    ALDI's price prowess: Switching from Woolworths saves ‘small fortune’ for this Aussie shopper

    I use American Express credit card - Aldi doesn't accept it; I use online shopping - ALdi doesn't do that either. So if you add the cost of petrol, temptation of the special buys aisle and having to find another credit card, total cost probably works out the same as any of the other...

    Can Australia Post's new community hub solve postage problems?

    That is complete nonsense - of course he can get in - he just has to read how on the address label. Anyone can get in if they follow the instructions on how to, and the person is home. Do you really believe that we are not allowed to have ANY visitors? So Coles, Woolies, and the myriad of...

    Can Australia Post's new community hub solve postage problems?

    Pity they won't deliver big parcels to gated communities - you have to pick them up from the post office - what's the point in paying delivery fees to sellers when you have to pick the things up yourself? Australia Post needs to rethink their deliveries - some elderly people are unable to...

    Australia Post announces new plan to handle mail for those away from home

    I don't think it will make it any more efficient - it is all down to the driver who delivers the actual parcel - I live in a gated community and as I am retired I am home most of the time, especially if I know a parcel is arriving. But what really gets me annoyed is that I follow the tracking...

    Iconic department store shuts its doors for good after more than three decades

    I remember in the 60's I applied for a Myer Credit Card (or something similar - might have had a different name then) and I was told I had to have written permission from my husband! LOL!! Needless to say I thought they could stuff their little cards so didn't bother and to this day have never...

    Here’s why this incredible $4.49 side dish has ALDI shoppers going wild!

    Really... over $1.10 each? Agree they are the cheapest on offer, but not for that price. Make them yourself if you are that desperate - it's only sliced potatoes with white sauce and some veges - not that complicated!

    Aussies Can't Get Enough of Kmart's Genius $1.75 Snack-Saving Clips!

    I agree - buy smaller bags of chips and if any leftovers use clothes pegs - duh... So now you will have to find room to put these chip pegs when there are no leftovers to clip. More junk!!!

    Sunrise anchor Natalie Barr sheds light on the cost of living crisis, puts Albanese in the hot seat

    Maybe these schools need to start providing lunches - it won't affect inflation and will be going where it is really needed. As a child in the UK I remember lunch being provided at school and we also received a small bottle of fresh milk.

    Public sentiment boils over as Woolworths denies cash-out request

    Who wants to carry that much cash around in their pockets anyway? I thought we were a cashless society.

    Woman calls it quits with her bank after being denied access to her own funds: 'What's the point of a bank?'
