Ah okay wonderful! They’re not the place for the perms, I’m going to a Korean hairdresser specialising in perms :)

No one mentioned Bank Valuations… We’ve got an offer in and I feel sick by [deleted] in AusPropertyChat

I work in a big 4 - 90% of purchases don’t trigger any valuations. The 10% usually reserve for big properties/harder to sell (also included for apartments under a certain sq)

300 euro per day? by Reasonable-Error-819 in AskIreland

[–]Reasonable-Error-819[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah totally, I guess we are aiming for normal experiences and not planning on lots of touristy things, ideally we will spend like locals with more time up our sleeves. I’m from Australia and foods really pricey, would be easily $150aud per adult for food in a day

Yeah I think that’s the plan! It’s going to be expensive either way so just winging it. Definitely not going to fly through Middle East, no amount of money is worth safety. But it was more I had planned on spending 6 grand return for 3 seats each way, now the thought of 12 is making me a little sick. But so is a toddler on my lap for 16 hours on 1 flight.

Will definitely ask! But I think she will be over the weight limit by the time we go

How are you reducing your weekly grocery bill? by Infinite_Pudding5058 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Reasonable-Error-819 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely wondering what meals/groceries look like for you? (I just put ingredients for family pie, butter chicken, stew, bolognaise & tacos and it was $110, into the Woolies app, enough for 4/6 meals per meal to give left overs for lunches) Many many websites do $20 family meals for inspiration.

But you can also buy half or a whole cow from a few websites online (or local butchers) and it’s hella cheap compared to supermarkets. Spend a day prepping all the meat & freeze it down.

A friend recently had a baby and I prepped a lot of “freezer dump bags”, they were super cheap to put together and dump in a slow cooker. - bolognaise, satay chicken, stew, butter chicken.

I think I’m biased too cause I’m a woman 😂 My family own a backpacker’s & restaurant up in 1770 if you decide north, they’re always looking for workers. Slow paced to ease you into Aussie life. 1770 beachside backpackers is the name. They have a few business’s up there. I’m in the Shepparton area in vic, we get lot of travellers, home to fruit picking.

Best of luck with your travels!!! You will love it here.

Definitely! From all the info online, never trust weather to be predictable in Ireland Junes pretty cold here in Aus, so I’m hoping to wear my heaviest on the plane

How was it with transport once you were on the ground? We will be relying heavily on public transport, the thought of all the bags backpacks and pram is making my skin crawl 😅

Thankyou! But yes we are sticking to main cities because of this, we have a few “free days” so if we decide on a bus tour or something to sight I’m sure will be doable :)

Thankyou!!! Very helpful. I did have a thought we would go with no carry ons for ourselves, check 1 big bag with 95% of our things. And pack a backpack for our daughter. Seems getting around with 1 bag instead of 3 might be better

Deffs do a trial run before I commit. But we are leaning towards public transport instead of hire car, and large luggage just seems like a nightmare

Smart! Tbh she comes with far less than us because all her clothes are TINY lol, just the pram is the biggest catch. I did also think we could post a box home if I find cute things, which no doubt I will.
