Heya all - Hope everyone is doing welllll

I'll be back again with another event in North West Melb in celebration of the 18th Ozbargain bday event.

Date: Friday 22nd November 2024
Time: 6:00pm
Location: Pacinos Italian Family Restaurant
Capacity: 20 People
Cost: Scotty has advised that the budget is $45 but I'm sure we can hit the $35 mark and possibly get a cake instead if you guys want.

I'm gonna see if I can get some sponsorships going, but so far its been gone to other events haha.

Looking forward to seeing you guys again!

EDIT: This is now at La Tortilleria and have updated the details in the description! Looking forward to seeing you all there.

EDIT 2: They only offer set menu for large groups so have moved it to Pacinos. Catch yall then! also lmk if you can't make it the day before or asap so I can update the booking and not get slugged with cancellation fees

    Look forward to catching again dude. Laksa king last year was great.

    In Flemington we’ve enjoyed Pacinos near the show grounds before. Good food.

      likewise and glad you enjoyed the event!

      that looks like such an amazing place and could change it there.

        La Tortilleria is also an awesome place, authentic Mexican, haven’t been in a long time but the one time I went it was good.

  • RoadZilla on 14/10/2024 - 10:49

    How do I register for this one mate?

    • cerealsmok3r on 14/10/2024 - 11:12

      There should an event registration section and you just click attending.

      I've also added a poll there and hope that helps.

        Done. registered.

    a budget of $45 pp? That is quite generous

    • cerealsmok3r on 14/10/2024 - 21:18

      haha agreed. I thought it would stay $35 or at least go up to 40 but 45 seems way too generous

      • arcticmonkey on 22/10/2024 - 18:06

        Pacinos isn't cheap. Can easily blow that on a Parma and a drink.

    • PlasmaCatcher on 22/10/2024 - 18:05

      no cake, prefer to order gelato or ice cream from Pacinos

      • cerealsmok3r on 22/10/2024 - 22:36

        sure if we have the budget within our respective spend then by all means go for it!

  • smarter_fool on 21/10/2024 - 10:17

    Aaagh…why I was not paying attention. Registered but on waiting list :(

  • Melburnian on 01/11/2024 - 14:06

    I'm cancelling my registration as I realised that I would be quite late getting there after work, so hopefully someone on the waitlist can go instead.

      That slot went to me (I was 1st on the waitlist). Thanks mate.

    Looking forward to it!

    Looking forward to this - are you taking any deposits and/or providing any confirmation of registration?

    • smarter_fool on 19/11/2024 - 10:27

      I was also wondering what happens to the waitlist. Do we have a final roll call or something to ensure that people who have registered turn up

      • fullmetal on 19/11/2024 - 15:42

        Can't make it to the meet up. Hopefully someone in the wait-list can take my place.

    • cerealsmok3r on 20/11/2024 - 15:02

      nope but thanks for the reminder ill ask everyone to double check if they are attending

  • inasero on 20/11/2024 - 12:09

    Could I possibly put in my vote for no cake (happy for whole budget to go towards mains)

    Hey all 2 days left until the our lil celebration celebration takes places at Pacinos! If you are unable to make it, please cancel your registration so that those on the waitlist can attend the event and this is to ensure that all spots are taken. If you aren't able to, feel free to dm me and I can take you off the list.

    I've just gotten shirts from Scotty which is more than enough for this event. This will be on a first come first serve basis except for those that have already told me their sizes (can't remember if its this event of the NSW one).

    I will also try and call the place sometime tomorrow and see if we can increase the cap to the total amount so that no-one misses out but will keep everyone posted (:

    • BOC14 on 21/11/2024 - 06:17

      Looking forward to it, thanks for organising.

      I'd be a large shirt please 🙂

      Hopefully Pacinos has good air con!

    • smarter_fool on 21/11/2024 - 07:00

      Looking forward to catching up with fellow bargain hunters. I will be a large Tshirt too 😀.

    • PlasmaCatcher on 21/11/2024 - 11:27

    Thank you! Im a small size for the t-shirt. Also would like to put my vote for no cake.

  • JChu on 22/11/2024 - 12:38

    Been in the waiting list the whole time now in 😄

    Assume there's no deposit for this?

    • cerealsmok3r on 22/11/2024 - 15:34

      Yeah just come and no deposit. Too much effort for me (:

    Hey all it’s on tonight in just under three hours! Just a heads up that I’ve called and they’re able to extend it to 25 peeps so everyone is welcome to come! See you all there.

    Edit: I only have 25 shirts but 3 will be going to the other event organisers.

    • JChu on 22/11/2024 - 16:08

      Would love a medium if available. Thanks!

    Hopefully we can do it again soon!

    Thanks for organising the meet up. Especially since it was close to Coles Flemington. Scored us 500gm of pork sausages for $1.87! We never stop bargain hunting lol.

    Thanks @cerealsmoker and @scotty for organising this catchup. It was great meeting fellow bargain hunters and sharing stats (:-). This was my first meet up and hopefully a beginning of many more to come.

      If you all had scotty masks that group photo would have been so much better.
