    Aussie mum bothered over R-rated find in one of Kmart’s Easter items: “Are these meant for kids?”

    Yet another storm in a teacup. If children do not know what 50 Shades of Grey is about, they'll ask their parents who can then deflect their attention. If the children do know what the reference is about, well ... Of far more interest to me is the question whether children actually still play...

    Social media users rave over $10 hand soap that can rival a luxury brand

    This line caught my eye: One woman wrote: "You're doing the Lord's work for us." Now I know why the world is in so much trouble ... 'the Lord' is busy experimenting with soap formulae!

    Coles shopper shocked to discover price of cauliflower does NOT match its size: “Baby size but not baby price”

    I have empathy with your ant problem, @Janet g , but I had to laugh at the way you phrased it! We're also having ants (in the bathroom!) at the moment...

    Recreate the ICONIC salad that Jennifer Anniston ate for 10 YEARS on the set of Friends - “This looks so good!”

    Originated in Turkey. It's a wheat like couscous, so needs to be soaked only. Take note - it's not gluten free.

    Big W unveils a new, EXTRAVAGANT homewares range and shoppers are obsessed! - “I’m going to break my wallet!”

    I detect a conspiracy here: we're encouraged to buy more stuff which we then have to clean so we need more special cleaning hacks!! ;)

    Fashion & Apparel Rivers Barefoot Knitted Lace Up Runner Light-Grey $35 @ Catch*

    Grrr, this is a men's shoe? The colour is perfect with jeans. I'll have to visit a store and try them on to make sure I get the right size.

    Is It A Ghost? Woman’s Toilet Roll “Moves” By Itself!

    Hmm, I prefer the theory about the supernatural cat - what fun that would be!

    Senior group pushes for pension rule change allowing pensioners to continue working while receiving full entitlements — here are all the details

    Good question @Ricci! I would love to work a few days per week and have time left for my own activities (which includes volunteering), but as @Tony Delaney said above, the problem is that pensioners are severely penalised for doing a fairly small amount of work.

    84-year-old Woolies shopper’s home delivery arrives “badly damaged”

    The customer did. The article clearly states: Woolworths has already reached out to the affected customers and completely replaced their damaged groceries. and then goes on to say that the customer's daughter was not satisfied with this and felt the store should have done more.

    84-year-old Woolies shopper’s home delivery arrives “badly damaged”

    Sacking the driver will not achieve anything as this does not mean that s/he will change their approach in their next job. Woolworths does have to address the issue, yes, but this is not a sackable offence!

    The “game-changing” $3.50 wardrobe equipment that prevents your clothes from getting damaged — “My wardrobe needs this!”

    What @Ricci and @Vinylted said. And the same applies to T-shirts - I always fold ours as they take up much less space that way. But those hangers are cleverly designed!

    Royal outing in style: Kate Middleton’s dazzling outfits during the Cambridges diplomatic trip to the Caribbean

    Probably what they had to pay to rent it! Hilarious that they add this 'outfit' to the list - as though one has a vast choice of colours and styles ...

    Man from Melbourne weirded out after receiving ‘fishy’ mail: “Sounds like some scammer, stay frosty!”

    Thank you for teaching me a new term: brushing. I haven't heard of anyone receiving unsolicited hard copy mail for scamming purposes out here in the sticks - our little-known town names probably do not add enough gravitas to a fake review!

    Bride fuming over ‘GHASTLY’ wedding cake fail - “I would have cried!”

    Poor bride - I do feel sorry for her! But something else in the article caught my eye: Thankfully, her quick-thinking bridesmaids were there to save the day. The bridesmaids decided to drop by a nearby supermarket to buy a cheesecake for the reception. “We had these little jars that guests...

    10 Bedrooms That Will Actually Rob You of Sleep

    We love our new mattress and don't mind the height. BUT there are no handles on the sides and my hands are quite weak so we struggle like crazy to turn the mattress.
