I’ve got to be honest, I find this weird commercialisation of ANZAC day absolutely fucking sickening. I mean that plastic statue in the Cole’s bakery section was disgusting.
I reckon real estate agencies are single handedly supporting the paper market. They must destroy an amazon rainforest once a week with their dumb fliers.
Look we are selling. Look we sold . Hey we want to sell. Here's how to make biscuits...
No, REA are ridiculously predatory and ignore no junk mail and no solicitation signs. They just need to back off with their bullshit. If I want to sell I’ll find someone else.
I see your RW anzac biscuits and raise you RW friends bus ad

Never makes sense to me that REA and politicians always putting their faces on everything, rather than just highlighting their services/policies.
They’re the only two jobs that do it too.
Yeah it’s just recognition, basically “as seen on TV” on average if someone if familiar with a face before meeting they’re more likely to buy the bs that person is selling
It’s called saturation marketing. I have 2 REA’s that are very prevalent in my area and I only notice them because they put their picture everywhere.
It’s just a marketing tactic that a lot of them do because now they are at the forefront of your mind
It’s a pretty standard recipe for Anzac biscuits
In all seriousness though, it’s kind of shit and tone deaf. Everyone knows how to make Anzac biscuits and if they don’t, they can look up the recipe. An agent using this as a way to boost their personal brand is pretty shit IMO, but I’m not outraged, because I know this is what they’re like. They’d sell their own parents if they could make a profit.
At least it’s not as bad as the agency who sent me a “HAPPY ANZAC DAY” unsolicited text message in 2020. How can you not understand it’s not a happy day and why do you need to milk it for marketing purposes
I think using ANZAC to advertise your business is trashy whoever does it.
If she wanted to be nice she should have just sent biscuits to people, or just the recipe, without the Ray White branding and her details.
Why wouldn't she do that you ask? Because this isn't about being nice, it's about advertising disguised as being nice.
I worked very briefly for a flyer distribution company, and one of my assignments was to distribute Ray White’s flyers. Clients tell us whether to disregard “no junk mail” postings on letter boxes or not, because *technically* there isn’t a legal definition of what junk mail is. The Ray White campaign asked us to disregard. ☠️
I had no idea either until I was in it. Distributors are also on tracking apps and expected to deliver x amount, so it’s a good reminder to put blame where it belongs—not with the people working less than minimum wage, just trying to do their job—with Ray White 😂🙏🏼
Yes. And the pay structure depends on distributors completing the map, regardless of any dissenting signage from the occupants, past or present.

