OK, kind of a townhouse. I doubt it is 30-40 square meters. I've never heard of a townhouse or duplex that small. Even most 2-bedroom…

I would renovate it. Nice house in the middle of town would be worth something one day. You may enjoy the lifestyle there too.

What is a granny unit?

Buy a house in New Orleans. Far cheaper than any Australian city,

>Good if you want to go to the beach, hiking, camping (ecotourism) This is what I mean. Nowadays, from Robertson, you have to drive through…

Yeah, maybe an OK suburb if you want to spent your entire life either at home or at a busy restaurant. To go anywhere interesting, you…

Yeah, with current and future fuel prices and global trends, I wouldn't buy a new ICE vehicle if someone held a gun to my head.

I saved $260,000, then bought an apartment for $350,000 during COVID (house prices were up, but apartment prices were down). Sold it for…

It's fairly obvious that people return products after changing their mind or finding the product unsatisfactory, and Amazon repackages them…

You're right, prices are getting a bit ridiculous. But no, I'm not very old, and don't live regional. I saved up for ages (12 years)…

I don't know how you people who take out >$1 million loans sleep at night. In my opinion, this is what's wrong with the Australian property…

Thanks. Do you need a pretty deep desk with 3 x 27 inch monitors?

Just wondering what monitor size Ozbargainers recommend for productivity, with possibly some gaming use and/or video editing in future: 27…

Someone told me that if you don't want anything stolen, you should paint everything in your house with fresh dog poo. Then put a big sign…

>I saw someone complain about ghosting. As I understand it, this is not a problem with the monitor itself, but with VA type panels. When…

Good deal, 2 kg for $63. The tasteless, stale supermarket beans only cost a bit less than that.

Most soy milk brands adds a strong flavour/aftertaste to the coffee which isn't that nice. But Bonsoy doesn't seem to add any strong…

You should just be like me: Buy cheap stuff. Never use it so it never dies. Then you never get pissed off and everyone lives happily ever…

LimeBlue vs Airjo, any opinions on which tastes better? (I know it is personal preference, but still interested).

Might be big enough if I glue all 10 together.

The three changes that have massively improved my coffees (to my taste) are: 1. Switching from cow nipple fluid to Bonsoy (or Vitasoy); 2.…

I agree, there a bunch of Beatles songs I can't stand, and most are "granny" songs written by Paul McCartney, with broadway musical-style…

Beatles were making songs like this before commercial synthesizers existed, and before Thom Yorke was born:…

Are you talking about Metacritic? The remastered version of Ok Computer got a 100% positive score on Metacritic, but that's based on only…

>Personally I find the Beatles to be lacking in conceptual depth, lyrically stunted and sonically tepid. I can understand why others who…

Do you remember 20 years ago when a kilo of rice cost $1, but a paperback novel cost $25, and a hardback cost $35-$50? Meanwhile the same…

You're absolutely right. Radiohead are pretty good, but "greatest album of all time" is ridiculous and reeks of limited musical exposure.…

I don't eat it often, but it's nice with banana, desiccated coconut, honey, cinnamon, soy milk.

I will use it to compensate for my increasing poverty as a result of the cost of living increasing far faster than my salary over the past…

What do people use gaming laptops for? Gaming while travelling?
