breaks in, say, March, the question is “which window is closer and right for the category?” A dead washing machine can’t wait — but a tired-but-working one waits for June, and a merely-old TV waits for November. Check the category’s timing page and let the calendar decide.
