I live in S.A. It never ceases to amaze me how other State governments seem to be able to help their constituents out. $1000 for electricity assistance??? Lower car insurance??? Unheard of here in S A! We have the highest everything here in this State...apart from help to Pensioners.

I experienced Temu packages being delivered incorrectly so complained to them. They simply marked that all my deliveries be delivered only by Aust Post. Problem solved. Easy. Temu instantly paid money back for a delivery when the driver couldn't find my address. In my bank within 5 minutes. The...

There is a limit that you must buy to get free postage. Mine is $40. I know some friends have $45 and $50 so it may depend on how much you buy over time. You may not have reached that limit with your purchase...

I'm 75 years old and have had RSV twice. The first time was the sickest I have ever been in my life! I sat for 3 days (easier than lying down) using my CPAP machine non-stop just so I could breathe. If it hadn't been for that, I know I would have ended up in hospital. It took months for the...

She has admitted she got it wrong...after telling us all off 🤣 We all wish she was right but no. We got nothing out of this pathetic wage-earner positive, pensioner-negative budget. They should all hang their heads in Shame! But they won't. If I could get this 75 year old body working again, I...

What on earth was there in that article to make pensioners feel happy??? 10% increase in rent relief? Great! Payments indexed to the CPI so that has little to do with our ACTUAL cost of living increases. It is never enough. All those increases were for people working and already earning money...

The worst budget for aged pensioners!!! Usually we get something in there to help out with the outrageous cost of living, but we are actually worse off with this budget at a time when we aged pensioners are all struggling. Thank you Labor. I thought you were supposed to help the poor but you...

The worst budget ever for pensioners and those on Job Seeker. What happened to the $750 once off relief payment??? Never mentioned! Actually we on pensions were barely mentioned or looked after. The cost of our living expenses just keeps going up and no compensation from this lousy Labor Govt. I...

Fuel cards and relief from the highest electricity and food prices here in SA. Our Government here are way too interested in the Gather Round and fun things than getting serious about helping the aged pensioners. Their priorities suck!

What a post to put on for we struggling Pensioners. We should get excited about people with the ability to work and earn money getting even more?? I want to see what the Government is going to be doing for the poorest in the community. And sadly that's us, the pensioners and those on...

That is simply untrue! Quite the opposite in fact. I have dealt with all 3 companies and Aldi is the one that always wants to deal with Australian manufacturers and farmers! Not so Coles and Woolworths! We used to make their home brand cordial and at every run, they would have someone there to...

I live from the aged pension cheque to pension cheque and I don't lead a bad life. However, I am very lucky to be in a unit owned by a charity so my rent is low. I don't know how I would be if I had to pay more rent. Destitute, I would say! Unfortunately though, I have no money behind me should...

I worked for many years with Coles, Woolworths and Aldi. Aldi were so much easier and honest to work with than the Big 2 who tried to screw every cent they could out of the Manufacturers and farmers. They showed little care about these businesses and never gave their customers a thought. They...

The Government gives us rises in our payments based on the CPI which is usually much less than 2%. Meanwhile the cost of what we actually buy viz. Petrol, food, gas, electricity, rent et al all go up by 20+%! That means we are always behind! Stop using this incredibly unfair way of increasing...

Aldi always use Australian Manufacturers! In fact, more times than Coles and Woolworths. The only time you see other manufacturers used in Aldi is in their centre aisles on goods other than food. Thank goodness for Aldi, I say. I save money shopping there every week.

Banducci was an amazing success....at the expense of growers, manufacturers and customers.

I've had RSV twice now and it's horrible. I spent days just sitting with my CPAP machine so I could breathe properly. Once gone, the cough persists for months. I'll be lining up to get the vaccination. Covid was a breeze in comparison to RSV.

So, you're blaming the victim??? Anyone should be able to get their food delivery safely. I blame the idiot delivery drivers who had orders to deliver to the hotel lobby.

I have eaten the crab lasagne at Il Centro in Brisbane several times. One of the most delicious things I have ever tasted. I would definitely pay $75 for this dish......once, just to taste it. It's a luxury dish with a luxury price, but sometimes you just have to spoil yourself.

Why does SA get less than NSW and Qld when their energy costs are the most expensive in Australia??
