PLEASE WATCH THIS IF YOU CAN: I have just finished watching SUPER POWER shown on ABC Four Corners last night on 19 Feb. This is a documentary all about Coles and Woolworths and how they justify their exorbitant prices for groceries. I found it very interesting to see how the CEO's of Coles and...

The old saying "As safe as a bank" is well and truly dead.

Holey moley!

These lithium batteries should be banned as they are a definite fire hazard, you only have to see the number of incidences involving them, lives have been lost and damage has been done but they are still out there in all sorts of devices. When devices are fully charged, take them off charge...

This is the best news I have read in a long time. What a kind gesture to be able to give out $250 Coles vouchers to people who can really use some help paying for overpriced groceries. I hope other millionaires can follow suit and do the same, which can be another great story - if only.

I have been caught so many times at the checkout with double scanning and being charged more than the advertised price for shopping. Now I pay close attention to the price tags and when I get to the checkout I try to watch the groceries been priced as they go through the checkout to make sure...

I couldn't tell you a swifty song either, only know the good ones.

My mum had a few crimplene fashion items in her wardrobe and the big thing was that it didn't need ironing as did everything else back then. The colours were quiet vibrant from memory.

I'm still trying to get my head around it, $1200 for a concert ticket?

Yep, had one of these, exactly the same. It was only used when we went camping and I used to put the bread and some baked beans then onto the coals of the open fire til toasted. So delicious! It was our go to for breakky by the fire.

Oh no! I'd forgotten all about crimplene dresses. What a blast from the past - orange was a popular colour.

I'm not a fan of Tay Tay but she must have something going for her if she can $1200 for a ticket, good on her. She has sold out concerts and people are paying top dollar to see her (the parents are paying for their kids to go). I would like to see my mother shelling out that much for a ticket...

My brother had a dragster just like this one.

The kids down the road had the exact same one, they also had the blue scooter to match. I loved playing with their bikes as I didn't have one at the time. They had a good backyard to burn around in.

Yes, shrinkflation has even affected the poor old sao bikky.

I remember them but never had one. I remember the day I got my first tin of 12 Derwent coloured pencils. I was so happy as they were the best pencils for doing projects, such vivid bright colours. I treasured them and didn't like to sharpen them too much. All the kids wanted to borrow them and I...

I had forgotten about these lollies until just now, they were very fruity and crunchy.

Saos with tomato and cheese or vegemite, sometimes peanut butter and honey with a good cuppa will do me for morning or afternoon tea. They keep fresh in a large screwtop jar. I will never give them up!

Yep, we had one in the 70"s, looks exactly the same as the one here. They were a bit humid but better than nothing in the scorching heat.
