This is a fantastic initiative, and plenty of fun too! I love getting points for shopping online, but I'm a little disappointed in how rarely surveys are available.
This is a brilliant site, and I use it all the time. It's what to get when the person you'r buying for has everything. The website is really easy to use, you can select your price range and location, and the giftcards are lovely. This has been my salvation for many a birthday gift.
I use the service quite a bit, and bulk billing is excellent for students. I'm pleased to have found a doctor or two who I really like and trust, but I've had some pretty awful experiences here. Sexual health and relationship issues are really below par for a university health centre.
Sakeena's is a bit of a gem in Weston. The food is really tasty, the place is always crowded (a good sign!), and the price is spot on. It's the perfect place to grab a sandwich at lunch time, or have a coffee with friends.
Approximate cost: $10
It's hard to find a hair salon that you feel comfortable with, so I'm really glad Off London is so close to home. A fantastic, professional service, and well worth the price. My only gripe is that last time I made an appointment, no-one told me I was booked in with an advanced stylist. When I went to pay, I wasn't able to use my student discount and had to pay quite a bit more than I bargained for.
Approximate cost: $80
I'm not a huge burger eater. So why write a review, you ask? Because the London caters to people like me, and I love it. While a few of my mates can stuff themselves stupid on gorgeous burgers, I ordered a salad, which was huge, filling, and just generally great. The best of both worlds.
I loved my experience at On Red. The view is incredible, the dinner was beautiful, and the service was fantastic. My only concern (which can also be a positive!) was that the suggestion that you eat 4-5 courses instead of 2 or 3 meant much smaller portions. I always wanted a little bit more, but it's a great way to try a variety of food.

This shop is fantastic. The staff spend as much time with you as you need to make a decision. I hadn't bought a bike in years, and the staff offered really helpful tips, worked within my budget, answered some really dumb questions, and discounted my accessories. When my partner went to buy a bike the next day, they recognised me and gave us 10% off.
I come here almost every time I visit my family in Melbourne. It's the perfect place to catch up with a few friends, and it's cosy and inviting on a cold winter's day. The food is decent, if nothing super special, but it's always been a safe place to suggest when meeting people.
These cakes are delicious! I came with two friends, and had an incredible time over morning tea. It's a really pleasant space, parking is great, and the food just looks at you longingly. Grab a couple of friends and check it out.
