Come & celebrate OzBargain's 18th birthday!

Meetup Details
Date and Time: Thursday, 21nd November 2024 6PM
Location: Subset 27
Address: EAT STREET, Ed Square Shopping Centre, 52 Soldiers Parade, Edmondson Park
Cap: 20

It's my first time organising but I wanted to perhaps include people living in the South West who may miss out on attending OzBargain birthday events of the last year due to it being too far. Or if you have been looking for a reason to visit this area, then hopefully this one's it!

Now that there's already a fixed date and location, and observing other events I'll be taking a fully refundable $10 deposit.

As this is a capped event, to confirm your spot to this meet-up, I will be taking a $10 fully refundable deposit via Beemit. This $10 deposit is fully refundable in cash if you show up to the meetup.

Deposit instructions

When making the transfer, in the “for what?” field, please write your OzBargain username. My beemit username is:

@suchanarse

Once you have paid your deposit, there is nothing else to do.

    Someone has messaged me saying that due to this location being a little too far from nearest station so whoopsie on my part.

    I'm open to suggestions to a different meetup place around this area, e.g. Ed Square

      As the poll options show Friday, lunch time I may be able to come. Ed Square is preferred as I'll come by public transport from Central station. Later I'll choose which one shall I attend as we can only attend to max 2 locations.

      Maybe better Saturday/Sunday lunch time. As long as the location can be reached by public transport and maybe a bit walking, I am fine with location change.

      • suchan on 10/10/2024 - 11:13

        thanks for your input.

        The date on the poll is the closing date, not the actual meetup date hence it's still TBA on the Title :)

        AFAIK, most meetups are organised on a weekdays but again depending on appetite could set it up. Wonder if I could set up multiple polls

        Not sure why you were negged tho.

  • suchan on 11/10/2024 - 22:32

    For now I'm putting down the 22nd November date as there are more events being organised and want to avoid doubling up :)

      As it will be at 6 pm, I won't be able to come. Hope more people will go there especially people around West and Southwest Sydney.

      Kelpie or Staffy ?

    • CyberMurning on 14/10/2024 - 12:11

      Bom or lonestar are my vote

      • suchan on 14/10/2024 - 17:44

        A few mates just told me that the BOM KBBQ was terrible and should be avoided at all costs.Thoughts?

        • CyberMurning on 14/10/2024 - 23:48

          Ok then you decide.

        • ChunkyToast on 15/10/2024 - 02:26

          I've been, I do not recommend the KBBQ at Ed Square, probably the worst one I've been to.

          Subset is really good (you will need to check if prices are within budget), the lonestar there is okay.

          • suchan on 20/10/2024 - 21:08

            @ChunkyToast: Thank you for your vote too!
            Apologies I've been super busy and didn't have chance to reply here or provide an update.

            Let's do it at Subset 27 then! :)
            Most of the prices are within budget, but I might move it to a weekday, i.e. Thursday, simply because of the Weekday Specials that are only available from Monday - Thursday. The most expensive of which is $29 which leaves you some room for dessert!

            https://www.subset27.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2024-…

            Thanks for the inputs!

          • tamerg on 07/11/2024 - 18:56

            @ChunkyToast: Thats a shame. I was hoping to try them one evening. What's so bad about the KBBQ place?

              • tamerg on 07/11/2024 - 19:01

                @CyberMurning: 4.3-stars out of 500 reviews looks pretty good. What am I missing?

                • CyberMurning on 08/11/2024 - 08:32

                  @tamerg: yeah not sure too but few members here not recommend,couple recent reviews said quality decline cost saving etc
                  anyway i have another buffet on the same week so i am okay
                  maybe one day i will try

      Nope thats against the rule.

      As @CyberMurning has mentioned, that is not allowed per the rule, so sadly they're out.

      • joshptyltd on 08/11/2024 - 06:53

        @suchan That's cool and totally reasonable. Looking forward to it.

      Edit: All good. Deleting the card and reading it worked.

    If I don't receive your deposit by Monday, I may need to cancel your registration to be fair to the others who have paid their deposits. PM me if you prefer to pay by Payid instead.

    Hey mate. I’m late to the party. Can I still come? Can you send me your PayID for the deposit if I can still come? Thanks.

    Hey ya'll,

    It's the day to celebrate OzBargain's 18th birthday thanks to @scotty for sponsoring our event.

    Looking forward to see you all there. The good news is that it appears that the Trains aren't going to be cancelled until around 2am Friday so this means that you can use public transport to get here and to get back home too after a full dinner.

    I'll try to be there by about 5.30 pm so if you're early feel free to come find me at the restaurant.
