This is one of the better ones. Ethical nutrients is good and has some extra vitamins in the mix, but more expensive, and possibly bad due…

I personally didn't like it, but it's cheap enough to try on. I do quite like the blades that come with this. There can be a lot of trial…

Just tested with Acer and Dell laptops, didn't work on either. Avoid.

I just tried the 45W on a dell and an acer laptop, and it didn't work on either (and they both work with other 45W adapters)

askvictor replied to King Steuart on [Uber One, NSW, ACT, VIC] 73% off El Jannah Combo $10 @ El Jannah via Uber Eats
I feel you'd be wrong. There's plenty of gym junkies who'll get half a chicken for lunch. The chicken itself is low carb, and pretty low…

The course looks like it will take the best part of an hour. 7 days should be plenty

Really depends on your diagnosis. If you don't need APAP, no point paying for it.

I just went to cancel my membership (expires in 2 days) and it gave me an offer to keep it for $20 for the year. Better than this if it…

If it's a placebo and it works, it still works. A couple of my family have found it really helps with sleep; not so much for me, but…

askvictor commented on [QLD] $0.99 for 300g Tofu (Firm or Soft) @ Hanaromart, Underwood Big Market
You can freeze tofu. In fact some prefer the texture after a freeze-thaw https://hot-thai-kitchen.com/frozen-tofu/

askvictor replied to lousy on Garmin Forerunner 55 GPS Running Smartwatch Black $198 (Delivered @ Amazon, Expired) / + Del ($0 C&C/ In-Store) @ Harvey Norman
Yep, though bear in mind that Garmin's training and fitness stuff needs you to be 16 or older
