Throughout history it is fact that Royals have never been saints. What has changed?

Trouble with the media is they always like looking for smutt, especially pulling certain celebrities or even royals down.

My Motto is always check to see if you have received your money before handing over the goods. Otherwise only deal in cash sales.

I agree there are strugglers out there who try to find work, yet unemployable. Too much discrimination out there and depending on the job, business owners do tend to get very fussy. I don't blame them as their business is their livelyhood. Unfortunately it is the dole bludgers who just do not...

If there was not so much of age discrimination, I would prefer to be out there working. Not only is the money better, but also keeps the mind occupied and stops you from becoming lazy. Oh, but the government does not seem to care about the older people, just likes giving the younger ones more...

Their profits are large enough to brunt some of the extra prices, especially give a decent discount to the elderly who cannot get to the shops personally. Greed is what I put it down to.

I feel the Unions have a lot to answer for with these price hikes. It is always the case, increase in wages, then it gets passed on to the goods with higher prices. However this is only partly to blame. The rest would be the want of more profits for the big boys.

They do that in Queensland too. The politicians could be using it to have that holiday?lol. No one else charges that fee anymore, why does the government?

Why should I buy for the sake of buying just to win? Besides Woollies prices are the highest out of the trio supermarkets. Not only that, their service has not been tremendously good in our area. If I need one or more of the products and they are on special, I probably would buy. I would...

So do I. Still have the tin, but goodness knows where the pins have gone to.

I think you have PMs confused. Your description really fits the current one.

Less bread for more money.....typical. Go to your favourite local bakery. Get better value.

If a staff member directs me to the self check out, I simply ask - Do I get a staff discount on my groceries?

All red meat is now beyond affordability to the ordinary householder.

Coles did not drop and lock. They increased, then dropped half the amount and locked.

paper bags fall apart and tear if anything too heavy goes into them ... Not a good default decision.

Not only complain but also demand staff discounts for doing the job staff should be doing.

Our local Coles has now reduced their staff checkouts to two and increasing the area for self service....refuse to use them, hence stop shopping there as the queue starts getting too long for the service. It seems Woolworths is going the same way......To me all it is doing is inconveniencing...

You are forgetting the rising costs of leases, electricity, phone and all expenses related running any form of business. Stock is donated and most of the staff are volunteers, yet the managers get paid a minimum wage. All these expenses have been added to the cost of the merchandise. Nothing...

Worked in an op shop for many years, and their argument is rising costs such as leases, electricity, phone, internet for emails, etc. Sure their stock is donated, but not other expenses which they have to pay like any other business. Still no excuse to charge as if the stock is new though.