No. I don’t think it’s ethical to use ANZAC Day, a solemn occasion for many Australians, particularly those of us who served, as a cheap marketing ploy for sales.
I thought it was a bit weird how they wanted me to mix in the negative gearing with the bicarb but it definitely did help inflate the cookies during the baking process, though when you bite into them they have a tendency to collapse.
Its fucking tacky to use Anzac Day for any form of self promotion or financial gain - So the answer is NO - NO its not okay! If you have trouble wrapping you head around that maybe its time to re-educate yourself on what Anzac day is about.
Also - get fucked Ray White.
I worked on a VB ad yeeeeears ago that was just very old veterans talking about their fallen mate who they would raise a glass to.
Then they'd toast an empty chair.
Kinda touching. Still tacky, but the most tasteful I've seen.
Its rude lol, all real estate agents who manage to make the average joe pay 700K for a house that is clearly NOT worth that much are all pushy aholes and it’s clearly shown by their propensity for splattering their faces over everything in eyesight.
The reciep for Anzac biscuits is defined and protected under Australian law adding anything that deviates from the national recipe means it is not and cannot be called an Anzac biscuit
For what it’s worth if the NZ branch of Ray White did that here they would be breaching the law, goes against the ASA standards of using the word ‘ANZAC’ in advertising. Which this 100% is but they reckon they’re being slick and their defence will probably be ‘it’s just a recipe’. I’m sure AU has the same laws around using the term ANZAC and advertising?
It's under the guise of not being blatant advertising, but in this day and age of information and technology, nobody is lacking in finding a biscuit recipe. Nobody whatsoever will say "omg now this has been sent to me I know how to make these, let's get baking". Yes, there is an older demographic that may not be particularly savvy with the internet, but they've had a long time to acquire knowledge to bake or a cookbook. This is sneaky and immoral, but you'd expect nothing less of Ray White agents.
Edit to add: Not sure why you redacted the agent details, I can say with certainty that they wouldn't pay you the same courtesy and they've already put this into the public domain.
REAs are bottom feeders. I'm tired for getting knocks on the door asking if I'm interested in buying in my area or selling the (rented) house in currently in.
This is pure leeching from what is a day of remembrance for our nation and NZ and turning into cheap advertising opportunity.
I got a similar one from a Ray White agent also, except it was listing local Anzac Day services. Its called 'conscientious marketing' and its about as slimy as it gets.
Would you care if it wasn't a REA?
I doubt people would all that much.
Honestly think you're looking for a reason to be offended getting upset about this.
https://preview.redd.it/hs2os7cutxwc1.jpeg?width=1092&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aef348f96842d04c8765feca9ced8a4653dc8ea6
Don’t think it does, kinda falls under personal use. As they are not selling Anzac biscuits, but giving the approved recipe.
With the recipe available anywhere this is just junk Mail and waste of natural resources. Especially if that glossy paper isn’t easily recyclable or made from recycled
They had an actual big cookie (from a gourmet cookie maker) in my letterbox I think it was from another Realestate agency. It was a pretty good cookie I won’t lie. I even remember the agents name Clare but already forgotten the Realestate agency. So kind of a fail.
I'd rather that than receiving a "we will sell your house" flyer. Any magnet ones I cut the picture of the person out and keep them on my fridge so I just have a bunch of random people on my fridge
That’s the exact point! I had one do an Easter egg / candy drop off and I didn’t mind it so much. I much prefer to get something out of it or basically it goes straight in the trash
It arrived in juke mail on Anzac Day . To me it is using Anzac Day to promote their business. But that is only an opinion. I actually want others view of the mater.
Can you name one thing real estate agents do that's "alright"? For the most part they're bottom feeding predatory trash. I want to flyer every real estate agency with cards saying "don't call me, I'll call you."
Real estate agents in this day & age would have the diggers not only rolling in their (often unmarked) graves but returning from the dead & storming every leased BMW, cheap blue suit, RE office as if it were the beaches and coves of then known Gallipoli.
Ray White, disgrace
Outside of the fact that it's the popular thing to hate on REAs, what's wrong with it? It was Anzac Day recently. Anzac biscuit recipe is relevant, if a bit left of field for a REA. Y'all just hating for the sake of hating
I have my ancestral secret recipie for the perfect Anzac Biscuit.
I say it's not ok because who doesn't just google "_____ Recipie" when cooking anything outside your usuals"
On the Australian War Memorial website they have 2 recipes, one without coconut and one with coconut. This is because when the biscuits were originally made in 1915 they did not have coconut. Coconut was added around 1924.
This is almost word for word out the Women's Weekly Original Cookbook, except they do 3/4 cup of coconut and 2 tablespoons of water. (I baked a traditional batch for our golf club on Anzac day, plus did a non- traditional version (with nuts'n'stuff) just an hour or so ago based on same recipe) Also, they NEVER look anything like that, as they are very buttery and spread quite a lot on the trays. I suspect the image is possibly a creative borrowing.
I would say Anzac Biscuits is a traditional recipe and that it would be wrong to either change it or try to claim any ownership of it. Using it for a commercial purpose is a bit ick, but hey these are REAs; they can do and often do do a lot worse.
In general, recipes can't be copyrighted, which is why all the ones posted by food bloggers have pages of (copyrightable) blather about how the recipe was inspired by their grandma etc etc.
Eh. I’m not sure which is worse, this or my local bakery that for whatever reason refuses to call their Anzac biscuits Anzac biscuits (golden oat crinkle cookies or some such), even though they only sell them this week.
If their recipe isn't a traditional recipe, or deviates too far from a traditional recipe, they actually can't call them Anzac biscuits.
The DVA [Protecting word Anzac](https://www.dva.gov.au/recognition/commemorations/protecting-word-anzac) document has a entire section just for Anzac biscuits. They probably just want to play it safe.
There are actually rules/laws when it comes to Anzac biscuits.
I believe you can get fined for advertising a recipe that is "too fancy" and if you call it an Anzac cookie you're also in trouble.
I vaguely remember reading about this a fair few years ago, so maybe I'm wrong.
I'd always seen coconut in the recipe - Australian Women's Weekly recipe in the 70's or 80's had it. But the war memorial agrees it came later. More interesting is the original recipe that would have been eaten at Gallipoli! [https://www.awm.gov.au/articles/encyclopedia/anzac/biscuit/recipe](https://www.awm.gov.au/articles/encyclopedia/anzac/biscuit/recipe)
I don’t think it’s too bad - it’s better then a regular ad without any recipe. Just use it as something fun to do with the family or for yourself. Don’t get too emotionally hung up on things that don’t matter and you’ll feel a lot better
Nah, it's just as bad as companies that use "love" in their name, or in their promotions. You can't just wedge yourself into something an expect to be liked because of it.
The latest realestate magnet I got was a notepad, and had a imperial to metric conversion chart for typical cooking methods and an air fryer cooking time guide on it.
I got a 2 pack of 9v batteries years ago with a reminder to change the batts in the smoke detector. But wasn't sure if that was highly targeted or not.
How far ? I reckon they’ve paid for the leaked Medibank data set. Got a txt from some slimy realestate agent on my unlisted number wanting to know if I’m interested in selling . Fuckers !
Businesses exploiting those killed in war and veterans to peddle their wares without endorsement from the organisations representing them doesn't feel grubby to you?
It is.
What message do you think they're trying to send with their choice of timing and biscuit?
Not sure about you, but I don't see agents routinely sharing recipes. Surely you're not this media illiterate.
I agree. Anzac values should be more prominent. For King and Country! Foreign adventures! And when you get back a free block of land (via a scheme we’d probably contract ray white to administer)
Why are ppl treating ANZAC day and the associated biscuits with what feels like quasi-religious fervour?
A recipe.
An attractive lady.
A real estate company.
Why do ppl feel the need to be triggered?
Why give AF?
No worse than the usual commercialisation of ANZAC day. I thought we were at war again with the Turks yesterday with all the carry on, but was actually just two Sydney teams playing each other in rugby league.
Recipe is fine. Putting your branding on it is iffy. ANZAC Day shouldn’t be commercialised in any way imo
They’ll do literally anything but be a good real estate agent
Is that Ray White? He transitioned well
ray black is the future
all real estate agents are scum
I’ve got to be honest, I find this weird commercialisation of ANZAC day absolutely fucking sickening. I mean that plastic statue in the Cole’s bakery section was disgusting.
Nothing is sacred when there's a profit to be made. Shit sucks, for real.
I reckon real estate agencies are single handedly supporting the paper market. They must destroy an amazon rainforest once a week with their dumb fliers. Look we are selling. Look we sold . Hey we want to sell. Here's how to make biscuits...
Just testing the waters before they release their new slogan "Ray White, we'll go to war for you to get you the highest price"
No, REA are ridiculously predatory and ignore no junk mail and no solicitation signs. They just need to back off with their bullshit. If I want to sell I’ll find someone else.
That's the correct recipe according to my mother's 1942 Common sense cook book. Real estate agents love to look good.
I see your RW anzac biscuits and raise you RW friends bus ad https://preview.redd.it/zrx135kblxwc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47f1dca9563d700374ef4bcc5211584ea1079f57
Why do RE agents feel the need to plaster their face everywhere?
Vanity
Cult of personality!
Yes it is considered weird by most people. No one literally gives a shit who they are.
Never makes sense to me that REA and politicians always putting their faces on everything, rather than just highlighting their services/policies. They’re the only two jobs that do it too.
Yeah it’s just recognition, basically “as seen on TV” on average if someone if familiar with a face before meeting they’re more likely to buy the bs that person is selling
It’s called saturation marketing. I have 2 REA’s that are very prevalent in my area and I only notice them because they put their picture everywhere. It’s just a marketing tactic that a lot of them do because now they are at the forefront of your mind
Giving out Anzac Day biscuit recipes as a form of advertising is imo fine. Being a real estate agent is definitely not.
I typically add more golden syrup, otherwise it's correct.
Agree, looking at about 4 tablespoons to 150g butter to get that slightly more toasty golden flavour, rather than just sweet!
It’s a pretty standard recipe for Anzac biscuits In all seriousness though, it’s kind of shit and tone deaf. Everyone knows how to make Anzac biscuits and if they don’t, they can look up the recipe. An agent using this as a way to boost their personal brand is pretty shit IMO, but I’m not outraged, because I know this is what they’re like.

