It's taught me that the world is an incredible amazing place and Australia is the most beautiful and least discriminatory/racist country in it.

So the scam is routing you the expensive way to begin with?

Its so unlikely that our workplace runs regular training and also does tests to see if anyone falls for clicking on links. I once clicked on a link that was a pdf file. All hell broke loose and I was bombarded with 000's of emails in 3 days. Attempts were made to hack my Velocity account.

As usual, the Simpsons will have predicted it. Here's what the court scene possibly may definitely look like. If it gets that far, and you replace the opening line with "The Hosties asked me to use headphones while watching a video with sound":

Why not just quote a cash price too?

I got this while expecting a legit AP delivery, and if not for the phone number and vague threat at the end, I might have clicked. I'm sure it's just a coincidence that this random scammer randomly targetted me who just happened to be expecting an AP delivery.

It makes a specific reference to "listening".

You'd think someone would have queried United as to how they're going to enforce the contract condition after take off.

I see the popularity of downsizing has spawned specialist agencies, buyers advocates etc. They'll only tell you the pros of course.

As per @Quickstatus post, aged care is often overlooked in retirement planning. Here's an excellent article explaining the many costs. Not sure if it's paywalled or not, or if there's an Aged Care thread here that this could also be posted in)...

Thanks @serfty. Like @Pushka, I have a theoretical better use for QF points but the reality of using them as such doesn't match. I won't use them in this way though.

Interesting @JohnK that you plan to hold IPs in retirement. I think it's relative to the value of the IP at retirement, but I plan to (strategically) sell and dump the proceeds into a pension fund as the annual effort/costs of the IP and low-ish rent can't compete with a chunk of cash earning...

I'm way too cyncial to fall for the CA marketing of this match. Thus I haven't received any email so what points are you referring to?

here's an artist's impression:

Nah. I seen them nonnas there at Mediterranean Wholesalers in Brunswick heaping sugars into their caffes till the spoon can stand up. They wouldn't be drinking there if the coffee was bad. [We waayyyy OT now]

Feel this debate would warrant its own thread. Like the Lurpak butter one. Even though it's clear that Lindt is far superior.

Good luck! 'Lil help for you..... towards the top of the page....

Only one cycle for me. I skipped the last $90/week offer and this week I'm back to $50.

I've given them a run on occasions and had no issues other than their shorter opening hours and no after hours key drop off. It's also not as convenient as Mitchell for me as most of my trips are out to the west. I'm supposed to use our corporate travel agency, but they don't take Hertz...

Hertz really starting to piss me off. They regularly send an invoice with zero amounts. It is a PITA to have to chase up. They also now appear to charge a $500 deposit upon pickup because I've prepaid. WTF for? In case I keep the car for longer than agreed? They have my credit card, so...
