    Kmart’s gone all-in on green…is the new look genius or just plain gaudy?

    They can't bring out the same colours all the time. It's all in the eye of the beholder. Some of it will suit and some won't.

    FAST AND CHEAP: Will this retail addiction in Australia bite back hard soon?

    I personally don't buy from the likes of Temu and Shein but I am aware many people do and love them. I used to always buy better quality clothes but when they were on sale and they used to last me for years but I have to say I don't find as many clothes I love in the better quality these days...

    Tired of bin mess and rising council costs? This tip could save your nose (and your nerves)

    I rarely wash out my bin but it never gets in that sort of mess. Don't have a fogo bin and all greenwaste and house rubbish goes in the one bin. But I use the vegetable bags from supermarkets to put my household scraps in before they go in the bin so they don't make a horrible mess. I don't have...

    Science is bringing hair back—Would you say yes to a new you?

    So many guys look great with the bald look. Perhaps not so much for women. I think if I lost my hair for any reason and I certainly hope not I would get a wig at least for going out as there are great ones these days and very natural looking ones.

    ‘I said no’: New AI requests put pressure on Aussie GPs. Here’s why it matters to you.

    Gosh I wonder how GPs and anyone else for that matter has managed all these years without AI. Advanced technology is not always what it is cracked up to be. I have just been listening to the radio and people are stressed at work and being asked to do more than they should. How do they think we...

    Outnumbered, unarmed, and undeterred: Watch an elderly man take on armed thieves

    He was very brave and lucky he wasn't very badly injured. They clearly did not want to as they had the weapon to inflict dreadful injuries. Lucky they caught them when they did before it escalated.

    This simple side hustle is helping older Australians earn more and stay independent

    Well she's lucky she can get a job like that, which is flexible with her existing one. Not always possible but I have to say if it was my future home I would definitely want to be seeing it for myself rather than relying on someone else. We have all seen how some of those scenarios have turned out.

    Not so neighbourly: Complaint triggers unruly behaviour in high-end neighbourhood

    Gosh that is despicable and nobody should have to put up with that. It's a worry when the police cannot or will not protect you. It must be a nightmare for you.

    The aisle’s empty and so are we: Loyal shoppers left reeling as ALDI and Coles quietly drop fan favourites

    This does nit affect me but I can understand for those that do prefer and love the no longer available sachets, a more expensive alternative does not cut it in today's cost of living crisis so for them I hope stocks are back soon.

    Once a simple steak order—now a $290 moral dilemma at dinner

    I love a decent fillet steak medium rare but there are plenty of lovely restaurants where you don't have to take out a mortgage to pay for it. Burnt to a crisp is carcegenic as well so definitely not good for you.

    People go to emergency because they can no longer afford to go to the dr with the cost of living crisis Australia is facing thanks to the government and their really poor management and it makes me sick when they are on tv saying it is a privilege to represent the people of Australia.
