He's actually not far off the mark which is pretty hard to believe, but it is true. In QLD, civic construction projects are undertaken by…

I believe Greater Bank and Newcastle Permanent are actually the same company. So doesn't surprise me!

Yah, the offer used to be $2k, now is up to $3k for thsoe submitting after 12 Feb. Guess they're keen for business.

RIP my 2.8% - should have locked for longer. RBA communications and all that.

To my very very limited knowledge of all things home loan and finance, this seems a decent deal. To start, I am sure I'm the devil - I own…

Hats off to the cooks ripping out 1,500 in 3 hours then!

So how is everyone reading the article. Is it 1,500 burgers at just the Tuggeranong location, or is it 1,500 spread amongst all Brodburger…

Yes and no. Saleyard prices have come back a pretty healthy margin for both sheep and cattle since the lows in Q3 2023. They were only at…

Its a Theseus' ship scenario. Technically you've "had the boots" for 23 years, but every part of them has been replaced multiple times over…

Auckland has Sydney/Melbourne prices to be sure, but pop to the regions or the south island and there can be really fair prices to be had…

Koala is the best I've ever slept on. But I did buy about 4 years ago. I heard - but never researched to verify - they changed production…

On the above, without divulging specifics, I am in a senior regulatory and policy role that oversights agricultural/food exports and to…

For what its worth, ham will be ~70% of the time sourced from the EU and about ~20% of the time from the USA.

So your first point about bacon/ham - it is not coming from China or shady grey markets. It is coming from the EU and a minority from the…

I'm one, and I'm on the other side of the fence. Every colleague of mine who owns RMs (lets face it, it is a conversation starter if you're…

RMs will last about 3 years before needing a re-soling. They offer a professional service where their workshops will refurbish them for…

Can I ask what in particular from their homewares you dislike? I actually am a massive fan of their homewares and general home appliances.…

You're describing the entire global supply chain, why flog on cotton specifically?

I found Merrell to be great for the first few months. Then the shoes/boots deteriorated rapidly. I'd never use Merrell again. Just my 2…

As others have said. Free is free, which is great. But unless you're going for an entry level position it creates more work than it saves.…

Completely disagree. I daily drive these, put about 8KM on them daily round trip to and from work. On year 3 of ownership. Probs could use…

It's already been said, but very good quality. The only thing I noticed, the quality 5 years ago was absolutely through the roof, but the…

Can only stock check on the Aldi website for 4 weeks after a Special Buy. This is >4 weeks so no longer tracking stock.

Nope, mine just went through 60 seconds ago. "Your order is confirmed" Although granted, I am doing postal instead of C&C

Pretty good price. For those wondering, these go for around $800 second hand, or closer to $1k if in perfect condition. So good value here.

Nothing to do with transport constraints. More to do with forward contracts and supply arrangements. Poultry is produced to exact…

This is true, but for context, the brining process is about flavour and shelf life/microbiological control, not about fleecing an extra 10…

Time and Tide have a great article showing real to life colours: https://timeandtidewatches.com/hands-on-seiko-prospex-black-series/ She is…

Also to add as an FYI, these units use Hardlex glass, not sapphire. Hardlex will scratch easier than sapphire, but it won't crack or…

Note, the Seiko Prospex JDM SNE541J is also priced very competitively on Starbuy at $294 and worth a look (down from $625)…
