Just from personal experience of why we stopped going to our local Indian place, was to do with portion sizes. I don't mind paying $21 if…

conan2000 commented on What Is Your Homeloan Interest Rate in 2025?
5.91% with Tiimely Home and about to drop to 5.66%. PPOR with offset.

They might get used to it, I definitely wouldn't. I find every refinance a pain, the cash backs never tempted me.

Yeah, I have two phones one with 60Hz the other 120Hz, but I am not convinced it's the refresh rate so much that makes it feel slow as the…

I'd actually not accept the offer of finishing earlier and still start the new job anyway, assuming OP is salaried, they will get paid for…

The NHS is nowhere near as good as it is made out to be. Very good for emergency, but that's about it.

ash47k on 50% off Single Grade Monofloral Australian Manuka Honey + $12 Delivery ($0 with $250 Order except WA) @ King Island Pure

The benefits of Manuka honey are really when it is raw. Heating it will reduce (or perhaps entirely eliminate) the benefits of the MGO. If…

conan2000 commented on Robotic Vacuum Vs Cordless Vacuum
Robo vac for sure. It takes care of 95% of what we need, and we very rarely need to do anything else. We have a cordless as well and it…

I've never seen any good deals in Duty Free other than alcohol or cigarettes (to be fair I have never looked at cigarettes). The limits on…

Last time I went to NZ most stuff was more expensive than here.

conan2000 commented on What’s The Most You’ve Paid for a Latte?
I've paid $7 once in Melbourne, that's with oat milk, credit card and weekend/public holiday surcharge. Now that it's $5-6 for a medium I…

conan2000 commented on Home Insurance Goes up 50%
Ours jumped significantly and I even found a few insurers who wouldn't cover it. Seems like a few of them thought we were in a flood zone,…

conan2000 commented on How to Buy House in Sydney?
Just be very cautious of how much you borrow. My partner and I always budgeted that we can still afford the mortgage and to live off the…

For a new build there is also a maintenance period of 3 months where you report any defects and they will come back and sort them +…

I've only ever seen that offer in-store.

That end of the CBD is almost entirely offices with no retail outlets, so lots of them close over the weekend.

The Costco paneer is great, it holds together much better than those you can find in the big supermarkets.

Chicken breast isn't as good to dunk in my coffee though :)

They are quite regularly half price at Chemist Warehouse as well, and can usually combine with their multi-buy discounts. They are on sale…

No problems at all, the only thing we did was replace the seat as it was very uncomfortable. I bought the runout stock of the previous…

I have a NordicTrack S22i Studio Bike which is about 2-3 years old. I picked it over the Peloton because of the larger number of outdoor…

Also bare in mind it is better to have money in your pocket now than in several years time where the value of a $ is less (due to…

At that sort of price it won't be a basic plan either. Can drop the level of coverage and save a fair bit I expect, for anything critical…

Same option with Woolworths Mobile. Put one thing mobile/insurance in own name and one in the wife's and you can do it twice per month.

Depends on height and build what is lean. I have always been a bigger/more athletic build, but if I get as low as 77Kg I'd be very lean.…

Bulk protein just adds a lot of calories, you can definitely put on weight by moving to these/mass gainer ones, but if you're not adding…

It's better than doing nothing for sure, but you're not going to build much without tracking a progressive overload of any exercises you…

Yep, adjustable dumbbells are a great investment and save a lot of space. I went a while with just those and added a bench later down the…

I end up doing this once every few nights. If I go to bed after my partner and she is snoring loudly I just use our spare room that night.
