    The Harris Farm pricing puzzle that's got shoppers talking: Fair deal or clever marketing?

    Just another opportunity for a self-absorbed influencer putting her face squarely in the frame - not to complain about the practice but to have their moment in the sun. Of course the price is the same for the single item - this is so much fairer that Coles & Woolies 2fer prices with a penalty...

    You have only hours left to weigh in on this proposed change across rural Australia. What's about to happen?

    What is the point of introducing this ridiculous rule if the states have the prerogative to amend it to their preferred speed? What a bloody waste of money again by this inept government who wouldn't know if their asses were on fire.

    Another pollie in the Pauline mold. Can't get enough of them - genuine people who call a spade a spade - get well Jacquie and hope to see you back soon.

    AI is using your data to set personalised prices online. It could seriously backfire

    Been happening for years even with domestic airfares. They lock onto cookies and change the price after you have checked.

    The quirky Aussie birthday song that’s got everyone talking again

    Whatever - keep up the traditions by making sure the grandkids are educated in these things. My two (22 & 19) cannot keep a straight face when we tell them stories of yesteryear and our funny traditions and sayings, this way they are not taking life too seriously and maintain a sense of humour. 😂😂😂

    Gone after 79 years—this Aussie favourite won’t be on shelves anymore

    Noooooooooo! Where do I go for my green tomato pickles - I no longer make my own as Spring Gully was just beautiful as was their mustard pickles and onions. I guess over next week I will be visiting every Coles and Woolies on the Gold Coast trying to stock up on these items. So sorry this has...

    From stages to speedways: Fans say goodbye to two figures who left their mark in history

    Gary Rogers" sense of humour was unparalled - always the larrikin and clown, happy to have a laugh but seriously embedded in the motor sport world. He had a knack for spotting talent right from entry level motor sports and nurtured this talent. He was already missed when rule changes within the...

    We are both on the same telephone line with this one.

    Social media promotion of raw milk 'misleading and dangerous'

    I grew up on a farm and we had our own jersey cow but how I hated the taste of the raw milk! My brother was like a calf and could not get enough of it. Made lots of butter in a churner from the heavy cream and still could not tolerate the taste. Fast forward to move into town with pasteurised...

    The reason being that everything was fresh and you knew who had handled it.

    Social media promotion of raw milk 'misleading and dangerous'

    Hard to have faith in what he says - medical degree? Any sort of education? No just his opinion which he spruiks to his wellness clients. Does he give them the bath milk to drink after he has his bath in it???? Scary that this "new age" guru is in a position to influence people - oh no - he is...

    The great Aussie retail shake-up: When bargain hunting comes at a hidden cost

    The problem with these "Australian" brands is that they were taken over by a behemoth company who greedily gobbed up all and sundry and then could not sustain the sales to justify the prices paid for these competitors. A case of gluttony if ever there was one - too bad for their shareholders...

    The great Aussie retail shake-up: When bargain hunting comes at a hidden cost

    Same here - but we had Grace Bros (now Myer) in country NSW and I still can see in my mind a couple of the items we ordered by mail when I was pre-teen. A very special nostalgic memory.
