    Tragic twist: Clare Nowland's death exposes non-compliant facility post-alleged taser incident

    It is beyond belief that a police officer would use a taser on a 95 year old lady. Come on, really? What a big brave policeman. I hope he has the book thrown at him and of course dismissed from the force. We do NOT need people like him 'protecting' us thanks.

    This thrifty mum's ALDI trolley tip is a game-changer for forgetful shoppers

    Years ago I bought one of Aldi's tokens, it's on the keyring with my car keys so always have it. I often only shop with my car keys in hand and a credit card, no purse, so find this is definitely easier than looking for any change.

    I'm with you in that I will only purchase food grown and produced in Australia, but when it comes to clothes unfortunately I mostly cannot afford to buy Australian as the products are so overpriced. Thank God for KMart, Target, Op Shops who help out with the clothing price dilemma.

A real...
