originally i tried to buy a sodastream off ebay. i max bid at $25 but it ended up at $52 ! i was only after the gas bottle ....
doc, after reading your post, i feel like we are twins
went to kmartie tonight (wasnt going to mention broadway, but you have already) & asked for a sodastream gas bottle. the guy asked if i had one to swap, & i sheepishly said no. he wasnt fussed & said i should pay a deposit of $11 & get a green coupon when i return this one (?!?).
being 15% off, also got it for $9.35. one of the other staff there thought this wasnt right & said it wasnt paying for the gas. he said it was. i walked away happy, expect to pay $30 but walked away for $9.35 (refill price - %15).
a very pleasant end to the working week. will pickup a regulator next week & bbq that weekend with workmates. staff were confused / lackadasical (end of shift / dont give a f*ck) so anyone else after a sodastream gas bottle, try your luck at kmartie, perhaps not broadway thou
nb - just noticed this large yellow sticker, that says on reverse that it must be attached to receipt to confirm 'user license'. is this needed when dealing with kmart or only directly with sodastream ?
