Hooray, Ozbargain is turning 18th!!

And to celebrate, Scotty and the OzBargain team is shouting us lunch.

I've ran previous OzBargain birthdays at Mac Daddy's and have found it a good spot for food and socialising, so I'm planning to run it there again. I've penned in Sunday the 10th of November at 6PM for now. There will be a soft cap of 20 people that I may raise if there's enough interest. This year, OzB have generously provided $45 per person so you can basically buy any 16 inch pizza in their range with some change left over. Have a look at the menu here.

Update 10/11/24

Sorry I haven't had the chance to update this post as frequently as I'd like.

That said, see you guys tonight :)
Bring a smile, an appetite and a story about your best bargain of the year!

    @Michael15286
    I notice under "List of Events" this "Mount Lawley Meetup" is posted under Queensland ???

    • Moderatorneil on 20/10/2024 - 11:06

      Event was listed under QLD in events tab. Should be fixed up now and show correctly shortly on the main post.

    Registered, thanks!

  • mducpham on 21/10/2024 - 00:29

    bottomless pizzas, bottomless non-alcoholic drinks, sweet, count me in!

  • ozwolf on 21/10/2024 - 00:32

    Many thanks for organising, Michael. I wanted to attend the party you organised last year, but was not free that day. Looking forward to it this year. I have already registered earlier today.

    Looks like the cap will need to increase because I really want to come

  • Ramrunner on 24/10/2024 - 18:52

    Wow can't come to the first Saturday event as it clashes, and missed this one with 10 now on the waiting list (Didn't get a notification and didn't see it when I looked last week????).

    Having been to the events the last two years, is it just popularity or is the cap lower?

    Shame - it's a good time - have fun those who are going. I think Callum also wanted to come again :(

      Hey, due to the high interest I might actually seperate this into two events, one for all you can eat and one for normal. Stay tuned

      • Ramrunner on 24/10/2024 - 19:08

        Thanks Michael, I've texted Callum to put himself on the waiting list so you know total numbers as well.

        I've got notifications on in this event thread so will stay tuned as you say.

        All the best and thanks for organising regardless.

  • hiddenaudacity on 24/10/2024 - 19:22

    Hi! Can I please go on the waitlist? I just created an account to join, but now it says I'm too new to register! (I've been a silent oz bargainer on the mailing list for years)

  • angywoo on 28/10/2024 - 19:43

    Any updates?

    • Mixhael on 31/10/2024 - 16:04

      I'm planning on making a second event for the AYCE people. Just haven't gotten around to talking to the restaurant yet.

  • PoojaOhri on 07/11/2024 - 01:19

    Hi @Michael15286,

    Thanks for organising event. Unfortunately I was late to book for the event. Was wondering as we have nearly 30 people on wait list, any chance you planning for another event?

    • kerfuffle on 07/11/2024 - 09:13
      +2

      Even so, you'd be bottom of the list since you didn't bother going to the event you registered for last year.

  • stephjess3 on 07/11/2024 - 12:54

    Michael I have just registered on the wait list , how soon would we know ( if myself and young daughter can attend). Thanks Maria

    Ok guys, we're 2 days out from the Ozbargain birthday! I would like to remind everyone to please unregister if you can't make it so people on the waitlist can attend.

    I was intending to make an all you can eat event but my last couple of weeks have been busier than expected.

    That said, if there is still interest after Sunday, I will run another event later in the month exclusively for those who have not attended any event.

    • Ramrunner on 08/11/2024 - 16:58

      I WOULD be interested in another event depending on date of course and so would Cal, so our two names would be on that list, as long as we can join it quick enough of course this one was full really quick :)

      • Mixhael on 08/11/2024 - 17:16
        +2

        Thats ok, I'll make sure anyone who registered here has priority :)
        As long as there's at least 10 people interested, I'll run it. Probably will keep the 20 cap though.

        As for dates I was thinking 30th of November, Saturday evening) or 24th of November (Sunday afternoon/eve).

        • Ramrunner on 08/11/2024 - 17:29

          We have an F1 watch day on Sunday we're supposed to be at (Vegas at 2pm) in the calendar, but don't let that influence your decision for others LoL

        • LlamaKarma on 08/11/2024 - 17:42

          Thanks for offering to host a 2nd! I'm good for either date/time!

  • Ozbargainasaurus on 09/11/2024 - 01:16

    Ok. I'm gonna lay it on the line. I'm excited

    • cevad on 10/11/2024 - 11:08

      enjoy - please take some photos of the pizza so I can drool over my phone while eating the food at Optus Stadium lol

  • cevad on 10/11/2024 - 10:51

    I've put myself down on the wait-list to go onto the list if there's a second one organised. I've never made it to a OzB Mack Daddy event. Date wise, the 24th would be out for me, as that's Day 3 of the Aus v India test and I want to maximise my use of my WACA membership (going to Day 1-4). I can do 30th though. But like Ramrunner, don't let that influence your decision (unless you are also a cricket fan :) )

    • Charlie Dont Surf on 10/11/2024 - 11:12

      Beaufort St isn't very far from Optus Stadium - I think it could be easy to make a 6pm meet with the cricket scheduled to finish at 5.20pm. But, yes, it's a long day out.

      • Mixhael on 10/11/2024 - 11:16
        +2

        I think it'll be on the 30th then. A nice cap to the end of November!

        • Charlie Dont Surf on 10/11/2024 - 11:33

          I'm going to be overseas on both of the dates in late-November. But it's good to see so many people getting involved. Enjoy.

        • angywoo on 10/11/2024 - 13:26

          can you tag me?

  • angywoo on 10/11/2024 - 13:26

    anyone not going today?

  • ilostnemo on 10/11/2024 - 16:36

    Which option are we going for tonight?

    Bottomless?

    • Charlie Dont Surf on 10/11/2024 - 17:03

      Well, if I had been going, I'd have worn pants.

    • Mixhael on 10/11/2024 - 17:13

      Sorry, I should have clarified in the post that we're going for the menu only.
      The restaurant preferred it if the whole group went bottomless and I didn't have the time needed contact everyone and collect deposits
