Condolences to SR, and also thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention. I think this situation is appalling - preying on family at a highly emotional time. Rather than purchasing a prepaid funeral - which seems to be total misnomer in this sad case at least - I think it's better to...

So many of us like to complain about the sneaky practices employed by supermarkets, yet are cheering for shoppers deliberately 'gaming' their loyalty cards. I hope this does not eventally have a negative impact on ALL shoppers by changes to supermarket, and other, loyalty programs.

How 'green' are EV's really? They have to be charged using our existing power supply which in Australia is still heavily coal- based. Therefore not so 'green'. How are the batteries manufactured? Through massive increases in mineral mining which has resultant major environmental impacts...

As a 'subsidiary of the Commonwealth Bank', Bankwest is at the very least, the junior partner to a Big 4 member. That is a very close relationship, and would have a large impact on their activities and conduct.

While I feel a little sorry for this travellor, my main response is 'How naive can an adult be in this day and age?' We are constantly reminded NOT to share personal details and photos with clear and/or hidden data, online. He should be thankful his valuable lesson didn't cost him more.

If for some odd reason I decided to use a self service checkout ( not likely) I would scan items as I wanted to depending on how I wanted to load my bags and trolley.

Great video. Loved every aspect of it. Great for all passengers, Aussies and others, as it highlights so many wonderful places around the world. Commentary by employees and FF members are more personal, and the safety messages succinct and to the point.

It's not only banks that want a cashless society. Governments aren't stepping in to stop this because they too will benefit enormously if cash is no longer used. Why? BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE TRANSACTION WE MAKE COULD, AND POSSIBLY WOULD, BE TRACKED BY GOVERNMENT BODIES. The only possible way to at...

'We employ more people than ever before..'. A pointless statement as it has no relevance to the topic under discussion: self service compared to 'real' service, checkouts. These many extra staff members are NOT at checkouts of either type. They are collating and or filling on- line orders...

I do not understand why people think their dogs need to be with them in-store while shopping, or at busy markets, unless they are a trained, proper support dog such as a seeing-eye dog. It is sometimes hard enough negotiating aisles and market paths without having to also do a dance to avoid...

A simple solution to this problem - Suoermarket 'giants' need to employ sufficient staff to bring back all their FULL SERVICE checkouts. The only exit from a store should be at the front, through a checkout, even if you are leaving without any products to purchase. I totally disagree with all...

What a disappointing attitude. It is NOT easy for everyone to look up / work out the necessary 'translations' and comparisons. If I, for instance, want to include something in a magazine published/produced in another country, I would want potential readers to understand what I have presented...

This sounds and looks delicious but .... perhaps for Australian readers of Australian magazines recipe weights should be in metric measures, ingredients should be as named in Australia eg. plain flour or self-raising flour, condiments included should be as available here or alternatives listed...

Why would you choose to shop in businesses that increasingly treat all their customers as potential criminals?? And to those respondents who say 'if you are not doing anything wrong what's the problem?' (and don't mind being seen as potential thieves rather than valued customers) .. I suggest...
