      Officeworks was slightly cheaper last trip back to Oz (against Lazada anyways) - and there's cheaper places like Umart to check out. If the unit has international warranty - probably best - though have never had to claim on any to date...

      Room Overnight In Hong Kong

      By easy44 · Posted

      I am making a visa trip overnight to Hong Kong and need advice on where to stay. Leaving 12/16 and returning 12/17. Looking for cheap, clean, close to the airport, if possible. All Google shows around the airport are 5 star hotels. I never spent much time in HK so not at all familiar with the area. Any suggestions?

      tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish", or "To write with a broken 
      pencil is pointless." An annual competition is held by the New York 
      Times to see who can create the best original lexophile.

      This year's winning submissions are posted here.
