    Over two days last week I received, on my home phone, 45 calls from 3 separate numbers, 2 mobile numbers and one that looked like it came from Victoria, trying to lure me into accepting exhaust fans, the callers claimed it was a government incentive.

    ‘Last male sanctuary’ barber shop to pursue formalising ban on women

    I applaud this particular Barber shop owner. Why can't he have a men only shop? For heaven's sake there are many women's hairdresser shops out there for women to use as well as those who cater for all 'different' genders. I really don't have any issue with this, let the man run his shop how...

    I certainly wouldn't go out to specifically look at only buying meat in the hope the checkout person scans it wrongly, but I would certainly keep an eye on the price the product did scan at and most certainly draw their attention to it.
