Kmart: Audiosonic DAB+ Radio

UPDATE: Returned for a refund (05/06/16 )

What sold me ended up being the reason why we returned this radio - the lithium battery. Fully charged the radio only plays for a few hours !!! Even worse...this is also supposed to be a clock radio with a Alarm and Snooze buttons but in stand-by mode battery consumption is still excessive - hopeless. Went into Kmart to browse through men’s clothing and inevitably ended up in the entertainment section.



Only recently bought a Retro DAB+ Mantel Radio, this one looks nifty and very portable so for $39 bucks let’s get another DAB radio. What sold me was the internal rechargeable lithium battery.

Kitchen pantry & condiments

Almost out of my Bolst’s pickles in particular Brinjal (Egg Plant). Normally get this stuff from Quality Groceries in Chinatown (The Glen) but they have become unreliable and unhelpful. Plan B is to swing past Syndal on the way home and stop off at Hindustani Spices & Video which is opposite The Palms in Blackburn Rd. Success !!!
