Thank the lord I decided against buying shares. Following on from the discussions last week about discounting and offers at Myer, a mate put the store to the test. Armed with her viral “Family and Friends” discount voucher (she is neither Myer family and only vaguely know people working there), she went to Myer Sydney to get her 20% discount.

Someone joked that Myer was almost paying customers to shop, and here’s what happened: Arrived at store to buy shoes (already discounted). Myer having a footwear sale (get another 30% off); Myer Sydney having a special one day sale just for the store (get another 15% off) and then get my Family and Friends discount (another 20% off).

The lady in shoes said it was a good day to shop at Myer and she was right. Not so sure whether it was a good day to buy shares in Myer though.
