Ok, I caved and bought it and will be going to pick it up after work.

Purchased a copy of the Wrymspan board game for myself because I love dragons.

What does one have at a Royal Barbie? Angus beef snags on artisan bread? All the salads? Crownies?

King size anything I think. Maybe Queen of Puddings for dessert (basically a Floating Island).

Far out. I was wondering where my catโ€™s treats were if theyโ€™d been delivered and looked back on the security camera. Some dero with alcohol in his hand had come right up to my doorstep to steal my parcel in broad daylight.

So now not only does my cat not have her treats this sketchy guy now has my personal details (potentially including my number or email) and knows a woman lives here. Plus any attempts at identity theft that may follow.

That also might explain another parcel I havenโ€™t received.

Fuck this suburb and fuck these people. Scumbags are just multiplying.

I looked into a parcel locker ages ago but have been putting out fires and didnโ€™t get to it.

What's your knockoff brand that is better than (or just as good) as the name brand?

What's your name brand for which there is no substitute?

[โ€“] dumblederp@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Coles 1kg tasty cheese is the best of the cheap cheeses.

Milk. Milk is milk. I'm getting the cheapest one possible.

Lurpak. Nothing else comes close.

[โ€“] Duenan@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Aldi pasta, I think it's Remono or something. Cooks just as well and comes out perfectly al dente just like the more expensive Barilla brand.

Also I love their organic pasta sauce because it's cheap and it's so tasty.

[โ€“] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

the aldi pasta absolutly SLAPS!

Aldi goat cheese, both the sliced and spreadable is hard to beat. I will not compromise on Omo washing powder.

[โ€“] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Woolies or Aldi peanut butter. Woolies, Aldi or Coles soy milk bricks. Coles and Aldi dark chocolate.

Uhhโ€ฆ generally it involves needing to buy brand because the generic contains an allergen or causes a reaction. So Balnea sorbolene bar โ€˜soapโ€™ and Cerave pump lotion.

The Aldi Yogo is delicious. So much better than the original, which is already pretty good.

[โ€“] tone212_@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Aldi cream cheese (Westacre brand I think), better than any of the name brands at Woolies. The consistency is just right.
