[REVIEW] DOVE MEN'S CARE THICKENING AND FORTIFYING SHAMPOO

 













This product provides innovation to treat the hair loss and thinning.
Special ingredient of CAFFEINE and CALCIUM helps the hair to become thicker.
I am trying this for 4 months and quite good feeling. 
Highly concentrated shampoo liquid allows to use 1 bottle for 1 or 2 months. I need to used more to find the clear effect but CAFFEINE may provide certain stimulation to make the hair thicker and fuller.

[REVIEW] ROBERT TIMMS ITALIAN ESPRESSO GROUND COFFEE BAGS 28PK 168G

One of the food brand which I have deep impression in my memory in Australia, is Robert Timms brands. Previously I tried a lot of coffee brands, but This product gave me great feeling in enjoying grind coffee in bag.

The aroma of coffee is quite pleasant, unique and inspiring when I take this after the meals. Originally I saw this product among serviced tea packs in Hotel in Canberra. And the memory of that time is still in my mind.

From this brand, I could feel professional efforts to find the best aroma and taste. I tried some other products from this brand, and I was not disappointed. I would like to suggest to try this brand sometimes if you have chances to find some coffees in COLES. (image from COLES.COM)







This product can be purchased from COLES online

[REVIEW] GOLDEN CIRCLE PEAS GREEN 410G

I tried a number of canned vegetables. And this GOLDEN CIRCLE PEAS GREEN 410G is one of the best tastes with good after-meal feeling.

Taste is clean, and has profoundness even in the soup itself. Price is a little high, but sometimes this can be a nice replacement for protein sources from meats.

[REVIEW] OPTUS PREPAID MOBILE BROADBAND PLANS


When I arrived in Australia, I was surprised to see the cost of internet service. Before coming to this country, I had lived in a location which charges $20 for unlimited Giga speed internet. I surfed unlimited amount movie in Youtube and even I could watch HD movies from Movie streaming service from NAVER.COM unlimitedly. Here Federal government is building NBN (National Broadcasting Network). But the internet installation and mamangement cost is quite expensive till now.

Because I have traveled frequently, mobile broadband service was quite useful for me. I compared the prepaid mobile data rate among Optus, Telstra and Vodaphone.

Best plan I could choose was OPTUS $130 recharge for 17.5 Giga bytes of data. The cost per 1G is $7.42.

My next favored plan was OPTUS $40 recharge for 3.25 Giga bytes of data. The cost per 1G is $12.34.

(image from optus.com.au)

Most interesting optus plan is $2 A DAY. With this plan 500Mbyte of data available per day. And with $40, 20G bytes of data can be optained from this plan. And the cost of 20G is equal to $140 worth of credit in prepaid mobile broadband plan. We can use $140 worth of data with $40 only. (image from optus.com.au)

The link of this plan is available from following link.
https://www.optus.com.au/shop/prepaid/sim-card/plans

The cost of Telsta and Vodaphone was about 40% higher than Optus plan.
But in terms of quality of data and speed, TELSTRA or VODAPHONE may be better in some location. Amaysim and Vivid wireless has very attractive unlimited plans. But the coverage does not include the  locations where I frequently use internet.


I hope Optus can prepare more attractive plans for heavy users who work in connected internet cloud environment.
