We’re a savvy bunch, us Aussies. Whether it’s chasing half-price choccies at Woollies or pouncing on a mid-year sale before your mate gets wind of it, we love a good bargain. And, with the cost of living on everyone’s lips (and wallets), the search for savings has become somewhat of a national sport.
According to new research from ShopFully, a massive 62% of Australians are cutting back on non-essential spending, while nearly half (46%) are relying on deals and promotions to stretch their budgets that little bit further. Whether it’s groceries, booze, or bits and bobs for the house, we’re choosing to spend smarter – but finding the best price can feel like a full-time job. Until now.
Enter ShopFully – the free budget shopping app that deal-hunters across the country have turned into their secret weapon. Think of it as your ultimate bargain-hunting sidekick, pulling together the latest specials, promotions and catalogues from top retailers into one easy-to-use app. It’s basically a modern-day treasure map… but instead of gold coins, you’re hunting discounted dishwasher tablets, 2-for-1 snacks, or a sneaky bottle of wine on sale.
Forget flicking through junk mail or opening 17 browser tabs to compare prices (we’ve all been there). With ShopFully, the deals come straight to your phone, and you can filter them by category, store, or location – so you’re not just saving money, you’re saving time too. Want to know who’s got the cheapest nappies this week or where to snag the best BBQ deal for the weekend? It’s all there, no detective work required.
Unsurprisingly, Aussies are loving it. In fact, 86% of people say promotions play a big role in what they choose to buy, and with ShopFully giving instant access to local deals, we’re more empowered than ever to shop smart. This budget shopping app doesn’t just cater to one category either – from groceries and alcohol to home goods and electronics, if there’s a bargain to be found, ShopFully is on it.
