    'What is wrong with Coles?': Shopper complains about supermarket prices after buying essentials

    "Have you noticed a rise in prices at your local supermarket?" LOL Supermarkets were created for convenience with everything in one store, online direct to boot, etc, for that U pay, stop being so lazy.

    Call of deception: This one phone call could wipe out your life savings!

    This appears to be one of the oldest scams in the book, and if people are still falling for it then clearly the message isn't getting through.

    Petrol prices set to increase over the weekend in major areas

    That's simply false, it pushes up inflation, and the Govt. doesn't find that helpful.

    Petrol prices set to increase over the weekend in major areas

    The apps are definitely helpful, and in Adelaide Unleaded 91 is 186c, strangely Aust is the only place I know that still accepts the dirty 91RON fuel.
