jrvb42 commented on Pre-Register Auto Transfer of CommBank Yello Points to Velocity Frequent Flyer Points & Get First Year Opt-in Fee Free, Save $99
Which accounts can earn Yello points? First I've heard of this, so I'm guessing non-credit accounts don't?
jrvb42 commented on [QLD] Brushed Potato $0.01/kg (Max 5 Bags / Family) @ Skippy's (All 4 Locations)
So if I'm paying in cash, I can essentially get 10kg of spuds free? Bugger paying 1c/kg, too spensive.
jrvb42 commented on 50% off Interrail Continuous 1-, 2-, & 3-Month Rail Passes, 15% off Other Rail Passes @ Interrail
Just a heads-up - Eurail doesn't cover Greece per se. If you can't get to Athens free, then I reckon you can't count Greece. While the…

Coops1 on Up to 40% Discount When Purchasing between 50,000 and 250,000 Velocity Points @ Velocity Frequent Flyer
I didn't think flybuys points could be pooled? Or are you referring to pooling velocity points after transferring? Also, a $6000 (airline…

Sarahlamic15 on 10% off Hotel & Activity Bookings ($200 Min Spend, $200 Max Discount) @ Exploreden
Thanks for sharing that example. I'd encourage you to post a concise range for BNE, SYD, MEL (and maybe some popular Asian and Euro capital…

OzWaster on Jetstar To Charge for Carry on Bags in Overhead Storage (from 2 February 2027)

Just quoted on my home and contents - as usual, yes, Allianz is more expensive - in fact, double my renewal with current insurer - and with…

crackman on No Purchase Fees for $100 & $250 Coles Mastercard Digital Gift Cards @ Giftcards.com.au
At my council, yes. Just wait a few weeks.
jrvb42 commented on Get 1000 Live Better Points When You Link your First Payment Card (No Purchase Required) @ Medibank Live Better
Medibank has quietly devalued Amcal gift cards. Now $10 costs 1250 points, up from 1000. No notice, no announcement. Mongrels by stealth.…
Maybe it's a change of policy - in our new locale I've observed what you're saying - seldom even get to 75% - but gotta keep playing :)
One Coles store in Townsville I used to shop at had 3 litres of milk for 10c about an hour before closing, usually on weekends. Has to…
jrvb42 commented on [BFTP] - Remember Amstrad?
Ah yes, my old Amstrad CPC464. Quite a good box for it's time.

JayParker on Cadbury Favourites Chocolate 489g (Monopoly Edition) $5 (Was $15) @ Woolworths
Check Other Stores defaulted to Sydney for me, and although it found my local stores, there's no actual way to select another store.
jrvb42 commented on Steggles Homestyle Family Roast Whole Chicken Herb & Onion Stuffed 2kg - 2.9kg $4/kg @ Woolworths
Aren't Red Rooster chickens $10 Mon-Wed via app and code? How does this deal compare to that? Colesworth charge more than a tenner for…

Coppermelt on Steggles Homestyle Family Roast Whole Chicken Herb & Onion Stuffed 2kg - 2.9kg $4/kg @ Woolworths
Are the chickens now in lock-down? So, chickens will come self-marinated for the next little while??

jrvb42 commented on $100 for Referrer & Referee for Opening Orange Everyday & Savings Booster Accounts (Minimum Deposit & Spend Required) @ ING
Excluded if you've held an account anytime since 2019 (7 years ago, like ~10% of the average lifespan)? Seems a bit harsh, and perhaps a…
jrvb42 commented on [SA] Up to 40% off Airfares from Adelaide Airport to Various Destinations @ Various Airlines
Would be really helpful for the airport to give concrete examples of 40% off - I looked at the airline list, and only 10% off was clearly…

It seems really odd to exclude current customers. Effectively it is saying, "if you want a good deal, cancel your current card, leave Amex…

jrvb42 commented on Referrer Gets 10,000 Live Better Rewards Points, Referee 6 Weeks Free after 42 Days & 15,000/30,000 Points @ Medibank Private
Everyone (Medibank and spruikers) really should stop advertising a dollar amount as "gift cards". The only gift cards are Amcal gift cards.…

Darude Sandstorm on Automatic Mouse Mover $20 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store/ OnePass/ $65 Order) @ Kmart
Surely the easiest metric is staff output? If the job is getting done, who cares how, when or where?
