I have found Woolworths to be very responsive to complaints about spoilt fruit. preferably they like photos or samples returned. Even when I have a delivery and fruit is not perfect they are quite willing to refund me. Samples of poor quality fruit have been rare and certainly no more frequent...

The other option for ironing, grow old and don’t bother. Let the fashion police turn up their noses. If you dress like a refugee you can claim to be an artist. Who said clothes had to be ironed anyway? Time is too precious for such mundane things as ironing.

Op Shops Sell New Clothes Very Cheap Hi, I have discovered that Op shops in the Newcastle and Central Coast area are selling new clothes very cheap. The goods have been donated by shops overstocked, going out of business or changing seasons. So if you can afford to be laissez faire about this...

Jetstar were my least favourite long before Covid. I dread to think how bad they are now. Perhaps Alan Joyce should make a few trips under an assumed name!

Each to their own. I have drunk a lot of wine without fear. On a cruise I found they wanted USD65 for a Sauvignon Blanc from NZ that was AuD10 in my bottle shop. I passed. After the cruise I was offered some red wine. The appeal had gone completely and I stopped drinking alcohol there and then...

When I complained about the packaging of sugar substitutes to a Woolworths manager his response was “ Woolworths are not responsible for manufacturers adherence to regulations”. The products can be life threatening to anyone with diabetes.

I was taught 55 years ago that an advertised price is merely “ An invitation to treat”. In law that means it is not a price the store has to honour. On the other hand you can bargain with the seller. The price is only fixed when the two parties agree. This has been muddled as some stores honour...

Petrol Pricing Sydney I recently used www.petrolspy.com to find E10 32c/L cheaper at Belrose rather than St Ives. These are northern suburbs in Sydney. I filled up at the service station and did my supermarket shopping nearby. I also went to a restaurant. So this shopping centre got my custom...

Beware Stevia Packaging Hi All, in my study of health and nutrition stevia has been identified as a viable sugar substitute. I recently bought a product from the supermarket without checking the labelling. When I got home I read the contents. Steve’s content 1%! Now this isn’t surprising...

The Cost of MRIs Hi All, I recently needed a cervical spine MRI. Knowing the medical industry I decided to shop around rather than use the company my GP referred me to. Was it a referral or did he just have the pad of forms on his desk? The costs difference might surprise you. PRP Gordon NSW...
