    Is anyone else using ChatGPT?

    I was going to start a new thread to ask something similar, but instead I'll propose to take this one a bit off topic to using AI beyond travel planning but to professional and personal life. This weekend i've asked claude to help me build a html web app which can do a bunch of manual data...

    Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

    In a good week these time with other high value small items which are on sale - certain moisturisers / sunscreens, preferred shampoos, electric toothbrush heads, eye drops, olive oil, etc which I like to avoid paying full price for.

    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    Good call, that's the current plan. Still have two monthly sweeps to work with if I time it right. Rates might get excluded from earn (govt transactions excluded by my card) so may need to go via prepaid cards; one reason I was excited by that offer yesterday.

    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    A bit nervous to risk the qantas or edr balances on this, as I'm hoping to claim them next year. But thanks for the suggestion.

    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    Neither base nor QBR points have come through from this one but yeah, will need them to land in QBR to then transfer from QBR over to my normal qff account before the membership year ends. Will probably assume I need a different angle, in case this doesn't come through!

    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    Good call - no travel planned but you never know. And yeah, hoping to avoid converting the extra woolies points, but was hoping to save those for a dent in next year. I frustratingly have 2,900 QBR points and some due from a hotel stay early July - if that lands, it might push me over the 3000...

    About 10k short of an end-September target to retain PC, after projected CC points earn. Don't drink so wine's not an option for me, and hoping to save my woolies points (more than I need this year) to transfer for next year's PC retain. Any other quick-crediting 10k offers anyone has seen...

    Woolworths gift card thread

    Often, it can work to try to buy these cards a few weeks out of the annual iPhone update / release.

    4400 for $110 over here. Midway through a multi week I missed week 2 from. Wonder if it's an attempted clawback

    Optus new $50 SIM only with roaming

    On the prepaid plan I'm on, the $5 daily option only has 1gb. Same price over a week, but with the flexibility to have heavier and lighter use days, vs having to recharge mid day if I went over 1gb. Also, I haven tried to set up auto recharge, but I assume it would have to be done manually (vs...

    Optus new $50 SIM only with roaming

    That's an awesome find for frequent travellers. Assuming you don't need to use tonnes of data for photo backups etc, or it's covered by the hotel/an esim if necessary, that's an awesome option. I'm back on Optus after a sojourn via JB hi-fi's Telstra plans with gift card bonuses. Worked out to...

    Bali Flights Cancelled due to Lewotobi Volcano

    Not sure if I will turn it into a trip review but with some of the other flights on this itinerary, QZ is probably a walk in the park! QZ was your typical LCC - not much difference perceived vs Cebu Pacific, Nok air, Lion etc. Won't jump to the top of my list but yes, pleased I got there...

    Bali Flights Cancelled due to Lewotobi Volcano

    After talking to insurance, managed to get one of the last seats on a QZ flight out today. Hopefully the cost will only be the excess, and hopefully will make the connection tomorrow if DPS is still operating. Taxiid past what was probably the original ride on the way... Pax behind me claimed...

    Bali Flights Cancelled due to Lewotobi Volcano

    My flight's just been cancelled as well. JQ's only reroutes offered are tomorrow, which will see me miss a connection elsewhere in Indonesia. Time to call insurance, it seems...

    Had filled up 3/4 of my trolley tonight (Thurs) before realising the 4 week offer criteria start tomorrow. Sigh. Time is worth more than flybuys points. Due to travel will miss out on this round

    Just got Life Time Silver - now what?

    Not too far off lts myself, but travel has substantially cut back so imagine I will slide from wp down to LTS over the next few years too.
