    ALDI's delivery revolution arrives: Your budget groceries now come to your door

    Some people might need this, but personally I'd rather do my own collection and delivery 🙂 Whenever I see the people getting the deliveries ready in my local Woolies they don't care about checking dates or how fresh something is. I can spend 5 minutes checking dates and freshness.😁 The only...

    New roadside cameras could catch you anytime, anywhere

    "For older Australians, however, the transition from occasional enforcement to continuous monitoring marked a fundamental shift in the driving experience." Why should it make any difference to older Australians "driving experience"?:rolleyes: They've seen cameras by the road before.

    Cafe sparks cashless controversy—but relief is coming for cash-loving seniors

    A fuss about nothing again🙄 If you went there and put your card in the card reader you don't get charged anything, but people would rather get angry when they see they charge a very low 1.2%🙄 If you spent about $50 and just tapped your card the surcharge is only 60c. The Government is supposed...

    Credit card perks under threat as regulators eye changes to payment rules

    When retail strategy meets social media gold: The Officeworks controversial starter kit that had Australia laughing

    Well done SDC👏👏 That was really really not funny!!🙄 And once you see it's something on tiktok you know it's going to be some nonsense.🙄 They seem to have a weird way of trying to link items on here. In this case an unfunny video merging into an article about product placement.🤔

    How to outsmart a burglar…from an ex-burglar’s perspective

    All that would be very interesting for the UK. Rightmove and Zoopla are 99.9% biased towards UK home listings with a small section for overseas properties. If you want to check Australian properties you need to look at Domain and Rightmove. And the part that says "Install letterbox cages to...

    I've been with Exetel 6 years. While this hasn't affected me. I'm more concerned about the slow speeds I'm getting😕 I'll be leaving them for that reason.
