tenpercent on If Amazon Delivered to Your Neighbour and They Kept It - What Would You Do? Please Discuss

mauricem commented on BWS: 20% Upsized Cashback (Capped at $25 Per Member, Exclusions Apply) @ Cashrewards
Non alc beers are included FWIW. 20% off at BWS usually = about 5% less than Dans so worth it for me as nearest dans is out of my way

Is the below excerpt from MG's warranty a standard exclusion? "slight oozing of oil or the like about packing and/or oil seals" While its…

The longer you leave it the lower chance of a reversal being successful

Ozzster on MSI Modern 14 14" FHD 60hz Laptop (Intel Core i7-1355U, 512GB) $899 + Delivery ($0 C&C / In-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

Battery, screen, gpu and ram are more likely to fall than cpu especially an intel.

Decent saving buying offshore, have you had experience importing and if GST will apply?

TightTerry on 60% off All 1kg Coffee $24.80/kg + Shipping @ Inglewood Coffee Roasters

Lasts longer in vac seal bags. Beans definitely age in the freezer, but well sealed 2 -3 months seems to have minimal impact.