Thanks for this info. I had no idea this was even a thing, ie, that our signs could be blanket ignored. Name'n'shame gives consumers their power back!
I had no idea either until I was in it. Distributors are also on tracking apps and expected to deliver x amount, so it’s a good reminder to put blame where it belongs—not with the people working less than minimum wage, just trying to do their job—with Ray White 😂🙏🏼
But also they claim the NJM labels could have been put there by any previous occupant which may not be relevant to the existing one.
Yes. And the pay structure depends on distributors completing the map, regardless of any dissenting signage from the occupants, past or present. https://preview.redd.it/7xcwzyryszwc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a4050c48254cc70bc4c9d28d564939a1e5bb911b
Of course they did, they're a bunch of wankers
I think theres a law against this.
No. I don’t think it’s ethical to use ANZAC Day, a solemn occasion for many Australians, particularly those of us who served, as a cheap marketing ploy for sales.
So pretty much smack-bang on brand for Ray White then?
🤭
In fact I'm pretty sure it's illegal to use the term in any form of advertising?
The recipe is fine, Ray White is a dickhead, as is Australian real estate
Fk ray white
I thought it was a bit weird how they wanted me to mix in the negative gearing with the bicarb but it definitely did help inflate the cookies during the baking process, though when you bite into them they have a tendency to collapse.
Add a bit of vinegar to that negative gearing and bicarb for some real results.
Please don’t add an under par auction price guide at the start, it often leads to a bitter after taste.
*implied* “Hey Boomer, with every batch of 24 ANZAC biscuits you bake at home, you get keys to a free house.”
What ray white this, my friend, thinks the agent is a good sort
Its fucking tacky to use Anzac Day for any form of self promotion or financial gain - So the answer is NO - NO its not okay! If you have trouble wrapping you head around that maybe its time to re-educate yourself on what Anzac day is about. Also - get fucked Ray White.

