recession1 commented on Samsonite Lite-Shock Sport 75cm Suitcase - $356 Delivered (RRP $915) @ Amazon AU
I have the cosmo lite in this size, which appears to be the older version of this bag. It’s taken 63 flights in the last 4 years like a…

recession1 commented on Bankwest Qantas World MasterCard: 80,000 Qantas Points within 7 Months (after $35,000 Spend in 5 Months), $320 Annual Fee
I can only imagine this being worthwhile if you were about to buy a car and had already churned through every other card available. That is…

And then the pain of using the gift cards to pay for stuff, unless you have something like a big tax bill to pay in one hit. Some people…

recession1 commented on The Economist Digital and Print 1 Year Subscription A$399.50 (50% off) @ The Economist
I love their content but I have no idea how anyone gets through a magazine every week. I cancelled after my 50% off year as I only read…

I’ve just churned to mate and they’re garbage. I’m getting 30/10 on a 100/20 plan. I had no issue at all with AGL on the last churn.…

I’d consider a $2k status run to get to platinum but there’s no way gold is worth that. Especially if you already have lounge access on…

recession1 replied to _tony on 28 Degrees Mastercard - $0 Monthly Fee for 12 Months (Normally $8 Per Month) @ Latitude Financial
Yeah I barely use mine and have nothing outstanding. I got the offer. No idea why they’d want to hold on to dormant cardholders though.

recession1 replied to SilentX on 28 Degrees Mastercard - $0 Monthly Fee for 12 Months (Normally $8 Per Month) @ Latitude Financial
Leave $5 on your balance at the end of the month and see if you get charged the insurance fee

Sounds like they’ve gone into damage control. There must have been thousands of cancellations.

I’m having exactly the same issue with my bellroy duffle bag. Other than that it’s a fantastic product.

recession1 commented on [Refurb] Sony WH-1000XM5 Noise Cancelling Headphones $330.65 ($322.87 eBay Plus) Delivered @ Sony eBay
Cracking deal. But I can’t justify with my $147 Boses.

recession1 commented on [Prime] Bose QuietComfort Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones (Cypress Green) $312.55 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Nothing over $200 qualifies as a deal on these after JB did them for $147.
