Alan6984 commented on [Android, iOS] Free - The Enchanted Worlds 2 (Was $6.99) @ Apple App Store, Google Play Store

Alan6984 replied to Rubenite on L'Affare Mighty 200g Coffee Beans or Grounds $5.99 ($1.99 with Coupon) @ New World (North Island, Ends Feb 2)
It kind of beggars belief the way that these coupons are designed - they want you to print them, but make it as hard as possible for the...

Nearly all the electronic coupons say something like 'original only - no copies', but I have never had any issue with a printed copy at the...

Nice test! As you say, it would be interesting to know whether it was a time based thing, or a price change thing.

It's completely up to you - same as any other agreement between two consenting private parties. You could go to market, and offer any of...

I agree - the button you press (accepting you likely have to choose the one your card provider tells you to use) will determine the type of...

I've never had any issue with more than four - just the discount was limited to that number. I have always checked they are okay with it...

Ahhh... I got that message too, but figured it was a scam.

No idea about the through-wall thing - would be interested to know what they say about that.

Same experience with 2Degrees (on behalf of a client) late last year - the wait times were ridiculous.

Alan6984 replied to ace310 on Need Suggestions/Idea to Move Router & All Cables out of The ONT Cabinet
If there is power for the ONT, I think you can just plug an extension / multi-way into that, and run out to the mount rack - no sparky...

Based on the above - that is correct. You have to use the link provided if you want the extra $10 (and don't value the other items).

I don't know what the cheapest is currently, but my target price is $0.13 per tablet. If I see them at that price, I buy a load :-) The...
