Good on ya!

Of course - what else would you expect?

They might do an EOFY sale, but it would be around 31 Mar of course. However, they might be doing a sale this weekend for King's Birthday.

Darn - you're right - double whammy!

They can ask - its not entirely uncommon. Most places probably just respond to your review, especially if the review comes across as being…

Well spotted - thanks chchnz99!

Cheapie legend!

Alan6984 commented on L'OR Espresso Coffee Onyx - 200 Capsules A$57.50 + A$11.57 Shipping (~NZ$76.84 Approx. Delivered) @ Amazon AU
Showing as in stock, but A$115 for 200 capsules for me.

Plus the climate impact from the waste heat generated by the body, moving from the distant parking space to the store - don't forget the…

I couldn't even get the $20 voucher to appear myself, let alone place an order to be cancelled. Think I'll stick with New World / Countdown…

Okay - time to stop discussing when you can only think to throw out insults. Please carry on with your not-loans to Squirrel.

You've got to consider the most likely scenarios, and plan accordion so there's always a spot up the nearest tree when the music stops - I…

Of course the two businesses are different, as are any two businesses at all, but that has nothing to do with the point I made above at…

Re-read it - still sounds like you are talking about lending money to Squirrel, and they pay you interest on the amount they have borrowed…

Really? What would you call it when A receives money from B and pays interest. Sounds like B is loaning money to A to me.

Perhaps, but the question remains, why they want to borrow from you at 5.25% rather than from anywhere else - what are professional lenders…

I always do this, but mainly to ensure I can make a quick getaway in the event of a nuclear strike aimed at Countdown. Hadn't considered…

> Money is with BNZ. > One way to think of this: Squirrel want to borrow money, and are offering you 5.25% (say) to lend to them. Why would…

LOL - I don't think I would bother, but well spotted :-)

Not as good as Hanover Finance that were offering 12%+ a few years ago :-O

Astounding that they didn't put something - just scrap paper say - down the sides.

Not at all - I did a visual inspection.

Alan6984 commented on Anyone Did Any Returns to Amazon AU?
I have no experience of this, but based on the [above](https://www.cheapies.nz/comment/181016/redir), if they say they will reimburse: >…

I use this site: https://www.cheapies.nz/ The guys who post there are top notch :-)

Others might feel differently, but for me, I won't ever think to look at it in the Wiki. That whole section seems mostly dead, mainly due…

Is there a discussion section attached to the wiki? I don't think it will really work having the Wiki in one place, and the discussion here?

justaddwater on Amazon Echo Dot 3rd Gen $19 @ Noel Leeming, Manukau (in-Store Only)

Always planning ahead! I try (don't always succeed) to purchase all Christmas / birthday gifts in sales etc through the year to keep costs…

Cool - I picked up a couple as they seem like a good Secret Santa option that meets the 'less than $20' criteria.

I think it would be good to only include clearance pages with a minimum discount (say, 40%, but whatever you think is fine with me). The…

Great idea Arsonist and thanks for implementing Wakrak!
