If I may? I'm going to anyway :) Bit of a crack at your heading ; why "say Aussies get ....." and then add "In the face of rising expenses and the ever-tightening squeeze on household budgets, Western Australian ......... " Please; make the headline more to the point by including the state in...

Yep; we need to put more Aussie bums in seats instead hiring from overseas and from a very different driving cultures to Australia -- can causes all sorts dramas you would call bad truck driving. These days it's a good clean job for the girls (who many say are better operators) who don't want...

Not going to worry me --- as long as there are frozen vegies I'm apples I remember when that company, or similar first started packaged salads and the young bloke's father who owned the farm before him said something like , crazy idea --- people will never pay for that . The idea went on to be...

strange how us "oldies" manage to get around and live without a bloody phone in our hand all day everyday . Plan your route drive the route --- not sure; just pull over or pull off the road and check your route . Sadly that seems rocket science today . When you get a bit lost you have just...

Instead of getting 20 seconds of cyberspace fame ; why not just ask ALDI ?

So what! Likely the last bag filled and it slipped through the cracks . Just take it back and ask for another ---- if they don't give you one then maybe whinge about it. I had a similar tin of something that wasn't right ; wrote a note to the company who apologized , offered another which I...

So how else does The Salvos , and others raise the massive amount of money needed to help those needing food parcels and the other services . Just like any retail stores ; you don't have to buy a thing and you can always ask for a special price

BTW peeps ; don't forget to write down ALL your passwords to include in your will . My daughter has a back up copy of mine

Wonderful approach Bank accounts -- have you checked that will work in her favour ?

I refuse to use SCO ; "if yo don't trust me don't invite my in" No fast check out (12 items) I don't go in (to the store) ---- I go to Aldi occasionally :( I have left my shopping for them to put back on the shelf when I couldn't get service --- maybe more should do that ;)

Tips from recent and on going , and on going , and on going experience Don't rush into the funeral ; give family/friends 7-10 days or more to get themselves organizing . Try not to have too many making the same decisions --- one cleans out of the house ---- another sorts out the money ---- same...

Makes more sense than adding to the road side ''sign pollution'' ; much of which is insurance against insurance claims :( Little off topic: the best sign pollution is "new road work -- no lines -- don't over take -- slow down" and 100 mts on is "end road work" WTD!!

same goes for tooth paste --- all the adverts showing the brush is totally covered is just a "use more" trick Better clothes washing trick imo is start the wash then pause to soak for as long as you like .

(plastic) micro fiber is not good for environment . Best to use good old fashion but natural cotton

I don't use self service ! If the store invites me in to spend money they can bloody well give me a little service ! I have left a full basket and walked out when service was not available . Yep; then someone had to put it all back on the shelf while I shopped elsewhere
