    Aldi Whipper Snipper

    Just bought one - what a bargain.

    For $200 ($199 to be exact) I got a 2HP brush cutter. It came with blades as well as the usual twin line nylon. I was very impressed by the fact they even included a small bottle of 2 stroke oil and a mixing bottle. The only thing they didn;t chuck in was teh unleaded.

    Good thing about ALdi is that if it screws up or is **** then you can take it back. They are very good like that.

    Anyway I;m happy and just thought I;d mention it in case anyone is looking for a whipper snipper thing themselves.

    Cheers

    Hopefully the whipper Sniper is not made in the same factory that made the Bunning's chainsaw that everybody loves--love so much that the AULRO thread on them got somewhere over 400 hits from people who have never visited AULRO according to a post a few months ago by inc

    I bought a GPS from Aldi for my motorbike, best bloody thing you could hope for. I can take it off the bike and put it in the car and tune it in through FM modulation and have mrs navigator through all 6 speakers. The only problem is there is no Irish or Scottish female voice in it to make me go weak at the knee's

    arr to be sure to be sure,
    if you aren't being able to be hearing it in the mother tongue you can always use the recovery tecnique we perrfected in the lairds house,
    it twas a simple action performed by the laird himself.

    just take the thing by the throut and pass it toward the neareast bailment,
    do make sure that all the cords and other appendidges are disconnected, for fear of it not reaching and returning [remember michael and the barrow of bricks- poor chap]

    if after this action, the rightful mother tongue is not spoken, return the problem to it's rightful owner.

    Well I bought one at the same time. Put it in the shed still in the box - left it there for 2 years and now it starts OK but bogs down when you try to rev it.

    A Quick google indicates it could be the high jet needing adjusting. I took the air filter off and had a poke around. Anyone able to tell where the high jet needle is?

    I got an electric whipper snipper and a pruning saw all up for $28.00 in Mitre 10
    Both are working very good and have 1 year warranty
    For that money when I run out of cord I will chuck it on the bin
    Bloody Chinese!, how they do it?
