    Posties are skipping doorbells more than ever—but this witty fix is catching on!

    Posties are skipping doorbells more than ever—but this witty fix is catching on!

    Dear member Southmelbswans thankyou for your post. I think that they come to the door and take a take a photo of them pressing the doorbell, and then quickly walk away. I have had the post man ring my door bell to deliver a parcel. By the time I would open my door, the post man would already...

    Posties are skipping doorbells more than ever—but this witty fix is catching on!

    I have noticed when the weather is bad like raining, extremely windy or super cold, I would get a card in the letter box to pick up my parcel from the post office. When this happens, I don't know whether to feel sorry for the post man, for not being able to cope with the harsh weather, or to...

    Alright, be honest...how do you feel about BIG W stocking a MAGA hat?

    Dear member Leenie, thankyou for your post. Actually it's not about the fact that it's a just a cap, the big issue here are the printed words that are an instant reminder of the one that is not so popular here right now. Wishing you a pleasant day. God bless, 🙏🦋

    A 73-year-old man lived without power in a mouldy home—here’s how the system failed him

    I don't believe that the question and issue here is about how to get rid of mould. The point of this story is about an elderly man who has serious health issues, has been placed into a mould infested house.

    Parking on grass could trigger $1,000 fine as council hides silent rules

    I can recall once when I went to Savers, I parked in a disability parking spot. Just then, a car parked behind me where it clearly had a no parking sign. Well, it just happen to be two men from the council, with their parking monitors ready to scroll down the street to issue parking...

    Parking on grass could trigger $1,000 fine as council hides silent rules

    Why hasn't the council put up signs, like they do for everything else, that it is illegal to park on the grass nature strip. People need to be made aware that they will get a fine for parking on grass . The only way is signs, place no parking signs throughout the streets and those who can not...

    News show faces shutdown risk after network reveals shocking response to ratings plunge

    If I had to choose between 10 News+ or The Project, I think I would switch the TV off for the hour and watch neither. Over time, The Project became a very predictable and eventually stale show. There was never any real excitement, anything new or anything entertaining. The replacement show...

    New scam outsmarts security measures—what every Aussie should know

    Dear member Pec Xland, thankyou for your post. Kindly stop calling the elderly stupid because they opened an email to a scam. This is a Senior's Discount Club. So when you call one elderly stupid, you are in a sense, mocking and insulting other respected elderly who are members on SDC. Views...

    Dear member BruceC, thankyou for your post. Just because the elderly are trusting of people, please don't lable them as simply stupid and deserve to loose everything they have, as you have stated in your post.

    Woolies shoppers stunned by outrageous chicken prices

    A tip, don't buy roast chicken that is on special, it's not worth saving a few dollars because the on special chicken tends to be dry and tough. Ring the store, and ask when is their chicken roasted and put for sale. That way, you can come into coles at the right time, just when the chickens...

    Gen Zs saw a landline socket and thought it was...WHAT?!

    My daughters all found it strange when I showed them some of my records that I kept, in particular the first Skippy record that had the sound track on it. I managed to find an old record player on ebay and purchased it. My daughter's were forever asking how is that needle resting on the...

    North Burnett Regional Council hands down Queenland's biggest rate increase

    It appears that if you have a government job, you are required to up hold the view that you are superior and above the common people. That you are entitled to do as you please at your own pace and accept a pay rise on a regular basis. Many times, little if any consideration is permitted to the...

    Dear member Luckyus, thankyou for your post. I agree with your opinion, however, I don't think that the young can afford bank charges, their lates and avo on wholemeal, as some of the biggest credit card users are the younger generation, who seem to think that it's ok to spend money that they...
