I'm sure the Albrecht family in Germany would be totally in support of your idea. Instead, stop buy stuff made overseas and buy from AUSTRALIAN owned businesses.

Personally, I couldn't give 2 hoots about the British royals, but, how do you know she took the family name? She just married into the House of Coburg-Saxe Gotha to do 1 job and nothing else.

Is it not just the Chinese Amazon. Another mega supplier that doesn't invest just takes. A couple of years from now, these operators will be accused like Coles & Woollies or Bunnings of being the reason why the mums and dad stores don't exist. Initially the prices will be very low, but once...

most likely a hangover from when card was the only payment option during covid era.

It's called economy of scale. Much like Vodafone that only provide reasonable coverage in certain metro areas, Aldi doesn't see a sufficient size market in Tasmania. Ever tried to get something sent to Tassie that isn't accepted by Aust Post. Sea shipping cost are far greater than road...

does sound like the producers at the Today show had a slow fluff story (what they call news) week. Not too many companies send out hard copy bills with any information that can be used to change a persons ID unless they have basic authentication protection. Paying by cheque (just how many...

The recidivism rate suggests he'll be back in prison within a week. The man has done his time but unfortunately, prison becomes the only lifestyle known and often results in perpetrator doing a crime to be reincarcerated where they know how to survive.

Maybe get a job working at one of these music festivals. Best option is to increase the hours or amount that can be earnt in a part time job before it impacts on any benefit. The allowance is a taxpayer funded payment to help LOOK for work, not plan your music festival calendar. Look at the...

Granted Coles & Woollies aren't in the top 'trusted retailer' group, but if they say it ain't the case then why give so much attention to something that has no evidence of truth. Just someone saying so, doesn't make it any more truthful.

Supermarkets in this country are damned if they do and damned if they don't. More a case of over ordering and potentially buying in a quantities that makes the product cheaper. No different to any other time of the year, xmas, luna new year (this will result in a rank from some [I hope])...

hope so.

Yahoo news? Channel 7 in other words. Anything on a tabloid 'news' feed needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Didn't sound like an ambulance would have been required, could have just got in their own car or called an uber if you don't have the basics of ambulance coverage.

Esteemed. :unsure::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

That's exactly what the suppliers are complaining about. If a supplier wants their product to be on 'special' then Coles & Woollies expect them to supply on the basis of buy 1 pallet of dishwashing detergent and get another for free. It's called a loss leader, the suppliers product then out...

We the taxpayers do just that. It's called welfare payments. $1m would go absolutely nowhere, the welfare budget in this country (2023) was well over $200BILLION.

Be interested where you get your figures. Aldi (Aust) 100% Germany family owned business. Aldi isn't a listed company, but their tax 'return' last fin year showed a $10b turnover and for Australia, only paid tax on just under $1b, not any different to the 2 big boys. Which by the way pay...

One of the rare comments on this site that is close to the mark. $1b 'profit' on over $40b turnover isn't price gouging it minimal return on investment. Most contributors to this story seem to think the price on the shelf is the 'profit'.

There's no charge if you insert (savings), but if you still tap with your debit card, then they pass on the fee (of convenience).

Assuming the photos are correct, then take them to the checkout and if they scan incorrectly, you bring to their attention and the item is free. Same applies to almost all of the above comments/examples, take up the scanning code guarantee and stop whinging. End of story.

Apart from the question: Did this actually happened? No footage of the interaction with the counter staff where he was given what he actually ordered. Or is it just another case of I saw it on social media so it must be true. I doubt very much anyone that works for a fast food outlet ever...
