    Gen Z’s rant about the 'unhinged' experience of shopping at ALDI: 'My heartbeat's racing'

    Welll! Thank Heaven I see the humour in everything. Why pick on MY favourite shop when my best piece of fruit is right in front of you when you enter an Aldi Store. You would have to be sadly blind to miss my yellow beauties. As for you Dom who thought up a lot of trash to laugh @, you...

    Pregnant woman finds 'deadly' ingredient in her takeout order

    Wow! I can place a feeling of doubt on this particular sandwich. We've all made them alone & many to help charity. Unless the maker picked up the next door's knife (being left-handed) how did the user cut the sandwich crossways when it was already in the sandwich? None of us are...

    Woolies shopper's 'disrespectful' act in-store called out by fellow customers: 'So lazy'

    Terri, Eleven years @ a Supermarket, of course you would re-live the nasty habits of people. I have a secret for you too. You will NEVER turn off even though you have left. Old habits of others DO remind you of so many things. I learnt long ago their own homes are spotless. They acquire...

    The Nescafe coffee in the tubes are still $3.75 that is a true special BUT Coles are now $7. I advocated I'd need to use only a half tube if it went back to the original price. Did you get a look @ last weeks empty shelves of both the Coles & Woolly's "SALT?" None available except the...

    Yes, I had an Aunt who was Chinese and her pork was to die for. I followed on with her recipe all my life. She did likewise scoring the skin and running a kettle of boiling water all over it. Patted it dry then put the oil and salt over it as though you never had a minute to live. The...

    Simple shopping trolley difference carpark sparks heated discussion – do you agree?

    ANOTHER subject that gives me the "irits." There are times when I am ashamed of people like I ran into once. And DO NOT call me an attention seeker either. I am I & you are you. When I had a car I drove it for 70 yrs & in that time, if I was returning my trolley I'd get half way with the...

    How this woman saved herself from a HACKER with a clever eight-word phrase

    You get to know the sign of the times when your phone is ringing. If there's a pause, don,t waste your time saying 'inevitably 'hello.: Hang up. That annoys them more if it is "one of those calls." If they get time to say your name, still be suspicious & if nothing is left to the imagination...

    How one simple mistake cost this mum $200,000 - A new scam we should be wary about!

    What changed so many minds in this world of ours? None of us are living. We are only existing from day to day, that's all. Selfishness, arrogance, cheating, telling lies, don't know our neighbour, thieving & dishonesty is the norm these days. I NEVER thought when my gorgeous husband went to...

    Bunnings cleaner that leaves fly screens, walls, and floors looking brand new in SECONDS!

    Been there, done that. I had tricleanium for donkey's years until we came to painting our various rooms, & our son was keen on the "odd wall" vintage. RED ceiling with light green walls!!! Soon got sick of the ceiling because there is nothing like a white ceiling for studying. The...

    ALDI is selling florist-quality flowers – shoppers are surprised!

    We were rose growers for many years & the only difference we had on all you nice people I agree with, was changing the water every 3 days, giving them exactly the same treatment by cutting diagonally the stems,de-petaling the dead freds & washing the vases. At least 4 weeks for the beautiful...

    Woolworths shopper's 'sneaky' find on supermarket shelf has everyone talking – is this legal?

    Honesty brings me to the table once more. When one is limited to TIME mostly when shopping you may have children with you who are tired, hungry or want to go home. Such Mum's are not going to look @ every price they see on the shelf & compare. Who knows for a few cents she has been charged...

    Can’t live without your daily coffee? Rising prices due to inflation might force you to reconsider

    Good on you Risky Dave. You would know more having delved into the situation. I too have heard all sorts of tales like less coffee because of shortage of trees etc & I don't believe what the fairies dish out. I can put up with tea but it's coffee all the way for me. At $3.75 for Nescafe'...
