My daughter periodically helps me go through my pantry and items that I don’t need she delivers to a pantry in Newcastle for homeless people. She crochets beanies and blankets and donates them as well. We have more homeless people than I have ever seen in my 73 years. It is heartbreaking that...

Whinge whinge whinge. If you don’t want to use them then don’t. My daughters never go shopping without their own shopping bags, they both shop for me. Plastic bags were a good idea until they polluted the planet. Paper might not be as strong as plastic but it breaks down,plastic doesn’t. It’s...

A big shop definitely let the employee scan my groceries. A small amount of products I will definitely use self serve. It’s your choice so why complain.

I bought a 6l lock’n’lock container with a movable divider and keep my gluten free bread and rolls in it. I paid $20 for it and it keeps my bread fresh for over a week.

No way.

This theft has hit an all time low. I hope someone dobs those two in. Security cameras would be a start.

Aldi is my main place to shop for most of my groceries. I am gluten intolerant so have to go to Woolies or Coles for some items.

My Doctor bulk bills us because we are over 60. He works in a practice where there are 5 doctors. My eldest daughter and her husband who both have significant health issues have to pay to see their doctor,they are only 55 years old. Our youngest daughter,who is 47,has to pay also. She is our...

This woman has too much time on her hands. She also has a vivid imagination. You can see faces,animals etc in anything if you look hard enough.

It’s easy to say why didn’t she leave but from knowing people who have been in an abusive relationship it isn’t that cut and dried. It isn’t alright to take a life and that poor woman will live with that for the rest of her life. I hope she doesn’t have to spend too much time in prison because...

Why put this on social media at all. I think people just like to stir the pot.

That is ridiculous and illegal having no window. I saw a report on YouTube where a man advertised that you could pitch a tent in his backyard for $250 a week,if you wanted to use the toilet and shower it would be extra.These days helping people out comes with costs. Very sad times we are living in.

Everyone should be treated equally. Jobseeker payment should be the same for everyone who is on it. Poverty doesn’t just affect the older generation.

I did an online shop at Coles a couple of months ago and two bags of fresh produce were covered in some cleaning liquid that had leaked from someone else’s order. I rang up straight away and had the contents of both bags redelivered. Whoever packed the second order gave me produce that was...

I think it is despicable that Australians are homeless. There are a lot of homeless people in and around the area I live. People are living in tents and cars. You will never find a rental property for a $110 a week in Port Stephen. I don’t know how people are surviving after paying exorbitant...

Very disrespectful.
