branners commented on [Refurb, eBay Plus] Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones (Black) $274.64 Delivered @ Sony eBay
Is it just me or does Sony have the dumbest policy in the world when it comes to naming its products? How the heck can anyone remember…

branners commented on Any More Google Pixel Sales Coming up?
It does seem a little odd to me that the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro have feature in good deals from the likes of Telstra and TGG but not JB Hifi –…

ShouldIBuyIt on 11-Day China Tour $888 Per Person Twin Share from Sydney/Melbourne ($550 Single Person Supplement) @ AVG Travels

I used Sims Direct (now Simify) and on my non-eSIM phone, a $20 Felix roaming plan. Both were easy to use and worked well in China

CodeXD on 11-Day China Tour $888 Per Person Twin Share from Sydney/Melbourne ($550 Single Person Supplement) @ AVG Travels

My understanding is that the guides work across differently branded tours. When we were there our Beijing guide had a Wendy Wu tour next;…

I did the 10-day version of this trip, on TripADeal, on March 2024. It was great and my wife and I are considering how and when we will go…

Just missed the last stock at Chirnside Park (Melb). Whoever got it, well played!

branners posted a forum topic Will The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Become an OzBargain Bargain?
I am wondering what are the thoughts of my fellow OzBers about Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge. The media reviews of the big-but-thin handset…

From tomorrow's Coles dogalogue, Optus $350 Prepaid SIM starter kit is $199. Looks like 300GB of data for 365 days, have to check on eSIM…

Sorry, I got to 'ELAINE:' and blacked out. JL-D always has that effect on me

Mrs B and I had a similar deal. She was told that she needed two crowns, me one, looked like an expensive situation. We had intended to go…

Buyingcrap on Google Pixel 8a 128GB - $5/Month for 36 Months with a SIM Plan from 50GB/Month $55/Month (Minimum Cost $781.30) @ Optus

Yes, that would be okay for heavy data users but if you use far less, it would make sense to go with the Amaysim $499 and the $165/140GB…

branners posted a deal Google Pixel 8a 128GB $499 Delivered (New Customer Must Add Plan from $30/28-Day) @ amaysim

So what is this exactly? News Ltd's sports coverage minus Kayo?

The TripADeal (and others) bargain priced trips to China can shed some light on these sorts of things. On the tour we did last year one of…

Seems like a good deal. I was in a phone shop in Vietnam yesterday and they had the same handset for 17.9m vnd, about $1100. Not sure how…

branners commented on 6 Months of Binge (Basic) Subscription Included with Your Kayo Subscription (New or Returning Binge Customers Only) @ Hubbl
Not unusual for Hubbl to offer deals on its packages, it helps to get the numbers up for the company's EOFY reporting
