If anyone is looking for a quality set of speakers a good combo I'd recommend is the Creative Sound Blaster X7 DAC/Amp with the E-MU XM7 passive bookshelf speakers, it's not cheap but worth it if you're a music lover or have family members that are audiophiles.

I wish I lived in the US too, though the pricing gap has shrunk a bit over the years, it's still no where as good as what the US offers.  Though I kinda feel sorry for Australian shoppers, think they have the smallest market out of all Western countries.

Bose is pretty cool, a decent premium system for most users.  lol Just wish they didn't added so much hype in their marketing they could have gotten more sales.

That's true, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Singapore always offers some pretty good options in gadgets, and then there's the China branded products, just flooding the market with cheap stuff only making it harder to find quality goods, lol.

Do you mean BB and the Brick offers better discounts?  It's hard to believe Walmart prices can get any lower, though I could be mistaken.

The Brick for example  has higher prices and better selection than Walmart..



Their prices are higher, so they can offer higher bigger discounts than Walmart.

Looking for a deal on airfare.



Popped into Pet Smart to get some cat litter and cat treats at 50% off, and then was also given an extra $5 off at the til!



Also hit Walmart for some groceries.
