We have 1 hours help every fortnight. We pay $11 for this service. I was interested that someone said it was free if you are on a full pension. I have to agree that Australia is stagnating under red tape. Even these senior government services are hard to navigate and understand.

Haven't been able to buy a favourite biscuit "Jaffa Cakes" from local Aldi also litre cartons of long life skim milk!

Those out of work are really the ones doing it especially tough. How they manage to pay rent, buy food and go for job interviews I can't imagine.

I really like Aldi's Dark Rye bread. Makes lovely toast. Because I have bouts of diverticulitis I avoid seeded bread.

I applied and know that I am more than capable to fill one of these roles but have had no reply. Courtesy would be nice.

Would go up in my rankings, if every now and again, I could find a staff member, who knows what they are talking about, to help me.

Was he really a "dangerous" prisoner? I have only read that he had numerous vehicle offences. Also didn't he hand himself in when he saw his picture in the media? Am I reading different news?

You actually have difficulty speaking to the head office of a bank. I was kept waiting on the other end of the phone for over 2 hours. Finally a real person to talk to after all that time only to be cut off. The banks are closing branches and the few that remain open often have long lines of...

I feel sorry for young Australians but David Koch don't think for one minute that we older folks haven't, in our youth, gone through the same hardships. My parents and my husbands parents struggled to make ends meet. We did too in our younger years.

Can you buy cheese tortellini in regular supermarkets? I have never seen it.

Many dog toys now have squeaky things inside. My little dachshund absolutely pulls her toys to bits. I have been concerned that she may swallow the small part, so I don't buy those any more.

Coles should give discounts. I bought a Mrs H S Balls chutney in Coles yesterday for over $6 and Aldi will have it in store on Dec 27th for $3.99. Not surprising they are making huge profits from those who are struggling.

Sounds like a Vegan plot to me. I come from a family of butchers. We have eaten meat all our lives as indeed our ancestors did. Never in excess, but I am80 and my husband 83, who was also a butcher, and we have surprised doctors how healthy we are for our age.

When you put a T beside an amount I presume this is a tablespoon?

Never found it very easy to find or get help in Bunnings. Finding a team member is difficult.

I believe protein is the answer with less carbs. A geriatric brain specialist my husband has just visited said that our brains are protein so as we get older and to avoid the dreaded dementia maybe protein is the answer. I love potatoes though!!!

Medical practitioners tell older people to keep warm in winter and to stay cool in summer. How are we supposed to do this with power so expensive even with pensioner discounts.

How boring her regime is! I believe that the French drink wine, have lots of butter and cheese, eat creamy desserts, bread and still manage to have low heart disease and stay slim. Small portions of everything I think is the answer.

Kids love slightly 'naughty' things. I am a great grandmother and in my day this might have been 'shocking' but now books are written about 'snot' and 'farting' and 'poop'. Not a problem.

Sounds good, but can someone tell me how I can access the pictures that show below the Senior Discount site. I click on ones that interest me but nothing happens.
