    Effortless trick for a sparkling clean washing machine using a common household item!

    I only use Vinegar now. I have tried so many different things. Store bought cleaners for the washing machine - never again. They actually made it worse. Followed the instructions but ended up with a machine full of suds which took ages and many rinses to get rid of. Tried Tricleanium - too...

    WARNING: 'Disgusting' surprise in packet of Woolworths rice

    Why does everyone blame Woolworths when something goes bad. They are not manufacturing the products. It would be different if it was from the bakery or deli etc where they can actually see any problems. But inside sealed products, they don't have x-ray vision.

    Centrelink wait times soar due to severe staff shortages. Here’s what the CEO has to say.

    Huge price drop alert! How to get hundreds of products for less at Woolworths

    Most of the Price Drops are for large size items. For a single person this is a waste. They are catering for the families but the single person is hurting just as much. Smaller sizes are so much more expensive

    Services Australia issues appeal over complaints on seniors line's long wait time

    24 minutes wait time, I wish. I was waiting on the phone for over 2 hrs before someone answered. As soon as they did I was again put on hold for 45 minutes. So sick of Centrelink, they treat you like a second class idiot.

    ‘Why?’ – Shoppers left confused by unexpected sign at Woolworths deli

    In my Woolies store in Hobart the Deli is closed early every day due to what they say is not enough customers buying in the early evening. What about the poor people who work late, they don't have a chance to get there during the day to accommodate the Deli staff.

    Do you think this Coles shopper's attempt to get free chicken is 'scabby'? Find out what people are saying!

    What an absolutely stupid comment about whingeing customers. I work in Retail & don't get paid enough for these self entitled people to have a go at me. I am the same as them and deserve to be treated as such. Imagine how it would be if there were not people in the supermarkets to fill and...
