askvictor commented on [NSW] Free Train Days 31 Jul and 1 Aug
Why does this never happen in Melbourne? I mean, we have more than out share of train network meltdowns

More because they scrapped ticket selling machines on board trams, and the fact that the tap-ons are too slow and would make boarding a…

Seismic on Motorola moto tag: 1-Pack $25, 4-Pack $98 + Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store) @ Harvey Norman

More likely to happen at some stage in the future than the other way around. That said, there are ways to use apple's find my network…

I'm relatively sure that Aldi's organic is rebranded red tractor organic. Packaging feels very similar. I haven't tried their non-organic…

I have never seen steel cut at Aldi.

Personal favourite (more for summer, but still): Mix a handful of oats with some yoghurt (Aldi's organic yoghurt is particularly nice and…

You should never put knives in the dishwasher, wooden or plastic handles

morediscount on Carcassonne Board Game $28 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store) @ EB Games

It's a great 'gateway' game. Easy to learn, but you can start adding more strategic play as you get the hang of it

half a litre of this at bunnings costs more.

Yep, it's a brilliant series. Have just seen it through the second time with my son. I enjoyed it as much as he did; it's not even doing…

starbearer on Stonego Apple Find My Compatible Tracker - White US$1.59 (~A$2.50) Delivered (New Users) @ STONEGO Official Store AliExpress

There are two parts to that - the tag might have a speaker that chirps in that situation, but the phone app also has an alert to the same…

askvictor commented on [QLD] Ozito Hedge Trimmer Skin Only $30.01 in-Store @ Bunnings, Burleigh Waters
Why the 1c on top of $30? I can understand $29.99, but what's $30.01 trying to achieve?

y2k on Jackson Rapid PD PPS Charger 20W $8 (Was $14.97), 45W GaN $18, 65W GaN $27 + Delivery ($0 OnePass/ C&C/ in-Store) @ Bunnings

That's not sold by woolies; that's a random brand using their marketplace. I'd stay away from anything that plugs into mains voltage,…

nng526 on Vitaceuticals Magzorb Magnesium Glycinate 500mg - 100 Capsules $16.50 ($14.85 S&S) + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59+) @ Amazon AU

The Mega Mag, from my reading of the label, appears to be exclusively Magnesium Glycinate, and no oxide? (I'm looking at this…

nng526 on Vitaceuticals Magzorb Magnesium Glycinate 500mg - 100 Capsules $16.50 ($14.85 S&S) + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59+) @ Amazon AU

So if I'm reading it right, the Ethical Nutrients powder has 1.5x the magnesium of the Magzorb powder? I'm using the Magzorb at the moment,…

superforever on Cuisinart Ice-Cream & Gelato Maker ICE-100PCXA in Black $235.00 Delivered (RRP $499) @ Myer

Mine always seem to come out of the machine creamy, but sometimes get too hard once if I put into the freezer. Really depends on the recipe…

RogerLoger on [iOS, Android] Calmspace: Sleep Sounds & Relaxation - Free 1 Year Premium Access @ Calmspace App

Youtube does sometimes put ads mid-video; which is the last thing you'd want if you're trying to sleep. That said, I just download the…

Yes

Frozen roti from an Indian or Asian grocer is generally much cheaper than from the supermarket.

The TRS page says you can't claim good purchased overseas and imported into Australia.

kulprit on Inkbird INK-VS02 Food Vacuum Sealer $49 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ LerwayDirect via Amazon AU

Yeah, I generally wouldn't trust that kind of stuff from Amazon. Maybe if it's "sold and shipped by" Amazon

lplau on Inkbird INK-VS02 Food Vacuum Sealer $49 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ LerwayDirect via Amazon AU

Trust it more that Aliexpress generally. The main difference being, Kmart is an Australian legal entity, so there is someone to sue.

I'm using the kmart ones - works pretty well. Personally stay away from plastics from China that come in contact with food (yes, I know the…

Definitely not the same as an upside down AU plug for the reasons you say. But it _is_ very close (in the sense that it fits). The…

JerryGib on Anko Ice Cream Maker $49 (was $99) + $10 Delivery ($0 C&C / OnePass) @ Kmart

Milk is within the approximation (also, going for higher-quality). I was choosing the pure cream/double cream, which you'd probably want in…

kungfuman on Anko Ice Cream Maker $49 (was $99) + $10 Delivery ($0 C&C / OnePass) @ Kmart

1L mid-quality ice-cream (e.g. Connoisseur) = $6 on special, or $12 'RRP'. Fancier ones are around double that (~$10 for 500mL). For 500mL…
