747 Bar Carts

[Pushka]

Ok just tried again and got the half cart
I wonder if they are reloading as they find more carts?

Excellent. Maybe that’s the case.

Expect for some (short time) novelty item, what would you do with a 747 cart in your home?

I guess if you have a cat, they could make some use of it.

Would've loved a half size, but cannot justify going all in!

I plan to keep it stocked when we have outside functions. I think you either want it or not. I have a lot of points to burn after all the cancels and no where to go so why not. Didn’t cost me “a cent”.

That is one of the reasons we did it as well. Husband and I both have points at the moment due to cancellations . He is also a member of points plus club. So 152,000 and he gets just over 2000 points back for "spending "

• Wine Storage.
• Eclectic alternative to an Ikea storage unit.
• Fill the trays with Ice and beer cans and put it next to your BBQ?
• Memorabilia/collectible
• Mobile tool and hardware storage.

All sold out now, so clearly people have some ideas!

Edit: adding usage ideas submitted by others.

How to tell if your Qantas bar cart is genuine:
The breaks probably don't work and when you stop, it will keep on moving
Tubs will do one of the following - will go in and won't come out or will go in and collapse to the bottom with any weight on them whatsoever
There should be remains of a faulty sticker, or if you are really lucky, the tag that reports its faulty but somehow manages to get back into the network

How to use your bar cart:
If you purchased a full sized cart - you must use 2 people to move it
Put the items you use the most, in the least convenient location. To really add to the experience, don't use the other door to access the rear contents, instead pull everything out to get to it, then sigh loudly when you realise it was actually in the front all along
To ensure the security of your bar cart, use barbed wire, then use your bare hands to remove it and curse at the end that these things are so hard to remove
To upgrade your cart to business class, drape linen over it. Carts cannot be upgraded to First, as carts do not enter the cabin in first
When moving your cart, ensure to hit as many items in your house as possible
Do not close the door, slam it shut instead to make as much noise as possible disturbing everyone around you. Then go oops when you realise what you did.

I grabbed a small this morning. Mobile tool and hardware storage for the man cave.

That is gold. I can’t wait to hit MrP in the shoulders from behind.

And as I type this they are talking about people buying these in Adelaide radio.

Place it in front of your bathroom door to deter people from using your loo...

Elbows hurt more if you want to inflict a little more pain

Let's hear some more usage ideas from those who snagged one. I'll add to the bullet list above.

For anyone who did manage to get one (I bought a half cart this morning)
Look to this old thread for inspiration

Great thread to review.
And of course photos as they arrive.

I received a phone call from Qantas about 6 weeks ago surveying this idea.

Good to see they went through with it.

 

[Cruiser Elite]

I'll take one - how does a lowly 'Red Label' get one?

Need to get @Limewood in on this party to tell us how to restore all our new trolleys!
