Prior to covid i had a flight booked with Qantas business class from Alice Springs to Sydney direct, when i arrived at the airport i was informed the flight had been cancelled. I was told that all flights for the next 2 days were booked out so they had booked me on flight to Sydney via Adelaide...

I have travelled the world sometimes for up to a year, i have only used a small school sized backpack that i carried on as hand luggage. buying the right lightweight outdoor clothing is the secret, they roll up really small and take up little room, plus they dry in minutes when washed. one...

I switched to Aldi several years ago and immediately saved over $25 a week. I recently had to shop at a big name supermarket close to my home due to illness, and was stunned when my shop was nearly $40 more expensive than Aldi. As an aged pensioner i have a limited budget and only buy...

I cannot understand why people buy meat at a supermarket unless they have no choice. i buy all my meat from a local butcher even if i have to pay a couple dollars more, the quality is far superior. If i am going to stretch my pension out to buy some meat, i want to be able to eat it and enjoy...

i recently left a positive comment on a well known English sports stars site. Within days i started receiving texts supposedly from the sportsman, asking me to sign up to another website i had never heard off to talk privately with him. I immediately wondered why he would pick me to talk to over...

Probably just a bit of fun on the day, but unfortunately breakfast television has became so bad over time that i stopped watching all channels many years ago.

I have not been hungry enough to buy Maccas for many years, plus i would never buy a burger with Aioli on it. Hamburgers in Australia that i remember since the fifties use only Tomato sauce or BBQ sauce. Some shops offered home made pickles as an alternative.

Sorry to see Sanity close their doors, unfortunately, i am part of the problem. So easy to just use YouTube these days. A sign of the times.

If washing some dirty dishes is the worst thing he ever had to do in life,, he would be lucky. I hope he loses the right to any unemployment benefit he applies for. Young ones today want to start at the top. He has a lot to learn.

I fail to understand why people choose to invest and deal with a company they have probably never heard of. plenty of long term investment companies that have been around for years and are proven performers in Australia. Better the devil you know than the one you don't. Keep your money where...

At my local Bunning's you are lucky if you get 1 slice of dry bread around your sausage. Good profit for the charity, but poor value for the buyer. Bunning's should have a standard that must be met.

More products added to my list of Don't Buy Again. Getting harder and harder to buy Australian by the week. Easier now to use my local suppliers and home cook my own. I am disgusted that governments allow this to happen. Put Australia First. We vote and pay your wages.

I recently waited 6 weeks for repairs to be carried out to my house. The timber required was in short supply so i had to wait on the next shipment, then with so many workers off work with covid i had to wait again. What is going wrong with this country.

My computer required service recently and i was advised that it would work better if i upgraded some parts, i was quoted $250 to carry out the work which i agreed to, Shocked to find out my card was charged just over $500. When i queried the quote they claimed the quote was for labour only and...

Co payment is a struggle on the pension, my GP does not bulk bill. I pay $70 a visit plus $25 for repeat prescriptions. Some of my scripts have reduced from 5 down to 2 repeats adding extra cost. These costs mean less trips to the doctors, putting up with problems until i can afford another...

I don't answer any calls from anyone not in my contacts list. I also block any unknown number.

I stopped flying Qantas about 40 years ago. I found i could fly business class on a range of other airlines cheaper than the Qantas economy fare. I have flown on over 30 different airlines throughout the world and would rate Qantas as one of the worst.
