Seriously, it's a keep cup. Glass is an insane material to use for something that will be dropped and bashed around. Go to Big W and spend...

15" screens are really inconvenient for school use. They're just too big to lug around all day or fit comfortably on a desk. I'd compromise...

Tipping State-side:. 1. Where appropriate, do tip. "I'm Australian, we don't tip" isn't appropriate and is a poor excuse. Many workers in...

Buy any HP printer once, regret often. Most crazy ink prices, and very hard for non-oem to support

EspressoDan replied to Grish on [NSW] Buy One Get Free Small Coffee @ 7-Eleven Lithgow
Honestly, I like to game 7/11 coffee. I put 2x$1 shots in a $2 cup and top up with milk and pay $ 2 (It makes a stronger cup). I think what...

EspressoDan commented on It's your responsibility. When does it become the fault of others when you ride without a helmet, and you're in an accident?

EspressoDan commented on 50 Pcs 10ml Medical Syringes AU $0.61 Delivered @ BuyInCoins
Great for oiling the Bike. At the price, I suspect that the needles count as a piece, so I'd expect to get 25 syringes max.