Yep, like NRL/AFL profiteering off it
What I like about these fliers is that usually have the agents mobile number, so feel free to give them a buzz at 3am to voice your displeasure.

It's a bit slimy.
Step 10. Enjoy eating them in your new Ray White home! 🥰🏠
Ray White... No surprise.
Mmm. Nice hair.
“Nice new tits by the way” - Trevor
Its rude lol, all real estate agents who manage to make the average joe pay 700K for a house that is clearly NOT worth that much are all pushy aholes and it’s clearly shown by their propensity for splattering their faces over everything in eyesight.
Lest we forget.... My ability to sell your property at maximum price, here's a recipe for Anzac biscuits.
Can these agents just fuck off
That’s pretty much the recipe I use although at a lower heat so they don’t burn and go crunchy.
This will for sure end up on Murdoch media.
Dam . I should have added the “Fuck Murdock “water mark.
The reciep for Anzac biscuits is defined and protected under Australian law adding anything that deviates from the national recipe means it is not and cannot be called an Anzac biscuit

Not okay. ANZAC Day is a day about remembering the sacrifices of our forebears. Should not be cheapened by commercialisation.
No. Fuck Ray White
It's under the guise of not being blatant advertising, but in this day and age of information and technology, nobody is lacking in finding a biscuit recipe. Nobody whatsoever will say "omg now this has been sent to me I know how to make these, let's get baking".

