Hope you left a tip for the barista, I dont know how they cope under all that pressure

I got a 2018 i30 nline in December 2020 for $26,000. Sold it January 2024 for $25,000. Wish I had of got the i30N, They've gone up in price

Trying to find someone to make a novelty cake for my kids 8th birthday party. Out of the 5 I have emailed, Got 2 replies. One said she was sorry she couldn't do it as shegas got enough work on at the moment. The 2nd said she could do it, Gave a price and said 20% deposit to confirm. I replied to...

I've found petrol from ampol/caltex to be more economical. I used fuel from Puma (get 4 cents a litre off with racq) for a few months and 7/11 but wasn't getting very good mileage from it.

I dont understand these price cycles, Just a load of crap. Considering if other states don't have them

Give it a couple of days, They'll put it up. I'm actually surprised they didn't do it 2 weeks ago here when the school holidays started, Usually the price jumps during holidays

Glad I filled up the car yesterday. Paid $2.03 for 95, Drove past the servo today and it's $2.42

Once again the weather man on the news was completely wrong. Channels 7, 9 & 10 have been telling us all week there is a dangerous weather system heading for south East Queensland which was due to hit Saturday, Everyone should reconsider travel plans and stay indoors. The sun is out and there...

Probably why the price of gold and bitcoin is so high at the moment

Was that the leaky homes about 20 odd years ago? There were a heap of home built with dodgy products

And what countries are the building products going to be coming from? It's easy for a country to say they have high standards for products, But who's auditing the producer? My works factory is in China, They can get any certificate we need in a couple of minutes

Drinking alcohol is highly over rated

My first job in Australia was with tip top. It was the same, If you were rostered on a public holiday you got no penalty rates. The only days they would close was good Friday and Christmas day

He's not going to pick up any chick's by doing that though

All week the news have been saying fuel will be cheap for the long weekend. I put 95 in yesterday it was $2.12. Have seen 91 for $1.95 at a couple of places. So I guess now $2 is cheap petrol

I always thought part of being a tradie was passing on your knowledge to apprentice's. Just like an unwritten rule of the trade. I done my trade as a baker, And anyone willing to learn I was happy to help them. Because it's better for the industry.

How many years ago was that? Smoking in pubs, clubs and eating establishments in NZ has been banned since the late 90s I believe. Could be since early 2000s. There would be some places that ignore the law, But there is still a law against it

Yep The Sunshine state would rather spend billions on stadiums for the Olympics rather than invest that money in infrastructure to help ease the real issues

I thought the govt just tendered out the toll collection service, And they get a cut of the takings. The toll company (govia) gets the rest of the takings

The toll on the Logan highway was originally put there to recoup the cost of building the road, Govt said once they had the money back they would remove the toll. Guessing the road must be paid for by now, But the toll is still there. I go over the gateway bridge for work each day, Sometimes...

Biden will win again ,You watch. Then he'll have to step down shortly after winning

But you'll still have the $275 discount, Which will make the pollies feel like a job well done

The nightmare would be the fact that most of the employees probably don't know the actual prices of their products, Because they just press a few buttons and its all done. Plus the times I've used cash at maccas, They have trouble working out the correct change.

My last lease renewal in August last year the rent went up 30%. Car insurance went up 28% in December last year. Power went up 30% last year. I expect my next lease renewal to go up at least 25%. I consider myself lucky that I just have one child and a decent job, I really don't know how people...

They're all out of touch. She likely had advisors telling her what the average wage is, And goes from there. Much like when scomo was asked how much bread and milk costs, He had no idea.

Isn't it an exhibition match, Not a fight?

Lawnmower and a dishwasher, What a deal!

Get one of those plastic owls and put it somewhere high where the birds will see it, That should scare them off

Imagine being stuck in a plane for a few hours and it stinks of cat piss

I think a minister that has a portfolio should have served x about of years in that industry, It could mean that people in charge might actually make reasonable decisions. Seems like politicians just get given an industry to look after, But they have no clue about what to do

Change of season having an affect? I usually get a little unwell/unusually tired around this time of year for a week or so. It's still like summer weather in Brisbane at the moment so I still feel ok, But once autumn kicks in I'll no doubt cop it

Have you seen the movie idiocracy? I think it was made about 15 years ago, Its the way the US is heading

I expected a delivery charge, Got no issue paying that. The extra charges are a bit of a joke. But $44 for 2 budget pizzas? Meta to see what the premium pizzas cost

Usually I get a mini pizza for my 7yo, But they didn't have them on the website menu tonight

When the hell did domino's get so expensive? I haven't had a delivery from them for a while, Use to pick it up as they are only a 5 minute drive away. Was feeling a bit lazy to cook so thought I'd get pizza, Ended up cooking

I would say that the majority of politicians are out of touch with the average person

And woolworths will blame the supplier for the price increase
