    But this is being taken seriously and going through the courts. One can only hope they rule against her and supermarkets are not the place for alpacas. It doesn't help that she has been allowed to take them other places. The outcome will be interesting.

    Major Aussie bank cuts 1,500 jobs, pushes cashless future

    Thank goodness I don't bank with Westpac. Why on earth would anyone in Australia want to talk to someone in the Philippines.

    ‘What a waste of food’: Coles shoppers slam disappointing discount deal

    I never see them myself but neither have we heard about any great bargains of markdowns of meat etc in quite some considerable time. Clearly Coles have stopped doing it and that stingy effort on the lamb is a prime example of their current strategy for want of a better word. No dice Coles.
