With this in mind she found a sale on the product at Australia Post, which had reduced the headphones from $249 to $199, and took photos of the price change online and in store.
'I just went to my local Officeworks and showed them a screenshot of the discount and they have to price match it because Australia Post have them in stock.'
So Officeworks sold her the Airpods for $189.05 - which is the original Australia Post price reduced by five per cent.
'Happy hunting,' she said, signing off.

For those in Victoria who can't travel to their nearest store because of the stage four lockdown, customers said they were successful in securing the deal over the phone and ordering it to their house.
'They can do it over the phone but you'll have to pay in full rather than Afterpay it,' another woman said.
