weggl Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 ESB Supplies, just did a check to see how much delivery for 6 cans of Coopers Pale Ale. Picked that just because they are all 1.7 Kg. The delivery in Sydney is only $8.5 for the 6 cans. Sure beats getting them fro SA. Weggl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy Waters Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 [rightful] [rightful] [rightful] Sure beats getting them from SA [rightful] Not really as you will be paying extra $20.70 for the cans. For you to order from Coopers to Manly Vale will cost you a total of $95.45 (incl. delivery) whereas to order from your new best friends ([innocent] ) will cost you $100.04 using the delivery cost you quoted. The cans from Coopers will probably be fresher too. This has been a community service announcement for the benefit of the Manly Vale brewing community [biggrin] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Woollies have Coopers cans on special at the moment for only $9. Well they do here at least [rightful] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weggl Posted May 8, 2011 Author Share Posted May 8, 2011 Yea Muddy, I only used 6 cans to show the difference in delivery cost, but try and buy say, 2 cans of Coopers LME and some, say dark ME and maybe some yeast. All from "my new best friends", delivery $8. [biggrin] Whereas from SA you need to buy 6 cans to make the maths work, I only have about $60/ week to spend on brews, so 6 cans at ones out of the question.[pinched] One would not buy beer cans out of SA because their prices are about the same as Big W.The only thing they have diffrent to the Big are the malt extract and the range appart from OS.

Muddy Waters Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 $60 a week to spend on brews! I'd kill to have a brewing budget like that [sideways] The malt extract is even cheaper from Coopers but I guess if you also want yeast you are better of going elsewhere...you'll only pay a few dollars more which, with a $60 p/w budget, is neither here nore there [tongue] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty A Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I only have about $60/ week to spend on brews I would have my brewing fridge and a fridge for kegs with a couple of taps on it with a budget like that [annoyed] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muddy Waters Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Naturally this deal comes about when I am sitting on a weekly brewing budget of $0 (Note to self - get a bloody job!) The good news is I still have enough ingredients to keep brewing for another couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Glass Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I don't like going to my LHBS very much. It's a bit pricey and it seems like customers coming into the store are an annoyance stopping the guy from doing non customer related tasks.[annoyed] So a big thanks to Coopers for free shipping this week.[joyful] It would be interesting to know how much others brewing budgets are. I spent an initial $300 on ferenting kit,cans,sugars,bottles etc. My monthly budget is $50 but I do get the odd can and sugar given to me by mates who drink with me.

PB2 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 If you plan to take advantage of this offer and stock up, store the Beer Kits and Malt Extract cans in a cool place (ideally less than 15C) to keep them in the best condition and whack the yeast sachets in the fridge [wink] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
