As a single pensioner, I don't want more than one of anything most times. I'm annoyed at the paltry "savings" offered by these gimmicks especially the "members offer" which only applies if you buy two and saves you a whole dollar. In my place, I don't have room for 2 items and one of them would...

The self-serve checkout scanners don't like green bananas. If you go through the lengthy process of having to type in "banana" it objects when you bag it and asks for an assistant. The other day I put 3 truss tomatoes on the scale (no bag) but when the options came up there were no tomatoes...

While there's been a lot (Note: not "alot") of talk about boycotting Woolies because of their lack of Aussie Day merchandise, I think the most effective thing would be to boycott them on Australia Day. They just might get the message.

"both the driver and civilians." I would have thought the driver is also a civilian!

What an absolute d***head that Koch is! Sure, interest rates have gone through the roof but this "younger" lot who have property that they rent out are covering themselves with rent increases. That's why many older people are struggling. In the last two years my rent has moved from $180 to $250...

And I just now (4:49pm Tue 15/12) accessed my online account where I was told that they're experiencing problems and I should try again later. I think they should just reopen the local branch which was shut down a couple of months ago.

"we thank customers for their patience" Weasel words! I can imagine that all customers were at their wits' ends trying to access accounts. No patience involved in that. And how on earth can Westpac imagine how the customers were reacting? So typical of big business. Someone needs to pay for this!

With the cost of living pressures, I'm sure people are limiting their "luxuries". You can find other solutions. I now make my own pastrami using corned silverside ($10/kilo) using my slow cooker. Shop bought pastrami is nearing $50/kilo. I really don't see the point of Woolies packaging...

And where are the other comments? It would be pointless for me to say something that's already been said!

"kerb this dangerous behaviour" The "kerb" is the edge of the roadway. The word "curb" means to restrain. It's unfortunate that the Americans have gotten involved in English usage.

I can't see how government can control this because Centrelink is the physical delivery of services to the public and is largely delivered by contractors

‘We know there’s more to do, and that’s why we’ll continue to invest in the future, whether that’s support for our team, creating jobs, investing in communities and paying fair prices to the thousands of businesses (both large and small) we work with across the country,’ they shared. Biggest...

The other day this "smart" technology objected to my selecting "banana" when I was buying green ones and up on the screen came a selection of green vegetables. There went a good couple of minutes out of my life!

It's a "licence" not an American "license"!

Here's a thought. If you are in a long line waiting to check out at the self-serve area or even if queues at manned checkouts are excessive, go and load a trolley with frozen goods, go back in line and then leave the trolley. Of course, if a number of these happen at once, the disruption will...

The CFMEU should be insisting for its members to observe all the safety guidelines instead of employing this usual Union bullying tactic.

They went on strike recently. I don't see the point as they always operate as if they're on strike.

So where's the "revelation" of how he hit the jackpot?

Smoke and mirrors! This is the type of thing governments do to make themselves look like they're doing something. The reality is that very few pensioners will be able to take advantage of this "generous offer" because they won't get employed and will continue to go backwards under all the...

I didn't know that a Federal department could issue fines in relation to phone usage. I thought these were the reponsibility of State Govt
