It’s the 24th of October, which means we are only two months away from Christmas Eve. Fast forward those two months and picture yourself madly rushing about doing last-minute Christmas shopping.
Or … picture yourself having a nice relaxing Christmas Eve because all that shopping is done, thanks to some of the great bargains you’ve found through the YourLifeChoices Deals of the Week.
You can make the latter scenario a reality starting today, by checking out this week’s specials
Break loose with Moose
A reliable internet with fast speeds will be vital for achieving that Christmas Eve goal. Moose NBN has a couple of deals that can help you get there without breaking the bank. First, there’s the 50/20 deal. This gives you unlimited data and a typical evening speed of 50/20 Mbps. For the first six months you get that for just $63.80 per month, $16 off the regular price.
Or turbocharge that, for just a couple of bucks more, taking the typical evening speed up to 100/20 Mbps. You’ll get that, and unlimited data, for just $65.80 a month for the first six months. That’s $19 a month you’ll save each month until well after Christmas.
Check out the 50/20 offer here, and the turbocharged 100/20 offer here. Don’t delay, though. These offers end on 31 October.
Halloween
Let’s not forget that before Christmas comes Halloween. You might be of an age where you’re likely to say, “Back in our day, we didn’t celebrate Halloween here in Australia.” You won’t be alone in that, but the fact is Halloween is now big with the younger generations. If you have kids and/or grandkids, you’ll probably have worked that out by now.
Whether you choose to embrace the celebration completely with decorations, or partly with a few treats, Big W can help.
Big W’s trick or treat specials include selected Cadbury, Mars and Nestle share packs at half price. Or take the theme a step further with Trolli Brite Crawlers down from $10 to $9 for a 500g pack.
You can sort out the kids’ Halloween costumes at Big W, complete with accessories at discount prices. These include MCoBeauty Halloween Black Cat clip on earrings, spider clips and spider elastics for just $6 a pack. That’s 40 per cent off the regular price.
And that’s just a small sample of Big W’s Halloween offerings. Check out the complete range here.
Aldi
Getting back into the ‘be ready for Christmas’ spirit, Aldi has some very attractive items to help you do just that. Enhance the Christmas Day dining experience with some Christmas pudding, a Christmas cake or, better yet, both.
Aldi has a range of beautifully presented puddings and cakes at prices that will make them hard to pass up. There’s the 12-month aged Luxury 700g pudding for just $15.99, with a gluten-free option available. Or take it a step further with the 800g pudding – matured for 30 months – for $19.99.
Aldi also offers two sizes of Luxury Christmas cake. There’s the smaller 200g version for just $5.49, or the larger family-sized one (800g), a steal at just $12.99.
There are plenty of other Luxury Christmas treats, too, including chocolates and biscuits that will make your mouth water.
You can browse the full range of goodies at great prices here in this week’s Aldi catalogue.

Totally not interested in deals offering lower price for ‘first 6 months’. We don’t have Internet for 6 months, so I want permanent cheaper price. I use Internet minimally, barely 15% of my monthly data allowance, don’t use Internet for watching videos, or gaming, but I get charged the same as my 11yo neighbor who spends 6-8 hours a day on computer.
