Have had both Pfizer shots done now. Tender arm at injection site for 24 hours but that's it. Was a very smooth and quick process and was in and out within 30 mins both times here in Melbourne.

Would be back in America no doubt, my American wife hasn't seen her family in 2 years now because of covid. I even miss the grilling I get by the staff on arrival!

The only problem I had with US Costco is seeing all the products we DONT have here...that and they seem to be busier. I'll be back over in America May-June and will be making a few more trips to stock up on some things that they dont sell here.

Interesting, not as cheap as I thought it would be, its about that most places at the moment. Paid 98c yesterday. Wow thats cheap, its $36 for the same size at Dan Murphys and they are usually the cheapest. Guess Im going to CostCo on the weekend.

Not yet, had to use it for a couple things so once it's paid off I will then look out for the next one!

Just got my bonus points about 6 weeks after receiving the cards. I did email commonwealth rewards asking when I'd get them last week and today they appeared.

Great news, im still waiting for my points to come across. I got mine mid November so will no doubt itll be a little longer

I was able to upload my documents through the netbank login

I just booked MEL - LAX for $1000 in June, think they had to match United's $979 return deal. Great time to head to America...if only the AU$ goes up by then

This is the biggest thing for me as the extra $100 they were charging for a second bag made them more expensive than Qantas or Virgin

Some cheap flights on sale right now, $979 SYD to LAX when booked before Dec 4th

My wife is American and living here and makes sure her taxes are filed every year. Thankfully she hasnt gotten a letter from her Aus bank for her to give them all her details to satisfy the American government. We know of a lot of American expats that havent filed in years and I could see a lot...

If Wantirna South isnt too far out of your way, Bushy Park has trays of Mango's for $20...not sure if that compares to CostCo. https://www.facebook.com/BushyPark/photos/a.166607473432096.38628.122407124518798/929276860498483/?type=3

(I shop at the Ringwood VIC store) Pro's: - Huge savings on some items (ie Levis jeans) - Have items that you cant get anywhere else or in a size that you cant get in your regular grocery stores - Big range of items - Parking is plentiful Con's: - Crowded on weekends - Lack of food samples...

I travel form MEL to LAX every 12-18 months or so to see my wife's family and we've taken our daughter once (she was 8 and 10 months at the time) and I was stressed the entire flight. She was fine though, slept more than we imagined possible. Before reading this thread I wouldn't have...

I called them this morning and they said that because I applied through the Qantas CC app link, the bonus points and yearly fee waiver are applied to whatever card you apply for. So I will get my points so Im happy.

I spoke with them and the girl was just as confused as I was and had to escalate it to the CC team to see about my points.

Thats exactly what happened, applied for platinum but got given a gold one with a lower credit limit. Tried calling but was on hold forever so will try again. Fingers crossed I'll still get the points!

Seems commonwealth bank approved me for a card that I hadn't applied for. So goodbye 40k points

Good to know, just got approved so now its a waiting game for the card to arrive
