    Australia Post reveals massive update for deliveries nationwide! Here's what we know so far

    It is something I never have to worry about as I collect all mail from the post office. We only have post office boxes available where I live. At least I can be sure none of my parcels can be stolen. I do think it's a great idea though

    Are Australia's banking services changing soon? Bank chief reveals monumental changes ahead

    The only reason I do my banking online is because there is no bank where I live. I would prefer to deal in cash only. I never feel safe using my card to pay for things. That is when there's a chance my money could be stolen from my accounts. I think the only reason people are using cards more is...

    Good on her for dressing to suit her. I wanted a white wedding gown with a long train and veil. Instead a had an off white dress with a short veil.

    'They're pretty trigger-happy over there': Aussie singer shares life-threatening experience while living abroad

    I'm happy to say it's never happened to me and it's another reason why I'd never go to the United States. I hope they made a formal apology to Guy but I doubt they would have been reprimanded for using such excessive force.

    Residents sound alarm over rampant thefts in this area. How safe are your supplies during the dry spell?

    That is beyond contempt. They are stealing water and don't care if the residents or the animals die from dehydration. I'd say if you catch them, tie them up and leave them in the boiling sun and see how they like it.

    'His time is limited': Aussie footy legend faces heartbreaking diagnosis

    I don't watch football or rugby but it's still sad to hear. I'm just glad he's not in pain. It's sad to hear anyone going through this. My husband thought he had something stuck in his throat.

    'Not worth it to me anymore': Customers clamour over changes in Woolworths' Everyday Rewards

    I'll be keeping mine because I do a monthly shop and save around $80 each time. I only do a Big W shop every 6 months or so and I can only order online because of where I live. It is a bit off putting when they change all the time. Like the Woolworths credit card going to Macquarie bank...

    'It's quite funny': Singer talks about her supermarket story making rounds online

    My late husband would help to push the trolleys then would move to the end of the checkout and wait for me to fill the trolleys.

    I'm sorry for the loss of their wonderful dogs. I also want to thank them for letting us know about this. I have wonderful vets who will talk over cases when they need to try a new drug.

    Drink prices set to rise under new recycling scheme starting soon

    I take all of my cans to a recycle depot but I don't really save anything as I have to do a 100km round trip to do this. If they put the prices up, I'll just have to stop buying and save that way instead. The government gives with one hand and takes back with the other. Typical.
