You can be unemployed and fashionable

You can be unemployed and fashionable

But being fashionable shows that you have your shit together which I clearly don't.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Tapout shirts are fashionable now?

[Rekin]

On another note bought some wifi-controlled electrical outlets.

Can switch on the heating before I arrive home.

Where'd you get those from?

I'd love to piss off the neighbours with loud music while I'm away on holidays

I have a remote control power board but don't use it to full advantage

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

My heater is wifi... can control it via mobile app

Cool might check that out, was just reading about them

Gas is cheaper isn't it?

I would staunchly refute this lol

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Gas is cheaper IF it's a modern system equivalent to the elec one

[Leroy Peterson]

my regime on the heater keeps bills low.

first water bill of winter arrived the other day: $60.

still waiting for gas/elec to come in.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

I switched from Gas to Elec heating this winter... will update when bill arrives

so far gas bill has arrived and dropped from $46 to $29 per fortnight (bill smoothing)

if the Elec doesn't increase by more than $17 per fortnight then I declare elec the winner

Got a $100 rebate on my last waterbill.

No idea why...

Googled it and there's a whole bunch of rebates you can get for energy efficient washing machines etc. Can claim up until September for rebates effective until June 30th.

How you supposed to know about this?
