    How to get a $5 haircut EVERY time: Frugal Aussie reveals her secret

    Wow, its more expensive in Perth. My normal hair salon charges $35 and the closest hair school charges $25. Not such a savings. The worst thing is men's cuts are $5 incl beard but women's cuts are FIVE times more. My hair is easier to cut than many men's cuts but because I don't have a penis...

    Tasted something wrong with your GROSSeries? You're not crazy, other people have tasted weird things too!

    I had a weird time years back. My home smelled of cigarette smoke. Disgisting. Nobody else could smell it but me. It was only me there, never ever smoked, nobody ever smoked anywhere near. I tried to figure every possibility of where it was coming from...another apartment, the hallway outside...

    Cruel new scam that urges people to get tested for COVID leaves thousands of Australians victimised – here’s how to avoid it

    Firstly, I never ever click mysterious links in texts. But Yep, that's the text I received on Monday this week. It caused instant stress until I thought... hmmm, nobody is scanning into places so there's no way to check close contacts. I called Medicare and it was confirmed that NO they never...

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

    So I wonder🤔...how many of you 'fashion police' who have commented that thongs or bare feet are 'disgusting' are also the ones who stick your bare hands in the bulk food bins? I see this happen a lot. If this is you, re-evaluate your disgusting rating the next time you're shoving your...

    Gross or genius? This Woolies shopping bag 'hack' is going viral – but not everyone is a fan

    Nothing gross about reusing bags. How many hands have been on the cans, packages and pretty much everything in the grocery store before you buy it. 100s or maybe 1000s. Everything in any store has stacks of germs on it long before you ever pick it up. Just wash it and wipe the cans when you get...

    Aussie mum shares her INCREDIBLE markdown meat haul – whole chickens for less than a dollar!

    I see mega deals all the time. I think I have built in radar for them. Like I bought four whole roast chickens at Coles at only a few dollars each. Home, pulled them apart, in ziploc bags, everything ready to eat in the freezer. The carcasses in my big soup pot and heaps of stock, also in the...

    Is Subway's new direction a recipe for disaster? Sandwich chain introduces MAJOR CHANGE to its menu

    I just looked up lettuce prices for Coles, Woolies and IGA. The highest price I found was $5.50. Yes that's high but it's certainly not $12. I call BS.

    Savvy shopper unveils how to get FREE groceries at the Woolworths checkout – “Anyone can do it!”

    Another way to get free groceries is to just steal them. I was horrified at the Fremantle Coles to personally witness a group of young teen schoolgirls (in their school uniforms), roaming the isles and stuffing their mouths and pockets. I pointed them out to security who refused to do anything...

    Savvy shopper unveils how to get FREE groceries at the Woolworths checkout – “Anyone can do it!”

    Did you know... Coles and Woolies If your product scans the wrong price, you get it free. Yes! Know your prices and carefully watch as scanning. I've had many items scan wrong and yes I tell the employee, they confirm and return my money and I still get the item. There are little signs on the...

    Supermarket angst: Mum no longer 'looks forward' to her weekly shop because of rising grocery prices

    I'm doing this. So interesting. Right now I have three celery bottoms sprouting on my counter. I've also grown spring onions. I'm going to do a lot more. So many great videos online of growing food from scraps. Loving the home grown gardening.

    Supermarket angst: Mum no longer 'looks forward' to her weekly shop because of rising grocery prices

    If you don't have a big freezer, get one. It is THE BEST way to save. Buy all the specials, premake meals and freeze them. I know freezers use power but in the long run it's a massive money saver. I got my chest freezer for a measley $50 on gumtree over 10 years ago. Paid itself off 100's of...

    BEWARE: Man confesses losing $700,000 to a ‘clever’ con artist that left several Aussie families penniless

    There are big red flags on all these stories. Why would anyone believe in anybody who contacts them out of the blue wanting money? Why would anyone part with 100's of 1000's of dollars and not themselves personally meet and mega check the people out and the legitimacy. I'm not talking online...

    What does a grocery basket worth $100 look like these days? Aussie man's grocery bill shocks the internet

    It's almost all packaged stuff. That's always a money grab. This shopper obviously knows zippo about savvy, intelligent shopping.

    Coles shoppers’ BIZARRE ACT sparks internet outrage — “They just have no regard for anyone!”

    Disgusting. Theres no way I'd have not reported these people. They'll no doubt be expecting to get this free saying it's garbage. No, it's not garbage. They'll be onselling this in their food venues later that day. Also, their germs have tainted everything. So to the fellow who videoed...
