hocus commented on Apple Gift Card $40 - What to spend on?
An Apple AirTag? Provided you use an iPhone, it can be a lifesaver when you lose your keys.
hocus replied to linkindan on SIM Only Plans: 50GB/Month for $15/Month, 100GB/Month for $20/Month, 250GB/Month for $30/Month for 12 Months @ Circles.life
It doesn't on pricing, but IMO Circles' network coverage beats Felix (Optus vs Voda). You can't compare apples and oranges. I made the…
hocus replied to Levelgrinder on 10 Days China Express Tour: from SYD/MEL $990 Per Person Twin Share, BNE/ADL $1290, PER $1390 (Sep 24 - May 25) @ Flight Centre
It’s full service, includes meals, seats and checked bags. The quality of the service is another matter …
hocus commented on Westpac Have Finally Changed Their Password Requirements Allowing for Longer Passwords
These are the new password parameters: "We’ve updated our password requirements. Your new password must: *be between 8 and 30 characters…
hocus commented on China Southern Vs. China Eastern Airlines
If you're a QFF China Eastern might be better. As it's a partner airline, you can collect QFF points (but not status credits). I think…
hocus commented on Recommendation: Android 11 Projector for Bedroom
You won't find anything that is portable, HD, and smart (OS-wise) at that price point. For $200, just get a cheap one off Amazon (sellers…

hocus replied to Arsi on Capital & Tianjin Airlines SYD/MEL Rtn: Shanghai fr $389, Chongqing $402, Wuhan $418, Changsha $477 & More @ Beat That Flight
Capital Airlines include two 23KG bags in all economy fares. Carry on is 7kg (if I recall correctly), but no one checks.
RIP sounds like your local might be run by a stingy franchisee
Maybe it differs between franchisees, but the ones I've seen have all put up a sign (e.g. 'afternoon special'). Probably depends on closing…
FYI China Southern provide free layover hotels over ~6 hours (i think). Transit visa is available on arrival. Hainan is rated 5 stars on…
hocus commented on iPhone 15 128GB $1152 + 17,100 Telstra Plus Points (Earn 11,520 Points) @ Telstra Plus (Telstra ID Required)
Thanks OP, used 23,600 points to buy IP15PM 512GB for $2184, saving $365 (~15%) off RRP. It looks like pretty good value - usually ~20k…
hocus replied to CheapBrah on Ho Chi Minh City Direct Return Flight: Depart Melbourne from $302, Sydney from $311 (Fly Apr-Jul, Oct-Dec) (Sold Out) @ Jetstar
If you need food and bags, the savings will be diminished, but it great to have the option if you don't need them. e.g. I fly to NZ…
hocus replied to Icecold5000 on Ho Chi Minh City Direct Return Flight: Depart Melbourne from $302, Sydney from $311 (Fly Apr-Jul, Oct-Dec) (Sold Out) @ Jetstar
Lucky you're in Sydney! Melbournians aren't as spoiled for choice 🥲 I think it all comes down to the person at the end of the day, and…
hocus replied to Icecold5000 on Ho Chi Minh City Direct Return Flight: Depart Melbourne from $302, Sydney from $311 (Fly Apr-Jul, Oct-Dec) (Sold Out) @ Jetstar
Personally I'd pay the $140 difference just to avoid a stopover in KL with AirAsia. But I can also see how some may value the $140 saving.…
hocus commented on Free Delivery for App & Online Orders with No Minimum Spend (Free el SOCIAL Membership Required) @ San Churro
Note that the prices are marked up from dining/takeaway prices. Delivery is done through Doordash, and prices are Doordash prices.
I'd say thats more than minor ....
hocus replied to Scrooge McDeal on London to Melbourne £362 (~A$700) Return (Fly May/June) @ Air China
Yeah looks like a price error. There's been quite a few sub-$1000 return deals to Europe ([Rome](https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/825743),…
hocus replied to Scrooge McDeal on London to Melbourne £362 (~A$700) Return (Fly May/June) @ Air China
It's not as slick as Singapore or Qatar, but it's still a full-service carrier. Baggage is usually 2x 23kg in economy, 7kg carry on (which…
hocus commented on Commbank Yello Rewards Locked
I was able to unlock Yello by doing 5 x $1 transactions at Coles selfserve checkout, after they were no longer pending. I tried doing 5 X…
Where did you see that? A quick glance at the T&Cs says only St.George, Bank of Melbourne or BankSA customers are excluded.
You're welcome. If you're still looking I recommend [RWRDS](https://www.rwrds.com.au/) as a good starting point. Whilst it isn't…
Bang for your buck is a better way to put it! In OPs case the could go for Qantas Amex Ultimate ($3000) + the ANZ Qantas Black ($5000), and…
I agree with your sentiment that you shouldn't exceed your 'normal' spending just to get the bonus. What I'm trying to indicate is the…
hocus commented on Qantas Credit Card Vs Gift Card Credit Card
Purely from a bonus offer perspective, ANZ looks better by far (assuming you personally value/use QFF points). $12,000 is a lot to spend…
If you can't be bothered selling on FB Marketplace, Mobile Monster usually buys 2nd hand phones at a better price than trade in. If you…
Tbh 100m isn't that long on a freeway. An ordinary merge lane is about 100m if you excluding the taper towards the end. OP clearly…
hocus replied to lumunes on 20x EDR Points on Apple Gift Cards | 15% Cashback on Pocket Money Prepaid (Digital) Gift Cards + $5.95 Activation Fees @ BIG W
I've personally never heard of Apple GCs being tampered with. From memory the packaging is usually quite secure. Unless the scammers did it…
