Wakrak on Extra 40% off Outlet Items + $11 Shipping ($0 adiClub Members or with $150 Spend) @ adidas NZ

Eventually... Probably.... Maybe..... Of the four times I've ordered here I've managed to actually get the shoes once. That was after a...

I went to Ferry Rd in the end today, which wasn't so bad. Stanmore still had around five to ten cars on the street waiting when I went...

And blocking Stanmore road most of the day! Honestly with the amount of time (20min plus easily at times) some people are sitting in their...

Better than Teflon. Of course basically every person in the world has telfon in their blood at this point, so...

LupinS commented on Bathroom renovations and trade depot
I've found that TradeDepot stuff is generally better quality than similarly priced stuff at Bunnings/Mitre10. They often have a better...

flembots on Cost + 10% on Selected Brands (Canon Printers, Fisher & Paykel Whiteware, Logitech Accessories) @ Noel Leeming

Often more than their sale price. Remember it's their cost to supply (which can be basically anything they say), not the price they pay to...

I'm pretty sure it's a case of staff having zero clue and giving zero. Often including the managers. Pity, when I did retail I didn't just...

It's super easy to change file formats.

Should have read this before posting below. Thanks. Was pretty sure that's what was happening.

I've had it in store. Counter staff were going to argue about even price matching. Manager put it straight through. T&Cs don't exclude them.

LupinS commented on Advice: Netflix Turkey Gift Cards
Not sure what the story is yet, but my "gift" expired on the 12th and I didn't get a new card to see what would happen (already had a...

It doesn't really matter in PAL countries. You'd be hard pressed to find a DVD player or TV that won't play both formats. Hell, most VCRs...

Sadly less and less the case. The time wasters have realized that they can ask for bids to be withdrawn and the seller has to do so. There...

Not really. 3mm max. And that will be with 10+ passes. So expect an hour plus for even the smallest project and for it to look burnt on the...

xsolider on Castrol Edge 5W-30 5L Engine Oil $50.99 (Limit 2) @ Supercheap Auto ($43.34 via Pricematch at Mitre 10)

Changing your oil is easy, as is changing both the oil and air filter. Zero need to check your battery if it starts your car. The only...

Probably not going to help anyone now, but interestingly the code stayed active after 12. I thought it might be because they had set to...

Yeah, pretty sure that's what I paid. And got 5% back too.

LupinS commented on New PlayStation Plus Games Tiers
Singapore (in Asia zone and always has both Chinese and English language versions of PS+ games for anyone unaware) Essential - 1 month...

This happens because they are either actively monitoring the price, or they have already priced matched. It's a good thing. It means...

Well, they called themselves Heat Recovery Ventilation despite their systems not actually having any heat recovery ability. Hence why they...

HmmYepNah on [PS5] Far Cry 6: Yara Edition $29 (Was $109.99) + Shipping / Pickup @ EB Games

It's ok. I played for a while on the free play weekend. Starting to go a little too much in the Just Cause silliness direction though. Did...

LupinS commented on [Kids 13 & Under] Free Slice of Cake (from the Daily Treats Fridge) for Completing Colouring Competition @ The Cheesecake Shop
Lol. One year a teacher I worked with ferried van loads of kids to get this. I'm sure the store was really impressed :) I'd also hate to be...

LupinS commented on JVC TV & Audio products at Warehouse
Totally normal. JVC (and a lot of other companies) hasn't actually made products in years. It's just a name that is licenced to give a air...

LupinS replied to
UnitedWeFall on Mystery Tech Boxes; $20 or $50 + Shipping ($0 with MarketClub Orders Over $45) @ 1-Day, The Market

Actually probably correct. Loot boxes in games are considered gambling by many, and at least problematic by most others because they share...

LupinS commented on Recommended Smart DNS service for Netflix
Surfshark works fine for Netflix. You may need to occasionally change servers. You can't use it (or any VPN I've found) on a Android TV...

LupinS on [PC, X1, XSX, PS4, PS5] Free to Play Weekend - Far Cry 6 @ Ubisoft, Epic & Console

.... Going to be more challenging than I though. PS4 download server must be getting hammered. Current estimate for complete download - 9...

LupinS commented on [PC, X1, XSX, PS4, PS5] Free to Play Weekend - Far Cry 6 @ Ubisoft, Epic & Console
Finish Farcry 6 before the 29th at 7am huh? Challenge accepted. The weird thing is I like the Far cry games and usually buy them close to...

LupinS commented on Free Selling Saturday Only, Includes General Items, Cars and Motorcycles @ Trade Me
Changing the end time on a listing cost. 25c these days. You can usually withdraw for no fee however.

Note that you need the video backed up. Not just in the device itself. It is very easy to rip off any wireless door cam or similar and take...

Parcel Pod costs like $5 a month (may not even be that much). You get notifications when there is something to pick up.
