Was fun to do for something different! A bit of a novelty, but not much to do when in there... Drinks were good - loved the glasses made of ice! Became very crowded very quickly, and was a lot smaller inside than I expected. All in all, glad we did it but definitely just as a one off thing.

Friendly instructor, was very patient and answered all questions clearly and in detail. Was made to feel comfortable the whole time and they made what could have been a stressful experience much easier!

Approximate cost: $185

I had a reasonably nice meal when I went there for a work lunch, but the people I were with weren't overly impressed with what they ordered. Typical pub bistro meals/prices/atmosphere.

Absolutely love Schnitz! Food is consistently good, staff are friendly, and it's always very quick. It appears quite costly for takeaway/fast food, but it is worth it!

Approximate cost: $15.00

This review is for Seasons Restaurant, Berwick VIC

We visited Seasons after receiving one of their menu's in our letterbox, and saw that they did Yum Cha on weekend's. Unfortunately though, it was less than impressive. Upon arriving, we told the lady that we had a booking under our name and she nodded and took us to a table with 2 other people already sitting there - not anyone that we knew - quite awkward. After seating us at another table, the waitress came and gave us the menu's, and told us that as they are only just starting to do Yum Cha and it isn't very popular yet (??!), they don't it the traditional way and we had to order from a set menu. We were very disappointed that we had not been told this when we called to book for Yum Cha. It was quite difficult to pick from the set menu and the staff lacked knowledge and couldn't answer any questions that we had about any of the dishes (how many came on a dish, what something was, would it be enough for us, etc). The food was ok - it took a long time to come out, there was a very limited selection, and it wasn't anything special. They cleared our drinks away before we were even finished with them. Compared to other places we've had yum cha, Season's was very expensive (cost almost double what we normally pay for yum cha) and was overall, very disappointing. We definitely won't be going back there again for Yum Cha.

This review is for Grocery Run, Moorabbin VIC

Grocery Run often has some good offers but you always need to check the use by dates as some items are cheap for a reason! Good for buying non-perishable items in bulk at a cheaper price though. I like that the products change very regularly. I bought some Easter Eggs and they were broken when they arrived, and another of my orders took almost 2 weeks to arrive, but haven't had any other major issues.

I always check the back of my dockets, hoping to come across a good local deal! Have used a few for takeaway food, coffees, and eating out every now and then. There are often some great deals hidden away on there.

This review is for Flybuys, Melbourne VIC

Flybuys is good - I'd be spending money on groceries and fuel regardless so it's nice to be able to get something back every now and then! Easy system which seems to work well.

This review is for Sage At Parkhill Family Bistro, Berwick VIC

Went here once and weren't very impressed with the food or the service. My friend actually found a piece of metal scourer in their meal which was pretty disappointing! Other meals were OK but nothing amazing so haven't been back again.

This review is for Ebay.com.au, Sydney NSW

I have bought and sold a fair bit on Ebay over the past few years. It can be a great way to save a lot of money, as long as you do your homework - compare prices, check products, read feedback, etc. We saved quite a lot of money on our wedding by buying decorations and other bits and pieces on Ebay. Also managed to resell some items to get some money back! Some of the seller fees can be quite expensive though so it pays to check these out carefully.
