Shopper scores $660 worth of Bonds underwear for just $100 – what a bargain!
- Replies 6
Sharing on a popular bargain-hunting Facebook page, a thrifty mum has revealed her latest successful haul: a bundle of Bonds underwear that was originally priced at $660 but she only paid $100.
Twelve bras, eight packets of socks, two packets of men's underwear, and three packs of opaque tights were among the items she was able to secure for her family.
What a bargain!

The budget-savvy mum posted a picture of her huge haul and said that she got all of the items at an outlet store that was having a sale.
However, when asked which store it was, she became somewhat evasive, as did others who recognised the deals being offered.
'Looks like we will have to head back there today,' wrote one woman in the comments, mentioning and tagging her friend.
According to the mum, the shop that she went to is open during the week from ten in the morning until four in the afternoon, and it was absolutely worth the effort to go there.
Even though the majority of people in the comments were impressed with the haul, they also said that the items weren't worth the full $660.
One user wrote in the comments, 'Just like with many things, the price goes up and the quality goes down over time. Some items are very hit or miss, but at $100, they are a great deal.'
Another person chimed in, saying, 'The bras are a bargain, as they usually cost $59 each, and they are so comfortable.'
Based on hundreds of customer reviews, the retail store received 1.6 out of 5 stars online. Credit: Google Maps.
It is incredible that this one mother was able to save hundreds of dollars simply by being in the right place at the right time.
But are the savings really worth buying Bonds goods or visiting Bonds stores? According to hundreds of people at ProductReview, probably not…
On the website, the retail outlet was given a disappointing rating of 1.6 stars out of a possible 5, based on the feedback provided by hundreds of customers.
It would appear that the products are below par in both quality and standards. One woman who bought an item wrote, 'Their pantyhose are hands down the absolute worst quality I have ever experienced; they don't stay up, end up covered in pilling and are uncomfortable.'
'I am starting to suspect that Bonds are deliberately making their products as terrible as possible; (holes, seams that fall apart, socks ruined after 2 washes) in the hope that you just keep buying more and more Bonds,' she added.
A second person said, 'I have had my Bonds skinny track pants for less than a year and have holes appearing randomly in the fabric – not at the seams but rather the material has pulled apart in places.'
Meanwhile, a third person wrote, 'After 20 years, my relationship with Bonds has come to an end. After less than 3 months of owning them, the most recent pair of women's underwear I bought has holes around the elastic and is already sagging and loose. How did such a reputable brand end up like this?'
