See if you can pay with discounted gift cards purchased from Coles/Woollies when they're running the points promotions.

Might actually replace my dying Synology NAS that keeps switching off. Have done the resistor mod but still pretty crap - lots of downtime.

eek commented on Anything under $300 Worth Buying before July?
Do you even need a receipt if you are $300 or less? If so, buy something from Officeworks. Return it on 1st July? :/

ViperAMD on Boost Mobile: $50 Cashback on 290GB Prepaid 12-Month SIM for $255 Delivered @ Cashrewards

Yeah it does say for new activations only. I'm sure the phone number will be the critical one if you're already with BOOST.

This is what's making me re-consider churning from Boost to this deal. Didn't have great experience with Voda coverage. $300 for 240gb over…

eek commented on When Do OzBargainers Stop Repairing Their Laptops?
Unless you have paid access to schematic diagrams and tools for micro-soldering, I'm not sure one can easily repair laptops these days? If…

No. If you did this to me I'd sign you up to many real estate/charity/insurance broker/real estate marketing subscriptions as possible.

But Albo said green energy was cheaper than natural gas, coal or nuclear. You'll see the evidence in your power bill. Oh wait.

This sounds very American. I watched someone heat up a mug of water with a teabag in it in the microwave to make tea. Seemed like a rather…

Damn, if I had a 12 year old that wanted a $55 haircut I'd tell them to go get a job at Foxconn assembling iPhones to pay for it. Mine get…

eek commented on How Much Do You Actually Need to Retire in Aus
I'd guess you'll have to back-calculate from what you think you'll need to spend in retirement...plus a lot of inflation depending on how…

Yeah, that's what I'm saying - I agree with you. With Labor's (Greens) ideology driven 'renewables only' mantra going forward Australia is…

Very likely, due to spending 13+ years on various iron ore, coal, bauxite and nickel mining projects. Moved onto LNG and a smelter…

In Australia? We don't. Send the ore off and import it all the products from overseas (China).
