Our son struggles with his mental health and has a congenital heart condition. He often goes to the ER looking for help but they won’t provide any and just send him back home. The GP surgery that we all attend won’t treat him on Medicare as they are now called Private Surgery as are most...

I find Kman’s response as racist. I am English and have lived in Australia over 30 years. I have children and grandchildren who are Australians and I hate the way we are called poms. I am not a prison her majesty which is what Pom stands for. we paid an awful lot of money to emigrate to...

I have read woman’s weekly but never seen this product on any shelv here in the Southern Suburbs of Adelaide

I know just saw it. I thought I had put assistant

We were going through the self serve checkout when a product didn’t scan so I called the ass over and made her aware of the problem. She managed to get it to scan but then bought up all my previous scanned items, which I found confronting and made me feel like a thief. I was uncomfortable and...

I like to use Kipfler potatoes Occasionally but have flung these to be green and we all know green potatoes are poison so 9 times out of 10 these are thrown away sadly. I only wish we could get King Edward potatoes here in Adelaide. A great all rounder. This time of year potatoes do not chip...

Our local fruit and veg shop has now gone back to brown paper bags. Why they ever went to plastic bags for fruit and veg is beyond me.

So how do we get a Chinese takeaway, the one cuisine I can’t cook as well as the Chinese? They use plastic containers and a carrier bag to carry it away with. In the UK they used to use the silver cartons with a cardboard lid.

Wow $243 that’s going to go a long way. Other states get concessions on their gas bills we don’t. Also some other states get senior discounts in Coles and Woolworths again we don’t. Our state doesn’t offer much in the way of relief with the cost of living.

We recently went through Coles and I noticed that the lobster tales scanned up as $9.50 each. The deli was priced up as $8.00 which is why we picked them up. However on going to the customer service counter I was sent back to the deli for them to put a barcode on at the correct price but they...

We are always charged for a small dollop of mustard when ordering steak. We can buy a whole jar for less at any supermarket.

Absolutely correct.

I was thinking exactly the same about you “What planet do you live on” never mind I walk around with my eyes open and where I live quite a few people especially pollies have 2-3 houses, you might want to open your eyes and do the same! I can only think you don’t live in a city but the country...

Your comments are totally incorrect! Yes some of these houses are rented back but there is a great majority of people that have 3-4 or more houses to themselves. You can only live in one at a time! plus a great majority of these type of people are politicians which is why they will not do...

These so called experts are idiots! Why should seniors downsize to help solve the housing crisis? Seniors have done enough in their time to help with everything over time. There is a better solution to solving the housing crisis STOP people buying multiple homes, that would put Thousands of...
