BatmanAU on [VIC] 6.6kW Solar Package from $2500 (Includes $200 Deposit) / [NSW, QLD, SA] from $2781 after STC @ eConnex

Not completely. 6.6kW is really 5kW usable in the best case scenario. Less, once you factor in fridge and other things. Even single phase…

donman92 on Intex Challenger Kayak K1 (1 Person) $70 (RRP $142.59) Delivered @ Amazon AU

100kg will cover the vast majority of women and most men. The height cutoff for 100kg to not be considered overweight is apparently 173cm.

Do you reply to all comments on the internet in this way? I'm so confused...

SydStrand commented on Watch for My 10yr Old - Budget $150
Baby G is a pretty easy recommend. Lots of different colours, pretty bulletproof, horological credibility.

When I was a little girl in Panama a rich American came to our town and he was wearing the softest, most beautiful sweater and I said what…

SydStrand commented on Are There Any AMD RX 9070 XT GPU Deals in AU?
What a great dad of a friend, to help him look for such a specific, high-end, $1200 graphics card.

dudi on [NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, WA] The Golfer Membership Plan, $239.40/Year (40% off) + Bonus $100 Drummond Golf Voucher @ FutureGolf

There are beginner/introduction courses that usually run beginning of the year. It may be too late for you to sign up. You can look at…

Luckymaster on [NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, WA] The Golfer Membership Plan, $239.40/Year (40% off) + Bonus $100 Drummond Golf Voucher @ FutureGolf

If you don't live near a course, and that's a dealbreaker, then of course it's not a good deal for you. For me, I live within 30km of 6…

Hangryuman on Is There a Way to Book Business Class or First Class Tickets for Cheap?

Cope. Conspicuous consumption never disappeared. When I was in uni, one of the students' parents bought an apartment in the, wore an AP and…

fredblogs on Is There a Way to Book Business Class or First Class Tickets for Cheap?

Why? It's not a crime for them to use their money how they see fit. They might have different priorities with how they spend their money,…

SydStrand commented on What Happened to Classifieds?
It's like asking what happened to forums now that there's Reddit and Discord... Classifieds are good for selling OZB-specific things like…

Misread. Okay, OP is playing in a whole different league if they can splash on 3 units, even off the plan.

My first pair from 2004 is still around (have been re-soled twice), but I'm positive it was nowhere near as expensive back then (maybe even…

Sounds like OP is looking for a centrally-located property for uni and work commute. Only 4 bedroom house you'll find for a not-insane…

SydStrand commented on Opinions on Ozito Multi-Tool
It's fine for cutting out small, hard-to-reach things. Used it during a recent deck build but not too much else. Picked up on a similar…

SydStrand commented on Is Scouts South Australia Safe for Kids?
No more or less safe than any extracurricular activity. If you're fixated on the fear of paedos, don't enrol them in swim lessons, the…

clubhonda on Vitamix Explorian Series E310 High Performance Blender 1.4l White $492 Delivered @ Amazon AU

I have a Vitamix that I've used daily for the last 15 or so years (no, I didn't pay $492 for it) for smoothies, nut butter, and even soup.…

00 on Turn on Auto Membership Renewal in App at Membership Counter & Claim a $10 Costco Gift Card (Max 1 Claim Per Member) @ Costco

Is hating on Costco a badge of honour for OG Ozbargainers or something? Old mate has 44 comments in nearly 18 years and decided to blow one…

Tried. Was nice. But not worth $2700 when there are other decent ergonomic chairs around. The HM covid price inflation is wild. I bought my…

SydStrand commented on Recommend EV Charging Cable
Nearly $400 is expensive to trickle charge. While you can certainly make it work, I found it too slow and needed to plug in almost every…

I get what the OP is asking. For example, we don't have any 10c recyclable bottles or cans in our bins, because they're already put aside…

Ozpersonalshopper. Just find me the cheap flight on the bogan express during peak season.

Tollery on Kirkland Signature 7-Piece Golf Iron Set $599.98 (Was $849.99) In Store Only @ Costco (Membership Required)

All of Costco's stuff from food to sporting goods is branded Kirkland. That's like saying saying Anko = Kmart or Ozito = Bunnings. What…

Uh... yeah, is this a surprise?

SydStrand commented on Most Lightweight Sunscreen Recommendation
Biore Aqua Rich SPF50+ I didn't like applying sunscreen daily for years because it felt so thick and sticky on my face

The amount of ignorance in this thread is astounding. Vets don't get kickbacks for selling greenies or dental treats. It's not prescription…

No, it's not. More misinformation. Like any other dental treat like dentastix or even the off-brand ones, it's just a gummy and abrasive to…
