    If I was with Macquarie, The first thing I would be doing is closing my account and withdrawing all of the money in cash before the deadline. Becoming a cashless society is completely up to us, the consumer. Start paying everything i cash. Nothing is going to change unless we change it because...

    Changes are coming: Find out why past The Block stars say this year's rules will be a 'walk in the park'

    Over the years the Block has outgrown reality. I would love to see the contestants having to renovate on a smaller budget so the viewers can actually learn something from the show. The average Blow Joe would not be able to finance such an outrageous budget to start with. Another thing I would...

    Score BIG savings! Woolworths offers new 10% off deal for Everyday Rewards members!

    I use woollies pre paid. Love it but it does not accumulate points. Also the 10% off is taken from your rewards points so you don’t get anything for nothing. Coles is the same. It comes off your flybuys points. The staff are told not to tell you this unless you ask!! Sneaky!!

    Millions of Aussies affected: How the new changes to your JobSeeker welfare payments could impact you

    Very well said. I was told I should have prepared years ago for a rental crisis. Little do they realise that low income earners do try and save for a rainy day but once those savings are gone, where to next? Hang in there those who are struggling and to those who are quick to condemn, don’t be...

    JobSeeker base rate hike announced to address inflationary pressures

    The reason there are so many people on unemployment is because the government is too soft. They need to put a stop to these lazy long term bums who have no reported income from taking advantage of the system. Make it harder for them. Bring in the card for all those who don’t do any paid work at...

    Shopper slams Vinnies for selling second-hand jacket for $75

    As a person who works in an Op Shop, I totally agree that Vinnies and the Salvos ( the one called Salvos family store which is in fact run by Coles) are definitely the most expensive and do price gouge. The store I work in have always been cheaper by far. For a start we have a generic price for...

    Is the financial crisis finally ending? Signs pointing to lower living costs

    The saying “ what goes up must come down” is a fallacy!!! Too much profit being made. Besides, hasn’t the US just been given approval to print and exorbitant amount of money to throw into the economy?!! They certainly are not a good example to follow!!!!

    Will the Coles milk buyout affect farmers and upend the market?

    We should not have to pay 10c more!! These huge companies such as Coles need to pay all farmers the correct amount for the products. They are all just in it for the profit regardless of who they stomp on to get it. The government needs to step in and change the rules so that farmers get their...

    Social media erupts as wealthy 88-year-old widow asks for pension support

    It would be nice if everyone got a pension but in life not all is equal. If you have worked hard and contributed through taxes then yes to the pension BUT if you have a lot of assets (like Pollies) and are not wanting, them no, that’s just being greedy. The more some people have, unfortunately...

    Love it. Can you just imagine what would happen if all Telstra customers did this at the same time. What a payback!! All you Telstra customers need to think seriously of doing this. Me personally have not been with Telstra for many years as I got so peed off with their attitude and poor service...

    Driver slammed online for hogging four spots, including disabled bay, in Bunnings carpark

    Not so long ago I had to explain to a friend with a disability why it was not okay for the boss to take her for a drive to the bank so the boss could park in the disabled parking. The boss was just using her because she did not want to cruise around the car park looking for a spot which meant...
