Martyroz on Vornado Air Circulator 533DC Energy Smart Small Air Circulator, White $183.20 Shipped @ Amazon AU

Have had the previous version (MR-WX743C) for several years now and we love it. Heaps of room and the ice maker hasn't missed a beat.

Omarko on 20x Everyday Rewards Points on Apple Gift Cards | ½ Price: Zooper Dooper $3.50, Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream $7.25 @ Woolworths

What @Omarko said 100%. The market power of the duopoly is what controls prices more than anything in Australia. They're an unofficial /…

Agret on Trade in a Mobile and Receive $500 JB Coupon to Redeem on a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 @ JB Hi-Fi

Surface Pro 5 $20? I literally just sold a good condition one with spare charger for $800 on FB. $20 seems a bit rude.
