I noticed this the other day that the receipt for a small shop was so long. However, I do get asked if I want the receipt, I do sometimes just to check. I also remember the shopper dockets - we used to swap them out at work, they were a nice little bonus.

When I was a kid we had the same postman for many years. He would do little things for people in the area like pick up prescriptions from the Chemist on his way to deliver the mail. I also remember getting my HSC results as soon as the post office back doors opened very early in the morning. He...

We used to play on one of these in the local park near our home. We had so much fun climbing and driving the rocket spaceship. It filled many hours of outdoor games.

Taking away real people from the bank customer service and branches and with everything being electronic run from overseas call centres and through AI and computer monitoring I think it will become even harder to deal with banks. Getting rid of branches and the face to face has caused so many...

We shop when there are the specials which usually work in a cycle. That way we save money and for some of 'usual goods' we save money for example our cereal we buy two boxes which last us until the next half price special and with the rewards we save even more, that way we very rarely pay the...

The sooner you are both out the better. He is an abuser and controller. Seek some help and back up from some of the DV agencies. You and your Mum deserve better!

Love cauliflower, going to try this, looks delicious. Thank you Suzanne Rose for this - you're a gem!

I bought a burger combo from the new take away shop in our suburb. I paid $24.00 for a combo though nice and tasty was nothing special - but the price got me. I remember when it was a couple of dollars.

I remember my great-grandmother's kitchen - the same green Laminex as above with a kitchen table the same Laminex green top.

Just like my grandmother used to do. Will try this.

We have just changed to the Food bin that goes with our green bin which is now collected weekly. As there are only two of us, there is not that much red bin rubbish. Since the change we are definitely putting less in the red bin and about three small bags a week of food rubbish in the green bin...

My sister was in London recently and met Princess Anne shopping. No visible security around. My sister smiled at her with a smile back and a polite hello and found her absolutely charming that she stopped to talk. She is so down to earth and understands people - something that the Sussexes could...

I have been in Liverpool hospital a number of times over the last ten years. My first stay was for three months - I could not have been looked after any better anywhere else. Other stays have been quite good and I have no complaints. One visit to emergency during a very busy night was not good...

I prefer to stand in the que and use the manned one check out at my Woolies - shopping is becoming such a minefield to navigate by changing simple processes into complicated ones.

My rates have gone up this year by about $500. It is getting ridiculous with the huge increases. Why do we need so many levels of government. The concept of councils needs rethinking to a more efficient way of managing the local area.

Many restaurants and cafes are doing it really tough. Places that we go to we have found they are not as busy as they used to be and the menu choices are not as big as they were once were. It is sad when your favourite eating places are no longer around. Admitted, we are not easting out as much...

I wish in our small suburb that we had a choice for our fruit and vegetables. Wollies and Coles have taken over and all the smaller retailers like the butcher, florist and fruit shops have long disappeared. We have to travel to get half decent fruit and meat. What a great choice this family have...

I just do not understand 'why'? Makes no sense.

Welcome to the new world of 'Artificial Intelligence', nothing real or deep. I prefer my brain to do the research and the thinking as it is real!

It is a shame that so many non-profit organisations can no long continue to provide excellent services for the real people in need. So much for inclusivity! The money goes to the big for profit organisations whose first purpose is to make money through providing a lesser service. So many of the...
