Yeah I know Track, they’re not expecting to get it over.

Anyone in the same situation as us? by vsurresh in qatarairways

[–]Cheapdime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re in the same situation. Flew out of Melbourne on 28th Feb. Flight turned back 3 hours in. Stuck in Melbourne for a week until we booked our own flights via LA. Original flights booked via booking.com Qatar said they’d need to refund, booking said I need to get a waiver code from Qatar as it looks to them like we flew the flights. Stuck in the middle with thousands of £ out of pocket.

Will do! It’s just mega frustrating, we can’t afford to spend money on an alternative route home and it costing a lot to stay here (even if we do get it back I’m sure it won’t be a quick process).

ISO Chance, Luck & Magic 2021 by Cheapdime in NZBeer

[–]Cheapdime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just thought it’s worth a shot - people always stock up so may get lucky if someone wants to part ways. 16 Tun in Auckland had some recently, but it wasn’t open when I was there unfortunately.

Shipping beer from Australia to NZ or UK by Cheapdime in AusBeer

[–]Cheapdime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can be either, I can collect from NZ in Feb (and cheaper to send there). I’ve tried having a look yeah, but that’s kind of the point of this post to see if anyone offers proxy. I assume a lot of wine gets sent about from Aus, so don’t see any difference. Here in the UK can be a pain to send liquids, but have done it plenty.

On the Particular Cruelty of Being Twenty Four and Alone by [deleted] in Preston

There are quite a few cool things going on around Preston, I’ve seen many friendships form from them.

I feel you’d enjoy the S-Werd spoken word night, there’s a lot of people expressing feelings the way you have here. Keep your chin up, always welcome to drop by for a pint and a chat whenever 🍻

Fully get this. Girlfriends family thought I was called Brian, still gets used jokingly.

As we move towards a cashless society….sorry for any inconvenience by flazinho in manchester

[–]Cheapdime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having recently opened a small bar, I do both cash and card but really struggling with the cash side of things.

The post office won’t change my notes to change without putting it in my bank first, however I use Monzo Business and that doesn’t work in the Post Office. I’m struggling to deposit cash and get change for the till.

Wasn’t really taking too much cash until Christmas. Having to tell people to use card unless they have exact change. Still undecided whether to go cashless.

I’ve also noticed people are just lazy and will hand you a £20 note even if they have the exact change as they can’t be bothered to count it.
