    Don’t let your super outlast you! Aussie seniors urged to spend (and save) wisely

    Yes it’s true you don’t want to run out of funds and you’ve been used to saving so it is a different mind set once you retire. We Caravanned until things became too difficult for my husband who developed Altzeimers and passed away in 2020. But we did have those wonderful years of travelling...

    From $2,000 to $0: Aussie Slashes Energy Costs with Massive Rebate

    We got solar panels years ago and it’s been the best choice having hardly any high bills whilst the financial incentives lasted. But we only needed eight panels and after enquiring about the batteries I’ve been told I need extra panels to make it worthwhile. I can’t afford this outcome and...

    Bargain turns into nightmare after $600 deal goes wrong

    Yes I was sent a message last week telling me I had not paid a $300 fine for speeding and if I didn’t pay by midnight I would incur extra fines. I went into a spin trying to contact dot direct to no avail. Went into my local Registration place (who wouldn’t help) and finally after 30mins got...

    Cruise holidays are meant to be smooth sailing—but this boarding day was anything but!

    I’m sure the owner of the suitcase would have been compensated. I’ve often wondered about the complexity of my suitcase ultimately reaching me. It would have been frustrating to have water-logged essentials to have to use on a cruise when you wouldn’t be able to replace them. And awful the...

    ‘I do what I want’: Did Kyle’s live meltdown go too far—or just tell the truth?

    I certainly don’t listen to them. More should tune out rather than listen to such absolute crap that he seems to enjoy using. JUST DON T LISTEN TO THEM He doesn’t appear to have anything important to say anyway….

    I don’t buy bags either. Supermarkets making a killing of charging for bags when there is so much wrapped in plastic and no one seems to care. About time plastic packing was outlawed like plastic shopping bags.

    Shoppers break law using trending supermarket trick without realising

    Could may be the operative word. There has been much spoken about price gouging by the big supermarkets recently and it’s natural that people will be inquisitive about price in these competitive times.

    Shoppers trash store aisles, leave Kmart staff to clean up mess

    Yes I have to agree it’s the way people are taught at an early age. I pick things up if I have dropped them but I won’t go around picking other people’s dropped lazy itemd
