TGG have lowered the price on their eBay store, which means you can get a further 10% off with PAYBACK code and 10% cheaper than the Harvey Norman deal, but only 6 hours before this code expires.
Available in both chalk and charcoal colours. Free click & collect or $5.06 postage.
Google Home is also $129.60 which is a decent price for bricks & mortar store, however you can get it delivered here for $117.34 which might be a better deal for many.
I noticed the other day siri cant keep more than one timer at a time.
That's just what you think though.
In your dreams.
"a Swedish study found that men outperformed women at handling multiple tasks simultaneously, with the performance gap being correlated to the female menstrual cycle."

@jv:
Your link has also provided the following:
…"[On] average, men are more likely better at learning and performing a single task at hand, like cycling or navigating directions, whereas women have superior memory and social cognition skills, making them more equipped for multitasking and creating solutions that work for a group."
😁
@JediJan:
Must aways. I am a wee bit busy washing dishes, watching an interesting prerecorded program on "The Celts," ironing, making preparations for the morning, settling a few accounts, and for some reason chatting about multitasking in OzBargain.
Night nights. 🤔
Your link has also provided the following:
Did you read the final sentence in the section you quoted ?
"Importantly, this study contains no such evidence of any superiority in multitasking in women."

But can you post comments and carry on conversations in over 10 OzBargain deals concurrently ?
because I wouldn't find it fun for me.
No problem… Continue on with your ironing and washing dishes then…
@jv:
Your link actually did not show any evidence to the contrary either. But, yes I have a weakness for getting a few hours sleep before an early start. "The Celts" is a rather good series too. 🖖
This things cheap like peanuts
Lots of competition, should be Lil more cheaper :)
Lucky you.. I searched eBay links while posting but couldn't find before..

Good one. I've been buying them for $50 on gumtree.
How many do you have?
or How many he wants?
Three but I need I think a need another one or two for Google to completely own me.
I ordered one from Shopmonk 14 days ago, still haven't arrived yet :(
Google them…
yeah they are a bunch of scammers - take your money then sit on it until you complain to PayPal
Both of mine arrived last week. Was delivered by DHL. Came from Singapore via NSW.
When did you order it?
Good news. I even haven't received the tracker id yet, just emailed them to see what's going on.
Mine arrived last friday DHL from overseas
Update: received response from Shopmonk saying it haven't been sent out, so there is no tracker ID for me: "Please note that our delivery timeline is between 14 to 21 days from the date of placing the order."
Great price! Beats last weeks deal of $53 that I jumped on. But not the intro deal of 2 for $78?
Not as good as those end of year deals Google offered, it was even better at Harvey Norman 2 for $74. Assuming you wanted 2 :) I think $43.20 was the best single unit price through the 20% off TGG eBay deal last December.
Is it worth getting the google home instead of the google home mini?
Sound wise the Home easily fills a room while the Mini struggles and is much tinnier. If you're going to use it to play music mostly then yes it's worth the extra cost.
I've got two of the Minis and while they aren't amazing quality they're more than satisfactory at filling my bedroom and bathroom with decent quality sound. I keep them at roughly 40-50% volume pretty much all the time and have no complaints.
If I wanted to really listen to music, I'd switch to my Sennheiser 6XX cans, but those aren't very practical in a bath or shower…
You can now connect the Mini to any Bluetooth speaker for better sound. For this reason I bought Minis instead of the more expensive Home.
Yes but it can't turn the other device on right? There is something nice about just walking into the kitchen and saying 'Hey Google, play [something]'. I don't think I would use it as much if I had to turn another device on manually.
Wow Hamza23 these seem to just keep getting cheaper and cheaper… :) Thanks! I'm going the Chalk Mini!
Wondering if we should hold out for the next gen now that this is so old.
If the Homes are anything like the first-gen Chromecast they should age fairly gracefully.
still rocking the og chromecast here!
Mine too. I bought original when it was released and It is still steady.
The other ebay listing for the Google Home has been jacked up in price making this the cheaper of the two now.
Google Home has been jacked up in price
The sale ended, it was there for that price throughout the 10% sitewide event with a timer/countdown even stating when the sale price was going to finish. Wouldn't necessarily call this a 'price jack' that we normally see before a sale starts
Oh?
First time I ever saw the listing was when I posted, so never saw the countdown. Just looked like they raised the price. My mistake.
You can never have too many kitchen timers I say…
