Picked up another one at midday from Big W Browns Plains. One left on the shelf. They are not against the wall with other pots but down one of the aisles.
 
There is **** loads at water gardens store. Just in a middle isle display heading towards pet area.
 
Re: 'What's an alternative pot...'

http://www.anaconda.com.au/Product/Camp-and-Hike/Cooking/Stock-Pot-And-Deep-Basket (mine was on-sale for $79)

After using a couple Big W 19L kettles for a couple years ( gas stove-top BIAB, 16L into fermenter), I recently bought the 30L as described in the URL above. In addition, I purchased a 2400 watt over-the side heating element which has been the bees knees! Why didn't I listen to proponents of OTS elements years ago...? The larger pot is easier for me. i.e. full volume , no spargeing and just one vessel.

Cheers
 
For all the costco members out there i was just at the one at crossroads nsw and they had stainless 22.7litre stock pots for $13. They were heavy based, quality of them was 10 times better then the big w ones
 
Picked another 19L pot at big w on Friday so there are some still around
 
Got a pic Heuz?

I'm not a Cosco member myself but I know one or two people who are. It sounds promising...

negative on the photo im afraid, mrs was at me for looking at pots again. First time i have seen them there, but this was the first time going to that costco. Stainless steel, sandwich base and stainless lid not glass
 
Ringwood BigW still has plenty on the shelf, saw them this morning while getting bean bag beans for the glassware mail out
 
Too bad Huez but I know what you mean. Whenever I go looking at large pots SWMBO starts on at me too.

"You've got at least 3 big stock-pots at home already! Why are you ogling these ones?!"
"...but baby, these are bigger. I can fit more beer into them..."

I think she's just getting a bit jealous, some women don't like to see their men trading in something old but perfectly serviceable for something bigger, newer and shinier. We might get ideas... :ph34r:

Back on topic; Big W in Brisbanes CBD has stacks of 19lt pots, whereas Big W Mt Ommaney had none last time I checked. I find calling the store before heading in takes all to uncertainty out of the trip.
 
Was at Big W, Browns Plains Qld yesterday, had about 10 on the shelf.
 
I think I have seen the 19L at Kmart now for the same price and it looks to be an identical pot

That said, I may have actually been in a bigW...theyre all starting to look alike nowdays
 
Capalaba big w had 10 or so a couple of weeks ago
 
I reckon these have been de-listed now. They no longer appear on their website, however you can still see them on some weird "admin" page -

https://admin.bigw.com.au/home-garden/kitchen/cookware/pots-pans/bpnBIGW_0000000006395/smart-value-stock-pot-19-litres.jsp

The normal page just gives an error now -

https://www.bigw.com.au/home-garden/kitchen/cookware/pots-pans/bpnBIGW_0000000006395/smart-value-stock-pot-19-litres

Are there any other options in this price range? I need one, not for a kettle, but for "other" purposes...
 
I bought one a few weeks ago, there was plenty on the shelf. This was on the Sunshine Coast. Kmart have a 16L or so for the same amount of money I think
 
They still have em, saw some on my visit to big w on the weekend. The website now only shows a limited number of things.

Big W Maribyrnong have eight or so on the shelves.

Yeah I managed to find some myself as well, Highpoint Big W seem to have a few.

Interesting that they now have glass lids, I seem to remember seeing them with metal lids in the past?

Also Big W's website it utter *****. It's like they've gone out of their way to make it useless. Is it so hard to just show a product listing and if a store has it in stock or not (hint, it isn't in this day and age!)?
 
Hi all,

Was in BigW at Strathpine (4500) today and noted that they had about 6 on the shelf there an at $20.00 each.

Cheers
