Scott on 2007-10-12 at 12:29 am, filed under Weekly

Another busy week at OzBargain. I know that I should not try to post anything past mid-night but it has also been a busy day for me. If you can’t understand what I am posting, hopefully I will remember to correct all the spelling and grammatical errors tomorrow morning. Meanwhile, here are some great deals posted by the community members at OzBargain.

Beijing Card Time flies! It is almost 2008 already, where the Olympics is going to be hosted at Beijing China! Thanks to dansor for posting this deal, where you can get free Official Pin from olympics.com.au.

More Air Ticket Sale

Cheap air fare seems to be our regular feature here, as there are more competitions coming to Australia.

Competition is good as it drives down the price. Competition is bad because it has made my work so busy that I don’t have time taking holidays to use these incredible deals :(

    Gotta love those Tiger fares, I collected a $60 fare from Gold Coast to Melbourne. Not insanely good, but good enough…!

    I notice you have switched to partial feed. What’s the rationale there? (curious)

    I’m considering whether to use partial feed on my new blog or not. I know people like full feed but it kind of makes advertising pointless.

    Actually I can’t remember how it went to partial feed — now it is back to full feed now.

    I make bugger all on the advertisement and it is always good to give what people like :)

    A quick search on retailme.com uncover a 30% off discount code. kayak30

    A bit too late for those who already made their purchase.

    Jonk, I got the $20 tickets Melb-GC for both ways. Lucky me it suited with my purchase on the JETstar SALE a week earlier. Ended up paying $140 for my trip from Perth to Melbourne & Gold Coast.. and back! These airlines should do this more often. :)

    You know were getting screwed when Qantas and Branson gang up on us. A new competitor can seemingly be much cheaper all the time .
    They are not sale fairs and will always be cheap, but i did have a check. In the uk the longest flight with their low cost carriers is only 4 hours to morroco so i think fuel cost is a factor for international flights but thats probably it.
