Rise and shine, members! Happy Wednesday! Can you believe we're already halfway through the week? Well, the SDC team and I (Vella) are here to help you get over the hump with a few bits and bobs to keep you entertained and informed. So, grab a cuppa and sit back as we ease you into the day with a chat. First, we have our weekly discounts from Coles, Woolworths, ALDI, and IGA to help you stretch your budget a little further. Next up, our second riddle of the week:

When you need me, you throw me away. When you don’t need me, you bring me back. What am I?

Our riddles have been getting tougher, eh? But we know you love these challenges! So, if you think you know the answer, head over to our Riddle Masters thread here. If you get it correct, we’ll give you a shout-out in tomorrow’s newsletter.
