    Savvy shopper shares unusual tactic she uses to dodge scams in Temu!

    I have purchased a few things from Temu and have never had a problem. I always use PayPal when buying anything on line. If I can't buy with PayPal I don't buy it.

    Aussies are finding unbelievably cheap dishwashing tablets at Bunnings!

    I buy my dishwashing tablets at the Reject Shop. 110 finish tabs for $19.99. Sometimes they are even cheaper. Never buy them from Coles or Woolies.

    ‘Absolutely disgusting’: Coles and Woolworths' checkout trend causes stir among shoppers

    Coles at Marsden in Queensland seem to only have 2 service checkouts open at any time and there is usually a line up for them so people are forced to used the self serve ones. At busy periods there is even a line up for the self serve but still only 2 service check outs open when there are many...

    BEWARE of SCAMMERS

    With everyone struggling to make end meet these days this would be very tempting for some. The 38 000AUD is a bit obvious.

    The heartbreaking reason why this grocery is finally ditching self-serve checkouts!

    I think manned checkouts should be bought back. If theft is such a problem then fix it with customer service not security devices that treat everyone like thieves. If we have to scan and pack our own groceries due to lack of customer service then we should be entitled to a staff discount but...

    Can Centrelink payment hikes boost music festival participation?

    This has got to be one of the most rediculous ideas I have ever heard. If young people want to go to these events then they should save up for them like everyone else. It's not surprising that Greens senator SH-Y is using this for political reasons. If the government has money to give away like...

    Shopper exposes Coles' curious 'discount'—and employees are defending it!

    He should have grabbed a pack because he would be entitled to them for free. If the marked price scans higher than the ticketed price than they should be free. Coles also can be fined for selling goods at a higher price than the ticketed price.

    Coles shocker: Scales disappear from self-serve registers, leaving shoppers weighing their options!

    It must have cost these companies millions of dollars for all this technology. The cost of replacing humans doesn't come cheap. Makes you wonder if it's really worth it.

    Beware of ‘shrinkflation’: How to spot subtle rip-offs at the supermarket before it's too late!

    Cans of soft drinks. Small cartons used to be 12 in a carton. Now for slightly higher price there are only 10. I'm really sick of being treated like an idiot and being ripped off by these billion dollar companies. I refuse to buy them anymore.

    Fans spot revealing detail in Australian-born Danish Queen’s latest photo

    I'm sure the Spanish magazine is no different from most media these days. They never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

    Is Bunnings now the go-to for cleaning supplies? Here’s why this shopper thinks so!

    I buy all my cleaning products from The Reject Shop. Their prices are really low. 110 dishwashing tablets for $19.99. They work just as well as the fancy ones.

    Cadbury's Easter bunny price hike is 'absolutely criminal' according to shoppers

    Leave the Coles Cadbury bunnies on the shelf. Go to ALDI. There's are much cheaper.

    Princess’s absence fuels speculation: ‘Everything that’s been happening is weird’

    I think that the public has been told all they need to know. She is entitled to her privacy. The media are frustrated because no one is talking and they want to make some headlines. This is English gutter press at its best. Leave her alone.

    Microsoft is pulling the plug on this popular writing app after nearly 30 years!

    This has been done so that they can now charge for the new program. It's all about the money as usual. I have changed to a new FREE program for writing called Libra. It's just as good and costs nothing.

    Microsoft is pulling the plug on this popular writing app after nearly 30 years!

    The y aren't really " removing" it. They are letting the current free version run out so they can charge you for the new and improved version they are set to introduce. It's all about money and we all know how badly Microsoft need money. I refuse to pay for this and have downloaded the free...

    Are supermarkets secretly watching you? The shocking reason behind their increased surveillance

    I don't feel sorry for any of the supermarkets and trade stores who have chosen to put money before service. They want you to shop in their stores, do your own checkout scanning,pack your own groceries or goods all without training and very little help from staff. If the customer makes a "...

    You Won't Believe the Shocking State of This Kmart Beauty Section!

    I don't think you can blame Kmart for this. Their stores are cleaned thoroughly at night. Kmart really can't help what some lowlife shoppers get up to in the name of fun. Instead of denigrating the store by video it would have been more helpful to simply report the mess so that staff could clean...

    What did the Palace change about Prince Harry on their official website? The details will surprise you!

    Why can't people just let them get on with their lives. It seems to be a favourite sport of some media outlets to constantly dig up as much dirt and find faults with them and their families. Leave them alone. People should always remember what happened to Dianna as a result of relentless media...

    Discover the $39 'miracle' product helping countless Aussies ‘sleep like a baby’!

    I have been taking this for a few weeks now and I don't think it works very well. I haven't found any significant result from taking it. I would also like to point out that it isn't exactly free. You still have to pay for postage which is overpriced.
