At risk of going against most people’s opinion here, I don’t rate LB coffee. Currently drinking a Peru SO from a recent deal with my…

Yeah this is why I try to support the small family businesses. They need my money more. And the coffee is decent.

Any idea when it was roasted? That’s usually what I look for in the supermarket ones. Best before dates are useless. However from what I…

I have a Lift which I use when I’m in the office. I have mid to large hands but I opted for the Lift over the Vertical because the Lift…

It’s so you can spend time listening to music while you wait for the next flight after the one you booked was canceled.

This is dodgy sounding. We really should be approaching CR about it because they are making representations to provide a product (the cash…

Thanks. Yeah a commenter above warned about this.

Thanks. Sorry but this stacking and fancy OzB tactics always confuses the hell out of me - if I buy a Macbook Air (say), with the 8% CR…

Usually you can't double dip, so I guess you wouldn't get the cashback with the free Apple gift card, or vice versa. I'm interested to know…

Tomorrow Apple are having a deal where you get a $320 Apple gift card when buying a MacBook. I just checked, it’s about $1800 for a 16GB…

We pick up the Murray St tubs when reduced. I think they get to the same price roughly. In my opinion they are nicer, especially vanilla -…

This is the normal price for Connoisseur. The other price is a 2x markup.

Thanks 🙂

Mostly flying for work. Podcasts and music. I have a nice set of old Ortofon IEMs but I need to get with the times and go wireless and ANC.

Do you have any recommendations?

Mine was canceled too. I suspected this would happen since they are old models and no longer made. Shame, I was looking forward to this, my…

I’ve recently learned about this practice, where the major supermarkets Jack prices of products then put them on “sale”, repeat a…

90W? That’s about 8A with some inefficiency added. 😮 I’m not sure the wiring in most cars is rated to that. At least old ones.

Agree, it’s mass produced using offcut otherwise waste meat. This stuff is no good for you at all. It’s got no fibre, nutrients and is…

Thanks. Sounds like they like talking to their customers!

Interesting, how do you do this? Through the VA app or?

On a choice fare? I’ve been knocked back on that at the standard check in counter, but I haven’t yet tried at the lounge. I have gold…

We got my 4yr old an MN99, which was perfect for him. Goes around walking speed (brisk), so he can actually control it. Looks like they do…

I’ve found my Wera PZ drivers to not fit tightly in PH screws and so is more likely to chew them out.

Might be eBay but I’m not sure.

Giving a kid a gift worth $80 is now a punishment it seems.

Sounds like a good deal. It’s stainless. I’ve got a Mon block set and a Cuisinart block set, all stainless which are good and I sharpen…

3x the price, is that all? Onboard prices are a bit ridiculous. You could ask for a cup of black or green tea and quickly take out the…

I have Gold membership with Virgin and their lounges are mediocre. The food is the main low point, for non breakfast, always a tank of some…
