their limits on their website. You can look up dimensions, weights etc of what you are supposed to take.
Sure you can get away with more sometimes but if they pull you up. Don't winge.
Australian (and others )have 20kg limit. Australian will let you get away with 25kg. Cabin bag is supposed to be no more than 7kg. Sometimes they weigh them. When buying jewellry I put it in my handbag (if I'm worried about weight).
Coming over I put all my stuff in my cabin bag and fill my suitcase with things to give away. When it's empty I start shopping. That way I can relax at the start of my trip.
