jace88 on Google Nest Mini 2nd Gen $14 (OOS), Google Nest Doorbell $72 (OOS), Ring Stick Up Cam 2-Pack $74 Delivered @ Optus

Really just that. Something that’s a bit more reliable than Siri and plays Spotify off voice commands without fuss.

Awesome! $14 delivered for a Nest Mini! Finance was asking for a HomePod mini last night, but the Nest might have to do!

spaceflight on Eureka Mignon Silenzio Coffee Grinder with Bonus Eureka Tamper & Eureka Leveler $599 Delivered @ Coffeeteca

I bought my Specialita from there a couple of years back. Best decision I’ve made. Due to the simplicity of a grinder there’s unlikely…

MOMEHT on Eureka Mignon Silenzio Coffee Grinder with Bonus Eureka Tamper & Eureka Leveler $599 Delivered @ Coffeeteca

That kit looks really nice but how can they justify nearly $200 for it

Think I got one for around $170 about a decade ago. Still works great and my go-to for travel. Love the way it expands and compacts if I…

BDB will make as good of coffee as anything in the 2-3k price range. And because we live in Aus, we get them extremely cheap. Hence the…

I tried the latte and it was disgusting. Could barely get through the can.

I got a similar model cuckoo for about $150 and I love it. Never had a single bad batch of rice, and it looks and works as well as day one.

sizzly348 on Bose QuietComfort SC Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones $249.95 Delivered @ Bose

Same happens with the ultras. As soon as they start tearing I get Bose support to send me a new free pair. With a Bose price-tag, they can…

punkel on Bose QuietComfort SC Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones $249.95 Delivered @ Bose

I’ve had both and recommend the SCs due to controls alone. The ultra controls are infuriating.

Feels like I’m hearing of a new subscription service every day I’m holding myself to a maximum of three at one time.

Filtered water for a shower is ridiculous. That, and having to buy filters for it. What a waste of money and unnecessary waste.

Reticent commented on Wanderer St Kilda Beach Shelter $59.00 (Was $69.00, Orig. $189.99) + Delivery ($0 with $100 Spend / Click & Collect) @ Macpac
I’ve had one of these for a while and it seems good quality. I love how quickly it is to set up and put away.

I got mine a few years ago and reach for it several times a week. Really great quality and nicely designed.. but the price in Australia is…

AngryAlfred on Ozito PXC 18V 5.2Ah Cordless Ultra Battery And Charger Pack PXBC-520 $99 Delivered / C&C / in-Store @ Bunnings

Ooh, good to know. I think I have a standard fast charger.

Reticent commented on Ozito PXC 18V 5.2Ah Cordless Ultra Battery And Charger Pack PXBC-520 $99 Delivered / C&C / in-Store @ Bunnings
Keen on a better battery, but this would be the third charger I’d have.. just feels so wasteful.

I’ve got one like it. They work really well, and I’m surprised they’re not standard by now.

100%. Reminds me of a Ferrero Rocher box. Pretty much the only let down.

I’ve had mine for years and I love it. Built like a tank and works really nicely.

OzBrogains on Eureka Mignon Specialita 55 Black w/ Black Front €313.20 Delivered (~A$505) @ Espresso Coffee Shop

I grabbed a larger dial 3D printed accessory (look it up) off Etsy, and it’s now much better.

Mine is a 2012 model that’s done about 10,000 shots. No major repairs needed.

Jimothy Wongingtons on YouTube Premium - Overseas Payment Method Crackdown Discussion Megathread

Not dissing your own financial choice, but $33 per month seems crazy steep. That’s like $400 a year.

I really wanted this, but I can’t justify yet another subscription. $50 a year adds up overtime.
