I ended up getting more for my money, too. It was interesting to shop in a different supermarket. The lanes are different but most products sold are the same. Actually, the lanes are wider at Coles. Pasta bows and nail-polish?? Only you Angela! You are so incredibly creative. Love, Blaire xx Luckily, Coles had some good specials, including these 98c crackers!! Bargain:

76. One Red Robin Winner Destination Gippsland: Competition Winners Hey Jho, Thank you so much for those wonderful write ups on the Gippsland region. It is great to know such beautiful attractions exist only 1 hour out of Melbourne , and this is such a viable alternative to the usual tourist attractions (e.g. Grampians, Great Ocean Road), which are much further away. For the crafter, it sounds like a haven as well with lots of artistic and crafty things to keep you occupied. In fact, I think it would be a perfect destination to spend a week - one could take advantage of the peace and quiet to work on their hobbies, and also take short trips to visit the attractions. For the family, I think there would be plenty of interesting things such as horses and alpacas to keep the little ones entertained. Anyway , Gippsland is definitely on the todo list - thanks again! Julian “ Why do you want to visit Gippsland?”
