From 2008 to circa 2013, they were the best - no fee, decent rewards, Qantas points. Then they removed the Qantas points, reduced the…

You'd think one or more global alliances (something like airline alliances, but for banking) would emerge with free ATM withdrawals for all…

It was. Citibank dining (ie at selected restaurants get a free bottle of wine, usually when spending more than $50 and paying with a…

Yes. Have a look at skip lagging /hidden city pricing in the USA - basically it can be cheaper to travel further sometimes, because…

Same situation - mi 9T still working fine, yet tempted by this. Here's the spec sheet comparison:…

Looks like you can't use the dishwasher for the bowl - no mention of that in the manual (even objects to stuff brushes and harsh soaps).…

In store looking at it right now, and the manual says 2 to 10 cups capacity.

Now says "This offer is valid for new policy purchases from 1 March 2022 – 26 March 2024", and it seems to be valid now.

Thank you. 24 drives is enough that you'd have to think any problems would have shown up by now. I also looked into the Crucial MX500 too,…

Highly doubt it. Status credits are generally flights only + a few special promos.

Wow, That's a rubbish experience! I've had Korean Airlines give similar warnings about you potentially may not get a room, at our…

Thank you for the tip, had never read about this method before, so just looked into it, the downside of the donabe method appears to be…

I've got an old cheap one, where the internal coating has peeled off 40% of the bottom of the bowl, which would like a word with you about…

I think one of the things that makes low cost carriers work in Europe (eg easyjet or Ryanair), is the EU penalties if they have delays.…

Have the reliability issues with the Samsung evo 870 drives been fixed? It seems like there were lots of failures this model, in 1TB and…

I guess I'm looking for a "keeper" card with a very low/no annual fee, a low credit limit (e.g. $3k is perfect) that earns Qantas points…
03/07/2023 - 17:11
Yeah, this plus the monthly spend requirement to avoid the fee, kills it as a card to keep around after the bonus. For example, if you…

That all sounds pretty good. Almost everything is newer than Android 9, and rolling it out via Google Play Services is probably the best…

Be pretty awesome if Android had something similar. Tags, especially in luggage, is a clear winner. Even better if the two companies…

They're not available at the 2 Coles stores I visit (Sydney, inner-city), and that's why I couldn't find them.
21/06/2023 - 13:07
Clueless question time: Which general section were they in? E.g. frozen, or refrigerated, or on the shelf? Guessing probably not shelf as…

The 1 kg Oro packs used to be $15 half price at Coles (I'm in inner city Sydney) from 2019 (or so) until mid 2021, but it has been creeping…
