Saw Ryobi misting fan back in stock https://www.ryobi.com.au/products/details/18v-one-misting-fan-r18mf-0

They are only available occasionally.  I really love mine as they are a great way to get cool (and a bit wet) whilst camping.

Maybe you can follow in Rick “Ricko” O’Brien’s footsteps. I see he is advertising tag-along tours for around $4k per vehicle/couple for around 4 days from Northern NSW to SEQ. Pretty high profit margin I suspect given there is no accommodation provided and the only meals are dinners.

I see it is now advertised on FB for $1890 per couple/vehicle which is not that unreasonable. I was sure it was closer to $4k when I first looked. Anyhow, just wanted to set the record straight.

Let’s see, 98 cars over the last 7 years, that’s $186,200. Bugger missed that opportunity  ;D

Anaconda has Dometic CFX fridges on sale (in Victoria at least) if anyone is interested. They are claiming a savings of $400 - $500 dollars.

But he probably only "works"for 3 months of the year, so $8800 p/m cash in hand isn't too shabby + centrelink payments

Walked into the Echuca Bunnings with xmas vouchers to burn a week or so ago. Found they had a single Ozito chainsaw on clearance. https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-pxc-18v-brushless-chainsaw-skin-only_p0080956 it's $199 for skin only, but this one was $189 with dual charger and 2x3amp batteries as a kit  :cheers: Needless to say I grabbed it and ran hehe - will be very well used while camping!

I've got one, I don't think you will be disappointed, especially for the price.