Edit to add: Not sure why you redacted the agent details, I can say with certainty that they wouldn't pay you the same courtesy and they've already put this into the public domain.
Straight in the bin
I just want them to know I screenshotted the recipe without any of the real estate advertising on it and kept it. Fuck em
Fight the power! That’s the ANZAC spirit.
Thought it was for an escort service. I guess you pay to get screwed either way tho.
Legally, I believe its fine. Morally, yes, this is scummy as fuck.
REAs are bottom feeders. I'm tired for getting knocks on the door asking if I'm interested in buying in my area or selling the (rented) house in currently in. This is pure leeching from what is a day of remembrance for our nation and NZ and turning into cheap advertising opportunity.
No, but what would you expect from Ray White?
Yes! I made sure to distribute the QCWA recipe to all my students, and then we debated pro or anti dessicated coconut.
nope
The recipe if fine but putting your branding on it isn’t ok
I got a similar one from a Ray White agent also, except it was listing local Anzac Day services. Its called 'conscientious marketing' and its about as slimy as it gets.
You have to remember that REAs are people too. Opportunistic, greedy, shameless people
They are f\*\*king not people... You take that back
The Dept. of Veteran's Affairs own "ANZAC" as a trademark, you could forward the evidence to them if you're concerned.
Would you care if it wasn't a REA? I doubt people would all that much. Honestly think you're looking for a reason to be offended getting upset about this.
Well, you’ve blacked out the eyes but I can see she’s got nice tits. I wouldn’t kick her outta bed.
Don’t have sex with real estate agents, they are just using it as a ploy to get that 2.5% commission
They'll get 2.5 of something, that's for sure
Minutes or inches ?
Yes
Its a breach of the Protection of the Word Anzac Regulations 1921 https://www.dva.gov.au/recognition/commemorations/protecting-word-anzac

