    Retiring But Not Relaxing: Australia’s Age Pension Maze

    Our finance guy helped me do my application for the pension online. I have been into Centrelink a few times to sort a few things and it has never taken long so I don't have any problem with them. Another point politicians are never going to be on govt pensions themselves so they have zero...

    AEC investigates after missing ballot papers found at election worker's home

    The person who took it must have known what they had and knowingly put the box in their house and didn't let anyone know it was there. That in itself is a crime and breach of the position they were in. Was it a test to see if it could happen and they need to tighten procedures? Clearly.

    I agree and if slowing down for a few minutes is the difference between making it home at all or nit being in a prang it is a no brainer. WA statistics for road deaths and the annoying carparks because of accidents, we could all do with paying attention to this and absorb the message.

    They should list what they buy for $150.00 and how many it feeds for how long, mind you we could work that out for ourselves. It pretty much costs me $150 each week just for myself but I buy healthy and fresh produce like salmon and fillet steak. But small portions. I am not a sausage girl...

    Bunnings boasts about its price-beating guarantee but for 9,000 products there is a catch

    Office works is another one who always has a convenient excuse not to price match. I won't shop there. You bring up a product that is cheaper they will never match it. False advertising in my opinion.
