How can you be that bored ;D
Bombers supporter.

Childminding turn.

Prior highlight was spending 45mins on the phone to UberGlobal and NetRegistry to migrate my wife's email. 3 days of bounced emails because the email was still pointed at Uber but domain had been migrated

Picked up a Waeco CCF 45 off facebook for $80, plus $20 for a new cable from Jaycar.
Not sure what I'll do with it yet, but when I saw it come up on facebook I couldn't let it go.

I turned it on in the car and on the 40 minutes it took to get home it was down to -10 empty so pretty happy about that. Thinking about using it in the boat but am not sure I want it in there yet.

Finally found a solution for all the wife's bbq crap in the outdoor area. I'd looked at these before at Bunnos, but at the usual price of $100-200 they were a little pricey for what I was after. Special this weekend for $39! I bought two, only used one as they fit a heap of crap. Now to train the wife to put all her crap back in the box...

So lets say a new camper optioned up to $35,000 is aquired.  In good condition, what do you think it to be able to be sold for after

Depending on how quickly you want to sell it, assuming reasonably quickly, I think about 15% depreciation would be pretty close per year so.
1yr $29,750
2yr $25,250
3yr $21,500
4yr $18,250
5yr $15,500
I think they depreciate a lot quicker than most people who buy new would like to believe.

i would say it also depends on the brand....like Toyota Landcruisers generally hold their value better then other 4wd's, some makes of trailers are similar.

A real bargain here! The inlaws have decided to get rid of their raised garden beds so I scored 48 meters of 200x50 redgum for free , gotta love that. Pressure washed the dirt off and cut them up in 2 different lenghts for the different fire pits I have.

Called into Bunnings for some bits and pieces and looking around saw they had the Ozito PowerXchange 4.0ah batteries reduced from $75 to $39.95.  Considering the 2ah and 3ah are $35 it's a decent saving.

They do that to price match the Aldi range when it comes up. Did the same with log splitters. When the Aldi sale is over, the prices go back up.

They are matching ALDI's batteries that they have on sale. I may have already purchased a few with the intention of using them for the trolling motor on the kayak.

edit Adrian beat me too the bit about ALDI
