    Woolworths trials new self-serve checkouts

    I don't care what they've done with colour coding, I never have and never will use a self serve checkout. Woolworths don't pay me to process and pack my own shopping. If they offered discounts for doing it, it might be a different matter.

    Here's why this elderly woman left her million-dollar fortune to her pets and not her children

    Good for her! Just because people are related by blood doesn't give them the right to inherit. If family members choose to ignore parents in their latter years or due to illness, then they absolutely do not deserve to be mentioned in the Will. Parents are not a benevolent society, we...

    Find out which Hungry Jack's items a nutritionist warns you should never eat!

    I don't totally agree with Suzie in that whether it's Hungry Jack's, KFC or the Golden Arches, they are all a pretty bad choice but in a pinch if I had a choice it would be Hungry Jack's, it tastes like real food not the Golden Arches cardboard 'bread' rolls and no taste meals or oily KFC

    Aussies shocked over trial beachside fee: 'Why should we have to pay?'

    That's absolutely disgusting! Next we'll have to pay for breathing fresh air. Mornington Peninsular Council has some very high end properties there and therefore the Council is reaping in hefty rates, they are just a very greedy Council forcing people to find a different beach to frequent with...

    Rural Migration Hits Five-Year Peak, Proclaimed as the 'best decision'!

    My husband and I moved from suburban Victoria to a rural property in East Gippsland 14 years ago and it was most definitely the best move we've ever made. It's so peaceful, the native birdlife and other native animals like echidna, wombats, kangaroos and wild ducks as well as deer and...

    Amid her battles with a rare disease, Celine Dion remains hopeful that she will return onstage

    This is just heartbreaking. What a strong and wonderful lady with a truly angelic voice who's brought so much happiness, love and joy to the world through her songs. I hope and pray that a medicine can be found to give a good response to this disease and that a cure can be found. God bless...

    Mum's controversial act leaves people divided: What really happened on her Coles run?

    Just because you have a tantrum throwing child who's out of your control doesn't entitle you to any special treatment like jumping the queue at the checkout or anywhere else, it's not someone else's problem, it's yours! Get over it, wait your turn then take your tantrum throwing brat home. This...

    ‘It doesn’t make sense’ Shocking update on a Cadbury price mystery sparks outrage!

    My favourite chocolate is Cadbury Dairy Milk but now can't afford to buy it so it's ALDI chocolate for me and has been for a couple of years now. What a crying shame that the supermarkets are yet again ripping it's customers off!

    Are you ready for a $40 schnitzel? Hotel boss predicts an alarming increase in your favourite meals!

    For years a group of about 10 senior citizens used to occasionally go out for lunch to different pubs and restaurants in our area offering a good Seniors' Meal at a reasonable cost but in recent times our group has discontinued this as prices have been going through the roof and none of us...

    Woolworths faces lawsuit for allegedly exploiting workers with shift changes

    Firstly, a business is entitled to run in the most efficient way choose. While I understand that doing without nightshifts that earn staff extra money could be quite difficult for those staff it should be noted that businesses are not Welfare organisations and will and must run their business...

    Shoppers furious about Kmart’s 'age-inappropriate' book

    Are you kidding? Get over it lady! What is the world coming too, seems like we are becoming far too politically correct and take offense at everything. This woman needs to wake up to herself and get a life!

    The surprising cleaning habit common women do that apparently men don’t: ‘Do you guys do this too?’

    I never do this, I just clean the room properly and to a high standard the first time therefore know it looks and smells good, no need to second guess my abilities

    Woolworths CEO speaks out on self-service checkout issue

    Mr Banducci must think we are all stupid and gullible. Hired more personal shoppers to cater for online orders? Maybe, but you can never find a staff member to help while you are navigating the aisles looking for items. And NO, I refuse to use self serve checkouts, I expect a significant...

    Coles, Woolworths, IGA and ALDI affirm stance on supermarket self-serve checkouts

    Self serve or manned checkouts, people will always complain about them or lack thereof. Personally I will NEVER use them. If the store wants me to scan and pack my own shopping instead of them paying staff to do it for me, then I want a staff discount thanks

    Are your favourite snacks and treats now considered luxuries? Here's why many Australians are dramatically cutting back!

    In theory your ideas work well, BUT having been on a Carer's Pension while my husband was alive and on the Age Pension we were able to live frugally but well with budgeting. Since he passed my income has halved but my utilities bills and rates/rent have increased, like everyone else's, I most...
