    Don't make this mistake on your next flight! Here’s where you should never stand on a plane

    I think it s a shame that people need to be told these things. it should be common sense and simple curtesy.... but nowadays people have lost most social skills and are all "entitled". I was lucky enough to grow up with a grandfather who was very well off, having a cook, a housekeeper for...

    Is this Australia’s ‘best supermarket’? Take a look and decide for yourself!

    They claim it s all new andconvenient, so Coles can charge more. But a lot of these "new ways" are how it was long time ago! maybe before they were born, so it s all new to them! And yes, we couldn't get a coffee or a freshly made Pizza in the super market, but I prefer to go to a coffee shop...

    The rise of taxidermy rates: Would you be willing to keep your pet with you forever?

    I do t have a nice big garden, so while my birds were buried in a big pot plant (mandarin tree), the dogs have been cremated and their ashes are sitting in nice wooden boxes in my place. Taxidermie freaks me out!!!

    Coles & Woolies shoppers spot ANOTHER price gaffe!

    People are split on this shopper’s ‘easy-to-miss’ discovery on a tray of butcher steaks

    I ve sometimes come across wrongly marked things. it s only human to make mistakes. I usually point it out to the staff, and so far I always got it to the reduced price, but they then rushed to fix the mistake to cut their losses. I used to work in retail during uni, and we had to pay for such...

    This little-known road rule could cost you a $600 fine

    I suppose it also depends on what you eat or drink! A sandwich(apple/biscuit in one hand doesnt mean you have to take the eyes of the road, a sip of water (as long as you dont have to unscrew a bottle!) should also be ok. But spooning something up (like Yoghurt or Cereals), worrying it might end...
