slknv commented on Cheap getaways in the next few weeks
Vietnam? About $450 return from melbourne (use skyscanner for some flights) to HCMC. Decent (non backpacker) hotels from $40 inc breakfast,…
ANZ have the. worst. credit card application process. Took them 2 months to approve me - now I've got my signon points going to churn out.…
agreed google nest hubs are fantastic
Overpriced status symbol for emotionally fragile egos. And the cabin size rimowa weighs 4.3kg. Hard pass.
slknv commented on Alternator Reconditioning Cost for 05' Volvo S60?
I bought an aftermarket alternator for my CLK for $220, replaced it myself in about 30 minutes - just need to slip off the serpentine belt…

100% Japan over USA (except in summer when it's pretty damn uncomfortable). Just got back from the states and our poor exchange rate + USA…
slknv replied to richadam on Wallbox Home EV Charger + Installation: 7kW (Single Phase) $1900, 22kW (Three Phase) $2300 @ JET Charge
only for EVs that can accept 22kw (there's a few but not many), a model 3 will only charge at 11kW regardless
slknv commented on Myer Credit Card Converted to Macquarie. Only a Month Later Macquarie Increases Annual Fee, Reduces Points Value?
Half the points, increased fee? Just like everything else in life (insurance in particular) staying "loyal" means you're being ripped off.…
Well, that's pretty much how capitalism works.
slknv replied to JSONBourne on [Prime] Ottocast U2-Air Wireless Carplay Adapter 2024 Upgrade $78 (Was $119.95) Delivered @ CGAUTO via Amazon AU
Yes of course. No bueno :(. The carlinkit 2air is meant to have more open settings, so you can specificy an exact amount of time instead of…
slknv replied to JSONBourne on [Prime] Ottocast U2-Air Wireless Carplay Adapter 2024 Upgrade $78 (Was $119.95) Delivered @ CGAUTO via Amazon AU

slknv commented on Best Place to Buy Some JPY?
I've been loading up on my wise account, also going jan 2025. Great exchange rate rn!
Not bad! Might get one for the travel insurance, if i can put a super low limit on the card. No points earning ability but cant have it all.
Not "free" insurance. Gotta pay an annual fee for the credit card it's attached to.
Have a few extended family members who "invested" in massage chairs, insisting they'd use it daily and get great use out of it. Yep, after…
slknv replied to Circly on Anbernic RG35XX H Retro Handheld Gaming Console US$53.30 (~A$82.23) Delivered @ Anbernic Direct Store via AliExpress
Probably safer to go back to factory and have latest firmware - look up "retro game corps ps vita" for a guide

Flew Mel-HCMC-Mel in November 2023. Left on time, arrived on time. Food (purchased extra cost) wasn't great. Bargain price, we paid $550…
slknv replied to BOGOF on Hawaiian Airlines No Longer Offering 2x 32 kg Baggage Allowance between Australia and Hawaii
Agree. Hawaii has the most overpriced and underwhelming hotels in the world too.
Closed it today, was always going to be a churner card. Not worth keeping as there's plenty other cards with better benefits and points…
agreed - just had 2n/2d in LA and couldn't leave there fast enough.
Only date available is June 6 (for the china 10 day trip 50,000 points) , or am I doing it wrong?

Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI) is an industry lobby group with majority membership of inefficient ICE producing…
Thefork is dead in a month, barely 10 restaurants in Melbourne will accept your yums. Used to be a good website, now just glad to see it…
slknv commented on Free Access to 12 Locked Articles for 12 Weeks (12 Articles in Total) @ Herald Sun, Courier Mail, Daily Telegraph
Just get on reddit, murdoch "news" is just clickbait headlines and reddit posts. Newscorp is for morons.
SMH. You want to save a few bucks, after experiencing an "amazing" product for years of sound sleep? Good example of "the poor man pays…
slknv commented on ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Credit Card 100,000 Qantas Points & $250 Back with $5,000 Spend in First 3 Months, $425 Annual Fee
