Big reduction, but relative small dimensions. What would it be good for?  Camera gear?

I was chasing a tyre for the Caddy, as one developed a lump. The spare is brand new, so one more 235/75x15 Mastercraft white wall tyre was needed.  ???

Rang a mate at Bob Jane and he says, yeah, $159.00 fitted and balanced.

So I says, what deal can you do on some 205/65x15 tyres for the work van.

OH, easy, buy 3 brand new Bob Jane All Rounders @ $89.00 and get the 4th one free.

Paid for 'em on the spot, as the deal finished that day (28/02)
Got 'em on today.
Works out to $66.00 a tyre or thereabouts and being made by Bridgestone, they're a pretty good thing for the work hack.
So now your tyres are worth more than the van...

Hi Baggs,
What size BFG tyre did you fit?

For the 285/75R16 AT's the best I've been quoted so far is $349.

and now... they're back on the website again.

http://www.bcf.com.au/Product/XTM-Transport-Case-50L-Dark-Grey/364711

XTM Transport Case - 50L, Dark Grey
Spring back side handles with comfort grip
2 heavy duty padlockable latches
Contoured lid for stacking
Rubber seal
Side tie down points for transporting
L63 x W39 x H35cm

Pricing expires tomorrow though. My local at Penrith had 1 left. (which I now have)

If you order online, they will only do home delivery at that price now. ($38 for two, which I also grabbed at that price as even with the freight it's still pretty cheap)

Also... that height will *just* fit under the bed deck in the trailer.

we'll see if they refund me again tomorrow morning I guess...

Picked up a Weber baby q off the good guys on ebay. Normally $299 but with CTGG discount code they have 20% off at the moment which brings them back to about $240

I have been looking for one for a while now and they are hard to get in a sale👍

Makes it 10% off once you factor in delivery. Or is there some way to select in store pick up?

Click and collect from The Good Guys. :)
BUT: it's the low lid model without a temperature gauge.

You can click and collect.

Been trolling eBay and Gumtree for a Weber Q 1000 for camping, as the Q220 is just too big to take...  Found a few that we've had offers rejected in the $250 range, so did a bit of bargain hunting, and discovered that BCF have a 20% off sale running including Weber's...

Weber Q1000 and duffle bag for less than the RRP of the BBQ itself... Convinced the chief we needed the hotplate and pizza stone as well, so winning!!

Some people baffle me with secondhand prices....I saw a Coleman instant tent for sale in Gympie that the owner was asking $250 for. She reckons she had used it half a dozen times..........Thats a tent I can buy new for $269. I offerred her $150 to start with and got a mouthful by message from her.

Yeah, it's amazing isn't it... Thing is, if they'd accepted our offer, we wouldn't have even looked at BCF

Ebay and Gumtree have gone nuts with second hand prices, but garage sales are usually good value. I bought a Ridge Ryder kayak with paddle, in really good nick, for $80.00 last weekend. Bought it mainly for the grandkids to use when they stay over, but I might use it to chase bream and flatty around as well.
4.2L TD Toyota Troopy, (Clarke's Country Camper Trailer, softfloor.) sold it and bought a Avan Ray small poptop caravan. I miss being able to acces the little tracks off into the scrub.
