Waiting 2 months for $1 if it even tracks the sale seems counter productive to me. I'm sure cashrewards get their commission from the sale.
Queue the cr fanboi
seems counter productive to me
Waiting 0 months for $0 seems counter productive..
Yeah but CR will definitely earn their money whilst you wait around to hit that withdrawal minimum, and from what I see has now been raised higher so they can sit on the affiliate money for longer. I have seen time and time again when people use services like these and never hit the withdrawal minimum, so technically never receive the 2% off. Probably not the case for obsessive shoppers on OzB who would have no problem hitting the requirements, just a bit misleading for the shopper who doesn't shop enough online to hit the number.

The withdrawal minimum is $10.01, if you spend 1K online (not hard to do unless all you buy are fidget spinners)? At a 1% cashback rate (usually much higher) its easy..
I have over $250 ready to be paid out.
If you're concerned about someone earning 2 months of interest on $10.. You probably shouldn't be buying anything unnecessary online
Gr8 jack. Just remember to pick up a block of timber on your way home cause the top height of this thing is limited .. 375mm from memory
Indeed you're right
Working height range: 85 - 375mm
Your memory appears correct! Thanks for the advice:)
Will this be OK for an Astra sedan (mine seems too close to the ground to me), or you reckon I would still need a block of timber for extra height?
Depending what jacks you use, some start at 300mm whilst the more expensive start at 370-380mm. If you jack the car up on the lowest point on the kframe you shouldn't have any problems. Unless you actually need to jack it up often I would just use the supplied jack in your boot. They work well..
Ta. It's just that I find the one in the boot very weak and hard to lift as well. I wanted one for normal car servicing, like changing engine oil etc, and someone suggested ramps, so I might use my old one and try to find some affordable ramps for those other tasks, I guess.
If you're in no rush SCA have deals often for about $50-80 that include a jack, stands and a creeper (and sometimes wheel chocks). It's been a while since the last combo deal so I'd imagine there would be one soon.
@Lenny Pepperidge: Great! Yeah, I am not in a rush and I am in fact after stands as well so I might keep an eye out for such a deal and hope for the best. Ta
Hi mic mac, does this jack come ready to use straight away or do you have to buy oil for it?
Ready to go..
Cheers mate thanks!
@montorola: no probs but please do yourself a favour and buy some jack stands too. It's plain prooer dangerous relying on just the jack to hold the car up.
Yes, definitely.
I already have some stands but needed a low profile one to avoid using the crappy scissor jack that came with the car
Cheaper again via Supercheap/Ebay:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/192210666977
$49.97 - 15% (Ebay Code) + Free Click/Collect = $42.48
CHOPCHOP Post/Details https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/312860
The CHOPCHOP code is one time use only, and works with orders over $75.
True, but it's single purchase, max 10 items and most everything in the Supercheap catalog is on Eay, so it's not hard to pickup other double-discount items.
I meant that might come in handy for anyone who hasn't used the code yet. Most OzBargainers (including myself) jumped on the GoPro deal so we can't use it again. But I know what you mean.
Fair call.
Given that the 15% has been a weekly thing, I got my cart full of stuff to buy during the week.
Wow the site looked like it had a fair bit of traffic, but got one for $49.97 including delivery!
Now I have 3 jacks.
This is the cheapest price posted for this jack, great find OP
I need the Toolpro 3000kg and it's a bit pricey at $249.
$179.10?
Seems similar, cheaper, free postage and 70-500mm. Considering this one myself

Toolpro has a max height of 550mm which I need. It appears SCA has taken off their ebay listing for the 3000kg jack this morning.
2000kg SCA under $60 for those who need a higher reach but not lp http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/Product/SCA-Hydraulic-Troll…
Store name in title please. And you can remove the cashback part in the title 😉
