I swapped a brand new, still in the box, never had the tape cut yet Karcher Pressure washer for two free mows today.
She wanted $90.00 and her place is a $45.00 mow, so easy as.

Mowed today for free and will do the next one free as well and it'll cost me about $2.00 in fuel and 1.5 hours of work all up.

She told me it was bought at McBunnings a year or two ago.
I DON'T CARE HOW NICE THE HAND SOAP SMELLS.....

Am doing ok, not setting the world on fire but consistently finding good gold, it will definitely pay for itself and much more.

That story above is a furfy.

He found that piece some four weeks ago near Kingower with an older Minelab machine. [nice find hey!]

Along comes the release of the new Minelab, and a long weekend coinciding with the Wedderburn Detector Jamboree and
low a behold he is on the news.

Nugget now found at Wedderburn and he had one of the new model detectors in his hand.

A bit of creative advertising.

Got a price on some wheels and tyres yesterday from my local bloke. Today I went around to get some more prices on the same and find the wheels are now being discontinued and discounted. Went back to my local bloke with this info to get a new quote. Yesterday's price for 5 wheels and tyres including an alignment was $4065. Today's price now down to $3450. Deposit paid and one very happy camper. ;D
Shows that it pays to get quotes, Beau quoted me this morning at $4675 + alignment for exactly the same thing. ???

Paul

That price is for a set of 5 but yeh there's a price jump for 17's. Same tyre in an equivalent 18" size is plus another hundred each.

If you are looking for a Yamaha EF2000is it might be worthwhile giving Anaconda's price guarantee a go. They claim they will beat a verified competitor's price by 10%.

Sydney Tools (which has a bricks and mortar as well as online store) currently have the genie for $1395 whereas even with Anaconda's 25% sale this weekend it would still be $1425 at Anaconda.  So that means you should be able to get one for about $1255.
