    Stop wasting time at Woolies! Discover the secret tip shoppers wish they knew sooner

    My local Coles has just reorganised their entire store and after speaking with several staff that I happen to know we’ve all decided it was done by a mid-20’s male who has never actually done a weekly shop! Nothing in the aisles now goes together. The only thing that we all agreed on is that...

    ‘This isn’t respect’: Veterans question club’s Armistice Day gesture

    Maybe I’m just a wee bit cynical but I’m thinking the club may soon come out with a new shirt that will be acceptable to them and can only be purchased through the club for a ridiculous price. In small towns there’s not always another suitable club available to change to and it’s really hard...

    ‘This cart gave me my independence back’: How one small change in Coles helps wheelchair users shop alone

    Claw grabber would be great for a lot of people, not only those in wheelchairs but they would probably have to come with a crash helmet and legal paperwork saying the customer won’t sue if they accidentally received a concussion or cracked skull. Maybe escalator type shelves where they rotate...

    More cafes are ditching price tags—and the reason isn’t what you’d expect

    How do I know I’ve been charged the correct price for the item I purchased? There may be an itemised receipt but for all I know my raison bread just became a steak sandwich! Nah! Think I’d go somewhere else.

    Member's Question: 'Do seniors get discounts on iPhones?'

    I just got a new one and no I didn’t get a discount. If you’re going from a 7 the iPhone SE is a great phone at a good price, however the 3rd generation of it that is available at the moment is the last SE. The 16e is the replacement for it, which I ended up getting. The reasoning behind this...

    Airports should be strict with everyone—so how did a TV favourite get away with this?

    Aah! The perfect way to spy - tv cameras, crew, Brickman and Hamish. All these other countries, groups, clandestine surveillance people, have obviously been doing it wrong for decades. And naturally Australia has to be stupid and let the rest of the world into how it’s done!

    Deb’s Dollar Dazzlers: Smart survey wins, tasty pinwheels, and a $20 boost!

    One question about surveys. Every time I’ve ever done any (not many at all) I’m inundated with phone calls from companies saying I agreed to be contacted about their products even though I make sure I mark everything in the survey as no I don’t want to be contacted. How do you avoid this when...

    You won’t believe who gets $2 million payout after wrongful conviction

    I’m not going to say whether I think she’s guilty or not. I’ve been waiting to see the shit hit the fan once money came into the equation. For those that think she’s guilty, why are you complaining - she spent 20 years in gaol and was due for parole shortly after she was released, so what more...

    GST to 15%? Bold Fix or Budget Blowout in Disguise?

    I’m living on an aged pension - no other income at all. No super, stocks and bonds and absolutely zero savings. Just letting you know my circumstances. I don’t really have a problem with increasing GST, actually surprised it hasn’t already happened, IF I get the $3,300 paid into my bank account...
