This would have been easier to read & understand if each section had been broken down into its own article. It started out with the problem of being able to use the basic tools found in a kitchen & ended up (where I stopped reading) with banking apps. Now let's discuss the usability or...

The ants probably went underground also & would have survived. Now the echidnas just have to find their hiding places.

I do wish you would stop with these over-the-top headlines. Australia is not heartbroken over the death of this person. His family will be & my condolences to them but for the rest of us, most have never heard of him.

Stop panicking. Unless you have a really large bank balance (which most of us don't have) then your pension is safe.

How can you still be on a carer's payment if you are no longer caring for your father? That should have ceased when he passed away. I ceased receiving carer's payment when my mother was admitted to a nursing home as I was no longer caring for her & therefore was not entitled to this payment.

Although it's a dream of many that this is true but when did Trump become FORMER US President Donald Trump? The world would be much better off if he was "former".

Would you like to rewrite this in English that makes sense?

I will never do online banking. That is the easiest way for scammers to access your bank a/c & steal your money & you have no idea they have done that until you go shopping again & your card is rejected due to lack of funds. I also don't understand apps or how to add them to my phone & have no...

Our local op shop has a minimum spend of $10 to use a card. Otherwise, use cash. This keeps cash in the market place & saves the fees for the op shop

I stated a fact & did not call you or anyone else names. Get your facts right before having a go at me.

No one, & I mean NO ONE, uses the f word to me & gets away with it. It is highly offensive & totally unnecessary. Learn to use the available adjectives in the English language to express your thoughts & feelings. This cop was on an ego trip because he saw someone do something stupid on the...

It makes no difference whether you put your card in (whatever that really means) or tap. The charge has been added before I put my card anywhere near the machine. As a pensioner I cannot afford these rip-off charges so I either find another business which doesn't charge for card use or else I...

Banks already check your spending using a card to determine your suitability for a loan. You think that there will not be other checks by govt etc as we are forced into this change?

Lucky you to be able to afford to buy at regular price; and also to be able to go to the shops whenever you want without having to drive nearly 50km each way. So, buying in bulk & freezing is the best option for many of us. Even before I moved to a small country town & lived in a large...

Has this guy never heard of a freezer? As a person living alone it is much more expensive to buy just enough meat for 1 meal instead of buying enough for several meals & then freezing what you don't need for that night/day. When I see any meat on special I buy what I can afford that week, pack...
