    My childhood Sundays consisted of a wonferful trip to the football with my whole family including my grandparents. We always went before lunch so we could watch all the lead up games.

    Mum-of-two says it's not "selfish" to bulk-buy marked-down groceries: "They are wise"

    It amazes me that these bulk buyers who take every single sale item off a shelf and leave nothing for anyone else can even live with themselves. They are so selfish and inconsiderate. I believe the stores should set a limit per customer on the number os sale items they can have.

    Woolworths customer’s ‘fashion choice’ leaves employee DISGUSTED – What do YOU think?

    I really can't see such of a problem really. The complaining TicTocer obviously doesn't have any idea of the dreadful number of people worldwide who have hardly any clothing let alone jeans and thongs. If that complainer wants to make some sort of comment on the Woolies shopper I saw on...

    Aldi's New $15 Pad Thai Meal Kit Is Causing A frenzy Among Shoppers - Here's Why

    I'd really love to try this but all the items that I have seen on SDC that are supposed to be available at Aldi I've never been able to find at either of the two Aldi stores closest to me. Maybe they are just not available in Queensland. Perhaps they think we don't cook!

    Can You Spot the ‘Disrespectful’ Detail in This Woolworths Freezer?

    How incredible that the idiot put it in a freezer. It took "effort" to open the door! They were obviously too lazy to take it back to the hot food section why go to the trouble to open the freezer door and put it t

    Celebrations for Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee end with a parade through London

    I thought it was very interesting that the first performer at the Platinum Party Concert was Australian Adam Lambert with Queen and then the 70s representative of English pop was actually Australia's Bee Gees.

    Go for the bargain! So many of us are struggling these days especially if you are on a pension like me. Roast chickens are great to freeze and a whole chicken can make many meals for a family. Even the carcass makes great soup. I always freeze my roast chicken in portions so I don't need to...

    We have always saved our little silica bags. I put a couple in each of my plastic shoe boxes to keep my shoes mould free. Like the video I have a bottle of them in my wardrobe and my hubby keeps a jar of them on hand in case our mobile phones get wet. You just put your phone and half a dozen...
