My haul from the Melbourne Mamma’s Market!

By 5 Comments

Last Sunday, I certainly shopped up a storm at Melbourne Mamma’s Market.

 

The new venue at Willliamstown Town Hall was fantastic and with 37 local stores selling brand new designer label gear at 50-80% off RRP, I knew I was going to pickup some fabulous bargains.

 

Here are all the goodies I bought for my daughter. The RRP for all of this was $850.65. I paid $275!!!!

 

My haul included 6 long sleeve tops, 2 tees, 1 bikini, 1 swimsuit, 3 leggings, 1 pjs, 1 nightie, 1 short, 1 poncho, 1 zip hoodie, 2 dresses & 2 butterfly mirrors

 

My biggest bargains were a Purebaby dress reduced from $59.95 to $10 and a Lil Ludy bikini and one piece for only $5 each!

 

Here are all the goodies I bought for my son. The RRP for all of this was $363.50. I paid $160!

 

My biggest bargains were Esp Jeans reduced from $69.95 to $30 and long sleeve Oishi-m tees reduced from $39.95 to $15!

 

This haul includes 3 shorts, 1 jeans, 2 tees, 2 long sleeve top, 1 track pants, 2 storage baskets and a wall sign.

 

Now I just need to figure out how I’m going to fit all this gear in their wardrobes.

 

Anyone else grab some fabulous bargains on the day?
