The Captain commented on [Backorder] Talisker 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml $70 Delivered @ Amazon AU
One of my favourites. Excellent price!

Yep. Just answered an email survey and they contacted me with the offer.

I’ve got one - was lucky enough to snag a unit from Dyson in exchange for an honest review. In general, I’m pretty happy with the…

The Captain commented on [Prime] Garmin Varia RTL515 Cycling Rearview Radar with Tail Light - $212.68 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU
Best price I’ve seen! Never ride without it.

The Captain commented on [Prime] Dyson Gen5detect Absolute Cordless Vacuum Cleaner $878.75 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Very cheap! Think it is the all time low. Got one and very happy with it.

The Captain commented on Sony XR65X90K - 65" X90K BRAVIA XR Full Array LED 4K UHD HDR (Google TV) $1399 Delivered @ Sony eBay
It’s insane to think that this is cheaper than a bog standard iPhone!

avinit86 on [Windows, macOS, iPadOS] Free 6 Months Trial: Affinity Designer 2, Affinity Photo 2 & Affinity Publisher 2 @ Serif

If you’ve got a Mac / iPad / iPhone give Photomator a try. Doesn’t have advanced editing tools, but for photo touch ups it is pretty…

Anyone have any experience using Virgin Insurance for cars?

The Captain commented on 10% off Apple Mac (MacBook Air 13" with M3 Chip, 10-Core GPU, 512GB/16GB $2159, Was $2399) + Delivery (C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi
Good find! Blows me away that this is cheaper than an iPhone of similar specs! Really is a “what the market can bear” pricing approach…

This review here gives a great overview. Mostly construction and superior non stick properties once seasoned.…

Yep this is the right one https://amzn.asia/d/eeb38Ha

I went down a wok shaped rabbit hole in search of my next wok. After lots of reviews, I settled on the Yosukata flat bottomed wok. I am…

The Captain commented on [Prime] 8BitDo Micro Bluetooth Controller: Blue $28.85 (OOS), Green $29.01 Delivered @ 8BitDo Official Store AU via Amazon AU
Looks good. Has anyone successfully set this up and used it with an iPhone? The website doesn’t list it as iOS compatible.

pizzaguy on Vanish Gold Stain Remover (Pack of 6) $28.50 ($25.65 S&S) + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU

I reckon the Missus goes through about a bottle every 2 weeks!

daydream on Garmin Vivoactive 5 Smartwatch $392.57 (Was $499) Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU

Yep you’ll have to pony up $750 for the Venu 3.

The Captain commented on Corsair Gaming Mouse Pad Extended (93 x 30 cm) $27.95 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU
🤔What sort of liquid accidents are people having at their computer that they need this beast?

The Captain commented on Renpho Digital Food Scale $26.24 (Was $34.99) + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Renpho via Amazon AU
I’ve got this scale. Has it for 12 months. Pretty good overall but not rechargeable batteries. App is pretty crappy. Just use it as a…

windCheater on Garmin Epix (Gen 2) Carbon Gray DLC Titanium $799, Garmin Fenix 7X $836 Delivered @ Amazon AU & Germany

That version doesn’t have the Sapphire screen, and has only half of the storage (16 vs 32GB IIRC). And in my opinion, it isn’t as sweet…

Ash-Say on [Refurb] 20% off Eligible Items, 22% off for eBay Plus Members (Max $300 Discount) @ eBay

Not sure if you’ve seen. They have changed the T and Cs on the fuel lock limiting the maximum price delta they will pay. 20c from memory…

Hmmm, probably TOO cheap for my liking. Wonder how much / quality of protection circuitry is included. Last thing I want to do is blow the…

The Captain commented on Ken Hom Classic Wok 10-Piece Set - $49.99 Delivered @ Costco Online (Membership Required)
After a lot of research I ended up getting the Yosukata black carbon wok from Amazon. Absolutely love it. Not cheap, but after correct…

Did you enjoy the build?

The Captain commented on ME Bank Home Loan Refinance Cashback: $2000 on Minimum $400,000 Loan, $3000 on Minimum $700,000 Loan, LVR up to 80%
I moved to ME Bank recently for a similar promotion. Their online banking and apps are definitely bare bones. It's like online banking with…

The Captain commented on [Android, iOS] Wreckfest $1.49 (Was $13.49) @ Apple App Store & Google Play Store
I have it on an M1 iPad Pro. Plays unreal. Absolute no brainer at this price!

The Captain commented on [Prime] The Good, The Bad And The Ugly 4K $27.28 Delivered @ Amazon US via AU
Is there really any benefit to a “4K” version of classic movies like this?

The Captain commented on Arrosto 12" Portable Gas Pizza Oven $299 + $24.95 Delivery (Free Click & Collect) @ Barbecues Galore
I’ve got one. It’s very good for the price. Biggest challenge is that the heat is all from the back - so you need to rotate the pizza…

Hi coffee sounds nice. Can you confirm if it’s freshly roasted?

The Captain commented on 8BitDo Pro 2 Bluetooth Gamepad (G Classic Edition) $59 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $39 Spend) @ Amazon AU
