AustriaBargain on How to Save Some Money on Apple Products? (Negotiation Strategy Suggestions)

Yep, limit what a person can do and they shouldn't have any trouble.

SlickMick commented on Gumtree Buyer Asking for Refund - Bar Fridge
You need to also consider that the fridge might be fine and the buyer to trying so scam some $$ back. If you want to clear your conscience…

I think they've run out of new games

You ignored the lowest interest rates anyone will ever see, to protect your perfect credit score?? Did you not notice the explanation just…

yeah but you concocted a different scenario. Like I said, in 3 of my 4 examples, and quite possiblly the OPs, they didn't have an option…

At least if they have a seat, they have a 7kg allowance :)

So only 5.5% for cheeseburger and 5.3% for big mac. You've just made me realise that Maccas is still cheap food. (I thought that was no…

I was going to call BS, but maybe not as far off as I thought. That would be 15% pa growth. We bought at the bottom after a boom, and have…

Almost all of your stats can be atrributed to high immigration. You can't see any negatives?

She may not have had an opportunity to walk away, like 3 of the 4 examples I provided. In any case, a fleeing victim is still a victim.

No, we don't blame victims. Of the people I mentioned, 1 managed to leave and get a new job and career took off - but it only happened…

I love drive holidays where I can bring anything I like in the car, instead of playing the game "what 7kg of stuff do I need to survive for…

Benoffie on Is Anyone Else Sickened by The Lack of Government Action on Waste and Recycling?

I was just in Adelaide, and one local council seems to think they've nailed the landfill problem: a tiny bin for general waste collected…

7ekn00 on Is Anyone Else Sickened by The Lack of Government Action on Waste and Recycling?

I agree that this should solve the problem, but I suspect there will be costs involved

SlickMick commented on Issue with Customer and 'tiler' with Renovation
We had a similar experience getting a friend to do a job for us. It was going to be good experience for him in line with course he was…

anonymous_coward on Advice on New Desktop PC - Home User Working with Graphics (Budget Up to $2,500)

I was going to say same as @GordonD. Your specs seem fine for what you're doing. I suspect a clean refresh and you'll be good as new.

When my daughter went to school, my wife was involved with the school (reading with students, working at tuck shop etc), and went on school…

They would do better to accredit the controls the organisation has in place, rather than individuals. Several places I have worked now have…

It would be interesting to know what % of Catholics are athiests. I've heard of multiple priests that don't believe. I doubt many would for…

onegpt on Piksters SupaGRIP Eco Floss Picks (Pack of 100) $4.80 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU

not as convenient. My wife put mine away becuase I wasn't using it much, so now it's not used at all. If getting a water pic, I suggest the…

Trishool on Piksters SupaGRIP Eco Floss Picks (Pack of 100) $4.80 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU

I use one until someone throws it out and forces me to replace it.

I'd say $12,500 is a cheap price for a valuable lesson learned. It could have been an expensive car with a boot load of fine crystal.

With the only quote being $12,500, what is court going to deem the market rate? Sounds like a great plan to spend $12,500 + court costs.…

How so? I find credit card applications a pain, I've just gone through the grief for the first time in decades, and hope to never need to…

Duckie2hh on Neighbour Using Lift Landing Area as a Waiting Room for His Practice

OP is a tenant. I think they need to complain through agent and have landlord take it up with body corp.

Jimothy Wongingtons on Petition for ALDI to Sell Alcohol in QLD (Only Open to QLD Residents)

If they got 2M signatures, I'd feel the need for a petition against this petition, just so everyone knows they're still in minority.

Seriously, when I have significant dental work to do, I go to Thailand or Bali. Have a holiday with my wife, get the treatment done, and…

Medicare costs too much without adding more to it.
