First, my first world problem rant. One of my favourite Hertz locations (GEX) deceived and overcharged me over the weekend. So, cancelled my usual self-drive car to MEL. Stayed at a friend's closer to MEL, couldn't sleep a wink and his hot water is out. Flying 0830 MEL - SYD then 1115 to SIN...

I agree with this. Then, put up nice big posters in the gates of common holiday destinations: "If your actions or behaviour disrupts this flight, you could be up for: Fuel, crew hours, landing fees, security costs etc, like these dickheads *inserts photos* who decided to play fisty-cuffs...

I don't know if they're available for individuals, but a coach company I do work for uses BigMate.com.au It is a little box about the size of a matchbox that is installed behind the dash. It connects to the vehicle's power supply and has its own battery (which charges whenever ignition is...

Equally as interesting is when you stand back at any train platform. Most train services are of uniform carriage configuration, 4 or 8 cars, doors at either end of each carriage. People will spread out along a platform while waiting, but as soon as a train approaches, everyone starts to walk...

There's no reason why you couldn't pre-load the card with cash then pay your liability, still counts as a purchase

A month later, have the water & beer alternatives been spotted anywhere? Or is it all done & dusted..

Re: ABC Just in news of Emirates flight experiencing tubulence I wonder if this coincide with the passenger injuries? Heads being used as wrecking balls against overhead luggage bins?

I do, but I also have the 'remember me' box ticked. And although it would help you out, as others have suggested, there may be other issues plaguing you

Unless I am preparing food for someone else or caring for someone who's sick, my attitude towards is very casual.. No; - washing clothes in hot water - hand sanitiser - shampoo/condit (once you stop washing the oil out of your hair, your body stops producing it. Water is more than sufficient...

Valid point.. But I guess if you weigh up using a set of even 5 different passwords amoungst the sites that you use (I used to use 4, very personal, important, semi and couldn't care less) where none of the providers' primary business is security vs using a unique password for every different...

+1 for password managers. I use LastPass. You set one master password (that you don't use on any other site) to secure your vault. Lastpass has extensions for Firefox and chrome (& no doubt the others) so when ever you are presented with a password box, you can either generate a long, random...

I made a point of asking first, so that I had the consumer right about "sales person said product/service did x" to seek a refund later if the product/service didn't meet advertised... something (3rd spirit). At $30-40 a bottle, it couldn't be a huge hit to the bottom line to offer this, but I...

Gym! I was thinking about this the other day, the ultimate way to kill time (given you could spend as little or as much time as you wanted/had)

GE's Go Mastercard earns points for ATO payments. I paid 20,000 last month and received $20,000 points (no points cap it seems). Gift card options for VA are as follows: Points $50 6,880 $100 13,130 $250 31,880 $500 63,130 So for 0.42% payment fee, you would spend...

I know some people insist on getting to the airport 2 hours before (intl) and again nice and early for domestic flights. I personally try to minimise the dead time at airports (otherwise I end up killing time/liver in the bar (which I am doing right now as a meeting ended early and my flight...

Just paid a casual entry about 20 minutes ago, but glad i asked "are the spirits still flowing?" Which was met with a cheerful yes. No such luck at the bar. Trial has finished. No questions asked when requesting a refund. As a no beer or wine drinker, my joining the VA lounge was contingent...

After Melbournians suffered the great shopping strike of 2016 (closed for one day: Good Friday), they quickly flocked to CostCo Docklands this morning to seek relief from their day-long famine. So much so that traffic was backed up from the car park entrance, up to the traffic lights and queued...

I used to keep bags of 50 x $1 coins for passengers like you (most of whom used to do it often to get free rides).. Emptying the bag and taking out a couple of bux for the fare and handing out two handfuls of coins was a great deterrent :)

The good news is, journey planner is FINALLY turned on in Google Maps! Downside is, no 901 option