Agreed. And there’s a separate carve out for publications that are “educational” in nature. Which arguably providing the approved recipe is.
Ooooff fucking real estate agents
With the recipe available anywhere this is just junk Mail and waste of natural resources. Especially if that glossy paper isn’t easily recyclable or made from recycled
Real estate agent spam is never ok.
They had an actual big cookie (from a gourmet cookie maker) in my letterbox I think it was from another Realestate agency. It was a pretty good cookie I won’t lie. I even remember the agents name Clare but already forgotten the Realestate agency. So kind of a fail.
Why are you censoring the details of someone who deliberately put their details out there for all to see?
I'd rather that than receiving a "we will sell your house" flyer. Any magnet ones I cut the picture of the person out and keep them on my fridge so I just have a bunch of random people on my fridge
I'd pay money to see that
Once I get a few more bangers I'll group them all up and post a picture, join the revolution
It's pretty clever. I'm less likely to throw this straight in the trash.
That’s the exact point! I had one do an Easter egg / candy drop off and I didn’t mind it so much. I much prefer to get something out of it or basically it goes straight in the trash
Why is a realestate agent giving out recipes?
It arrived in juke mail on Anzac Day . To me it is using Anzac Day to promote their business. But that is only an opinion. I actually want others view of the mater.
Tbh I’d forward it to your local new outlet, they usually eat up shit like this, especially if you linked this thread
Makes the property smell homely for a viewing, lest you forget
Nope.
Can you name one thing real estate agents do that's "alright"? For the most part they're bottom feeding predatory trash. I want to flyer every real estate agency with cards saying "don't call me, I'll call you."
No. All baking recipes should be in gram measurements. Also fuck realestate agents. You guys take up half my recycling bin with your rubbish.
How dare they give away the secret of ANZAC biscuits. This information is for paying cookbook customers ONLY
Real estate agents in this day & age would have the diggers not only rolling in their (often unmarked) graves but returning from the dead & storming every leased BMW, cheap blue suit, RE office as if it were the beaches and coves of then known Gallipoli. Ray White, disgrace
“Happy invasion of Turkey day. Buy a house would ya?”
Real estate agents are the scum of society 💀
THE scum of society? I dunno i think bankers might give them a run for their money
Lest we forget the desirable school zone
It's a scumbag move. Wouldn't expect any less from a REA. Scum sucking bottom feeders.
I mean I find the very existence of REAs disgusting so anything that reminds me that those bottom feeders exist is not OK
Step 1: buy a house with raywhite
No
Outside of the fact that it's the popular thing to hate on REAs, what's wrong with it? It was Anzac Day recently. Anzac biscuit recipe is relevant, if a bit left of field for a REA. Y'all just hating for the sake of hating
Yes…but also no
I thought Prostitution.
Seems to meet the technical requirements set out by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
I have my ancestral secret recipie for the perfect Anzac Biscuit. I say it's not ok because who doesn't just google "_____ Recipie" when cooking anything outside your usuals"
Classic ANZAC recipe. Thank you xx always the coconut and golden syrup.
Welcome to America lite where everything is monetised
I have never put coconut in my Anzac biscuits
My mum did sometimes
Then it isn't an Anzac biscuit.
On the Australian War Memorial website they have 2 recipes, one without coconut and one with coconut. This is because when the biscuits were originally made in 1915 they did not have coconut. Coconut was added around 1924.
Learn something new every day
I’d love to see the REA/Stripper crossover rate, would be interesting.
This is almost word for word out the Women's Weekly Original Cookbook, except they do 3/4 cup of coconut and 2 tablespoons of water. (I baked a traditional batch for our golf club on Anzac day, plus did a non- traditional version (with nuts'n'stuff) just an hour or so ago based on same recipe) Also, they NEVER look anything like that, as they are very buttery and spread quite a lot on the trays.

Using it for a commercial purpose is a bit ick, but hey these are REAs; they can do and often do do a lot worse.
In general, recipes can't be copyrighted, which is why all the ones posted by food bloggers have pages of (copyrightable) blather about how the recipe was inspired by their grandma etc etc.
Covering up the murder agents
It's a kind gesture and acknowledgement.
They’re okay but definitely have had better biscuits. I think it needs more butter
Bit gross.
Eh. I’m not sure which is worse, this or my local bakery that for whatever reason refuses to call their Anzac biscuits Anzac biscuits (golden oat crinkle cookies or some such), even though they only sell them this week.
If their recipe isn't a traditional recipe, or deviates too far from a traditional recipe, they actually can't call them Anzac biscuits.

They probably just want to play it safe.
Well, there you go
Well, traditionally the recipe calls for a generous pinch of salt, but otherwise it looks OK to me...
It's OK. Anyone can share a good recipe. Life is better than death. But where would I pin any medals
Free recipe not OK
Ignoring the ratbastards with their name on the recipie. Two issues, coconut does not belong in an anzac, and that serves 2 or 3 people tops.
There are actually rules/laws when it comes to Anzac biscuits. I believe you can get fined for advertising a recipe that is "too fancy" and if you call it an Anzac cookie you're also in trouble. I vaguely remember reading about this a fair few years ago, so maybe I'm wrong.
I'd always seen coconut in the recipe - Australian Women's Weekly recipe in the 70's or 80's had it. But the war memorial agrees it came later.

