I thought they were identical until I did a side-by-side tasting. The Aldi ones are very close but not quite as good (but the diff is…

That website is faaaaabulous!
bloomer replied to RockyRaccoon on 1/2 Price Castello Marinated Greek Style Cheese in Oil with Garlic & Herbs 100g $1.90 @ Woolworths
There is very little robust evidence to support the idea that canola oil is problematic. The popularisation of that idea seems to come…

It's really important to apply it according to the instructions. I found it useful, but not miraculous. After about 18 months the effect on…
bloomer commented on IKEA MUTEBO Combi Steam Oven $1439 (RRP $1599) + Delivery (Free C&C) @ IKEA (Free Family Membership Required)
This looks like an updated version of the previous Kulinarisk top-priced model (I think there were two variants: steam or pyrolytic…
If you use flour slowly or have large amounts, storing it in sealed containers in a freezer is good too (if your freezer has space!).
But that's not quite true, @JimmyF. If the booking does not have assigned seats prior to the opening of online check-in and the flight has…
You didn't mention it, but I assume you tried to actually assign seats for yourself in the Qatar manage-booking interface?
bloomer commented on Website Hosting Recommendation?
I have been happy with Clickhost (https://clickhost.com.au/) and VentraIP (mentioned above). I did not have a good experience with Obble.
bloomer replied to alan737 on Free 2 Night Hotel Accommodation for Eligible Transit Passengers @ Etihad Airways
Given the massive fees associated with Etihad bookings using Velocity points, it wouldn't be a wise use of points.
bloomer replied to hotphil on Google Nest Protect Wired Smoke and CO Alarm $129 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Depends on the state, I believe.
bloomer replied to bamzero on Google Nest Protect Wired Smoke and CO Alarm $129 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Thanks for mentioning that. All the major retailers I had checked online only had a wired version, so I had assumed there was no battery…
It's such a pity they have to be wired. Recommendations for good battery-powered alternatives would be appreciated.
bloomer replied to nightelves on China Airlines Brisbane/Auckland Return Sale: Economy/Premium Economy Class Starts From $505/$888 (Hot Meal & Baggage incl.)
It's comfortable. Their Premium Economy has a hard shell seat so you recline within your own space. Leg rest rather than just foot rest.…
I don't watch the market, so I'm afraid I know nothing about constitutes a good deal, sorry. As for storage, I really think teaching…
bloomer commented on New MacBook? M2 Vs M3? Refurbished M1?
I have an M1 8/512 and the only thing that stresses it is running Firefox with a few hundred tabs (uhuh) at the same time as Window 11…
bloomer replied to jackary on China Airlines (Taiwan) Europe Return: Prague $1150, Rome $1155, Vienna $1167, Amsterdam $1205, London $1346 via Taipei @ IWTF
Oh I definitely wouldn't say they're fantastic. They just have a very reliable product with less unevenness between flights. I don't think…

I've flown them many times too. It's worth mentioning that it's still just the usual discomfort of average fairly tight seating etc, and…
bloomer replied to CyberMurning on Travel eSIM 30 Days 1GB Data Plan for US$1 (~A$1.50, Covers 50 Countries) @ Jetpac
Setting up, basically yes. Just don't turn it on
bloomer replied to epmonp6 on Travel eSIM 30 Days 1GB Data Plan for US$1 (~A$1.50, Covers 50 Countries) @ Jetpac
Yes, but not obvious, depending on where you are on their app.

I'm using this right now. Required manual setup for my location (had to manually select random operators until it started working with…

Is there the option of picking up orders at your Little Collins Street location? Only just noticed you've opened there!

I've been with Globird for elec, gas, and both, a number of times. The rates have gone up once within a short time, but at other times it…
bloomer replied to [Deactivated] on [VIC, NSW, QLD, SA] $88 Credit for Gas or Electricity for Referee When Switching @ Globird Energy
There's usually a cooling off period (all states?), and then it depends on meter reads and how quickly both providers act. I've flipped…
