I ordered at 12:17pm today, and got an email at 5:10pm saying they don't have enough and asking me to cancel the order.

I used to think so too. But if you have 5 people in the car, and are only going for a few days, then airport parking becomes competitive.…

Honest question: what does this do that the $39 Kmart equivalent doesn't? (I'm in the market.)

Looks like one for Choicecheapies.co.nz.

$10.50 would still be a pretty good deal.

The one in this listing is 2000W.

Just tried to order and it said out of stock. Now saying "contact us for price". Looks like the show is over.

About 1.5m wide, and about 2m tall/long. I also got 4 of them - dual roller blinds on two windows. All working off one RF remote or via the…

> Says it's 435mm wide. I'd recommend double-checking your measurements if you're ordering a new blind. :-)

I think I have this exact one. Installed roller blinds in a stairwell where chains were awkward. I love them. They're set up through the…

Just the look of it makes me think it's a Wolfbox MF50 clone. I recently bought an MF50 for ~$42. If Wolfbox is the genuine one, the price…

Are the filters washable? You have to assume you won't be able to get replacement filters at some point in the future.

320 ANSI lumens for $42 is too hard to believe.

I need 2 new tyres. $470 through Tyroola. $338 at a discount tyre place. Even with 15% off their price, it's not worth the stuffing around.

Snow clean, blow leaves, car clean, blow fire, PC clean.

I already have one of these and love it. Would any openwrt router work well as an AP (e.g. a $50 ASUS wifi6 2nd hand), or do I need to buy…

Common. I have two because my original one doesn't hold a charge. FYI, you can buy USB-Remington cables on the internet, so you could run…

My Miband lasts about a month.

I got something similar years ago from IKEA. Been using them for electronics, as cheap jiffy boxes.

I have a bbq with flat plate and grill. What would I use this for? I'm not sure the drain pipe will let it sit on my barbeque.

Yeah, "in series". Two 3.7V batteries in series provide 7.2V, with capacity of 3000mAh. Two 3.7V batteries in parallel provide 3.7V, with…

But it won't bounce, right? It's just a ball of foam?

I had that issue. After trying heaps of things, I went to the deal page in the Westfield app, and there was a link for if you've already…

I see what you did there.

Heading suggests Spotify costs $36/year. Needs an edit.

Download a CAM version of the new Superman movie, run it through this, voila! Bluray rip.

Please explain further? You wouldn't get voltage drop across a fuse. Don't you need an ammeter to find the current?

I'm not a sparky, but wouldn't hooking up a light globe to the circuit negate the need for the tester?

I just went to Kmart and bought 4 forks ($2.50) and a toothbrush container ($1). It's a tight fit to fit one fork in the $1 container, I…

Max TDP 35W on the 3550H. Does that throttle to a smaller number under normal conditions? By comparison, N150 is 6W.
