I might be missing the point here (not unusual); but I had been searching for about a year for Melbourne to Manchester return (via…

We also need Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Morrison’s, Asda, - and yes, even Waitrose!! Not to mention Argos and B&Q☺️…. Still pining for…

Bit older than you; but don't eat after 6pm, and eat a high fat, low carb diet:).

Not sure if I am repeating same advice here; but for anything that is over 20 AUD we do PayPal. Temu reel you in then pull the plug..…

Thank you! I really did mean "Do NOT book anything with Webjet!".. Unfortunately I cannot edit my post now :(.

Interesting info here. I am wondering if (like us, who are also just retired) you have settled on Emirates/Qantas because they allow eight…

Thanks for the suggestion. This is our usual solution, - if something isn’t too bulky😝.

Enjoying the comments. However, in Tassie we have no Aldi; so of course Bunnings have not sent any stock to any of their stores here.

I go to Aldi whenever we are interstate; as Tassie has NO Aldi. (Supermarket-wise, Coles, Woollies and a few IGA is all that is…

Same here. Slightly more expensive, but worth it for the extra space they (hopefully) have.

Thank you for putting these up. Really appreciated. It saves scrolling through the catalogues/online pages, which are keen to push…

Sorry, but I personally don't consider an annual request an example of pestering..

I do the same. They don’t pester either, (well, not me anyway☺️). I like the simplicity; no garnish. The wiki conversion from US cup…

I'm afraid so. Eight hours is just about manageable. I guess the Emirates one is no more expensive than flights used to be pre-millenium.…

Apologies that this is not strictly relevant; to this post; but as an older traveller I would like to see more short leg flights from Aus…

We always book the hire car (not pay until later though), as soon as we have booked our flights. Way cheaper in advance.

Have to agree with Geoff01 regarding off peak tourist offerings. We last went over for Christmas 2018. Apart from Center Parcs (yeah we…

Because we fly in and fly out from the same airport it was easier (and not too much more expensive to pick it up from the airport, as it is…

Savemore - agree about Giffgaff for sure. We have been visiting every few years for the last twenty-five (since emigrating from UK to Tas).…

Appreciate the information. Half price is a great incentive; but IMO the same products all the time mean that it isn't going to encourage a…

Lucky you, that you can shop around. All we want in Tassie is an Aldi store:( ....

We prefer to get “tail off”, just to save time. Fry in butter (unsalted, haha); then loads of garlic - pretty tasty. Sometimes just…

My husband found a couple of great ones - from the charity shop. Beautifully made, easy to clean and proceeds to a good cause:). Worth a…

Same here. We had been loyal customers of Aaaaaa ...; but received higher renewals each year through our email. So we suggest that you…

Haven't really had a reason to use IGA. Now that I see that Tassie is excluded (cannot see a reason given either); I won't be.

Great post! I got $50 off a food mixer, free C and C and flybuys points! Thank you muchly:).