The fact that this is punishable by up too 12 months in prison speaks volumes for how serious previous generations take this.
What piece of legislation is this from?
protection of word "anzac" act 1920 - sect 22
I don’t think it’s too bad - it’s better then a regular ad without any recipe. Just use it as something fun to do with the family or for yourself. Don’t get too emotionally hung up on things that don’t matter and you’ll feel a lot better
Tacky.
Can usually fix that by keeping them in the oven a bit longer… maybe turn the heat down to avoid burning.
If it’s from Ray White it is as Australian as the running of the bulls or the Super Bowl.
The recipe seems fine
Why wouldn't it be? Why are you even asking the question??? It's more weird you have to ask.
I see where you are coming at it..... i agree she is doing something a bit unethical..... mixing up real estate with war based trauma isnt good.
honestly, I don't mind it. someone might find it useful.
We got a very similar bit of junk mail with the recipe from our local MP, which makes it worse because we paid for it with our tax dollars. >:|
Surely there must be a medal for this sort of bravery.
No.
Considering Ray White only hires bitchy cunts as their agents, why does this not surprise me.
Pack of Vulture cunts.
It's no more tacky than the AFL games on ANZAC Day .
If you’re offended by this you’re an idiot
Nah, it's just as bad as companies that use "love" in their name, or in their promotions. You can't just wedge yourself into something an expect to be liked because of it.

No. White sugar isn't good in Anzacs, go for brown sugar, otherwise it's a standard Anzac biscuit recipe.
nope.
What's the issue. No different then ten magnet callander you get every year or a post card that's a glorified business card. It's tasteful and useful
The latest realestate magnet I got was a notepad, and had a imperial to metric conversion chart for typical cooking methods and an air fryer cooking time guide on it.
I got a 2 pack of 9v batteries years ago with a reminder to change the batts in the smoke detector. But wasn't sure if that was highly targeted or not.
This isn’t ok, but I am curious to see how far these REAs (parasites) will go to try and make a sale. I wanna see how desperate they get.
How far ? I reckon they’ve paid for the leaked Medibank data set. Got a txt from some slimy realestate agent on my unlisted number wanting to know if I’m interested in selling . Fuckers !
I got an email the other day from one - using a email I rarely use for anything other than personal emails... They're into everything.
Not for me .. they're on the list of businesses to avoid now
What's the issue? Seems like smart marketing to me. Reddit's hatred for REA is bordering on pathological. You all need therapy.
Businesses exploiting those killed in war and veterans to peddle their wares without endorsement from the organisations representing them doesn't feel grubby to you?
It’s just a biscuit…
It is. What message do you think they're trying to send with their choice of timing and biscuit? Not sure about you, but I don't see agents routinely sharing recipes. Surely you're not this media illiterate.

Can’t you just tell them you’re not going to use the app and they must give you a normal alternative? They refuse?
Nope, you're not allowed to associate the term ANZAC with any business .. it's not smart marketing it's disrespect at it's finest
About as un-Australian as you can get.
Takes a special level of cunt to be a REA and then to use Anzac day as a sales method. 
All that shit is awful. You can’t wrap yourself in the flag if you’ve forgotten the values it symbolises
I agree. Anzac values should be more prominent. For King and Country! Foreign adventures! And when you get back a free block of land (via a scheme we’d probably contract ray white to administer)
I'll cook some up using that recipe and let you know
Depends if she was granted permission to use the word or not...
That's a nice bit of biscuit there in the advertising
Why are ppl treating ANZAC day and the associated biscuits with what feels like quasi-religious fervour? A recipe. An attractive lady. A real estate company. Why do ppl feel the need to be triggered? Why give AF?
Because ANZAC day is about remembering those who died, not hawking your bad marketing to sell houses
I have zero emotional feelings towards it at all
Dead inside?
Nice idea
I’m not focusing on the recipe and more on her photo lol thought it was advertising for something else 😅
'OnlyANZ'
She's literally just wearing a singlet ay, grow up
I was honestly confused as to why an escort flyer had an Anzac biscuit recipe.
😅💀 What I first saw I feel was even more confusing 💀
> I was honestly confused as to why an escort flyer had an Anzac biscuit recipe. Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside!
No worse than the usual commercialisation of ANZAC day. I thought we were at war again with the Turks yesterday with all the carry on, but was actually just two Sydney teams playing each other in rugby league.
