Bulk Buys Bulk Buys over the last 3 months have included the Yato Gear in May, Threaded Rod, Beaver Ninja Gloves and Safety Equipment in June. July saw us wheel and deal for Stainless and Mild Steel, Site boxes, Electrical Leads, Ratchet Straps, Drills and Drill Sets. In the next few months you'll see offers for Threaded Rod, Drill Bits, Taps and Dies, Pedestal and Wall Fans, High Tensile and Yato. Don’t forget that we offer you promotional flyers to go along with any bulk buys you participate in. Just let the guys know that you would like a flyer to go along with your order when you place it with the Synergy Team. Without your support, these bulk buys will not go ahead, our target is $20,000 before we send the orders through to the suppliers, anything under this is not considered a bulk buy. There is also a limited quantity of Ramset 101C still available from Synergy. If you would like to purchase any of these items please contact us at support@synergysystems.com.au

If there is anything you have questions about please do not hesitate to contact Cheryl (Cheryl@synergysystems.com.au OR 07-3129-5594 OR 0431277-282) she’ll be happy to help you out. There will be 47 Suppliers in attendance at the Trade Show on Friday. You have seen the specials that they were willing to publish, but there are a lot of suppliers holding their cards close to their chest, not willing to publish some of their deals as they are “too hot”.
