    Transform your cluttered cupboard in a snap with this $3 'genius' tip from a pro organiser!

    For someone who is into decluttering, there are a lot of bottles in that cupboard. And I think those bottles hanging in the front are messy looking and would fall if knocked when getting the other baskets out. Not a fan.

    Beware of where you park! NSW driver slapped with hefty $283 fine for this unexpected mistake

    With modern housing developments growing quickly, the roads on these estates are narrow. Barely allowing cars to pass each other safely, so when you add parking on the street and not the nature strip, there is potential for an accident. I think most councils look the other way because then the...

    Deceptive Sale Sign Outrages Aussie Shoppers

    It really is a first world problem. Is this really disgusting and insulting behaviour by the stores? And even though the signs may be deceptive, isnt it up to us to READ them. These are not new practices, but it seems like scams, people are not learning and blaming the stores for their utter...

    Checkout act shocks 83-year-old Coles shopper

    The world is not a terrible place, we just hear about the terrible things more than the pleasant or inspiring ones. It sells more news. I just try to smile every day and enjoy what comes my way. Life can be so bleak if we let.

    Australia is facing a 450,000-tonne mountain of used solar panels. Here’s how to turn it into a valuable asset

    We do need to also consider the life after use of these products. If they cant be recycled or reused then they are not as environmentally friendy as they are made out to be. But as the article mentioned, it is not as financially beneficial to the companies to reuse them.

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

    I'm surprised she even found a branch open. They are closing down all around where I live. Wonder what these tellers do all day if they cant give out money. I took a damaged note to the bank and they refused to exchange it because it was damaged. I thought that was what they also did, take...

    Startling Discovery in ALDI Broccoli Bag

    Now seeking compensation for the trauma this caused him. What about the snake? It had to endure being stuck in with the broccoli and then transported all over the place.

    Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey labelled 'sexual bully', accused of targeting male victims

    I always felt there was something creepy about him too, but not knowing him, and knowing he is an actor, it would seem he has a certain way about him. Now it appears he is a creep and doesnt think, even if he claims he cant remember, he has done anything wrong. A definite self centred man who...

    Why is there so much of this happening? Is the workforce so under trained or are we relying too heavily on robot workforce? This needs to be improved before a tragedy happens and we need these big companies to take things seriously.
