    Pizza Hut hit with $2.5 million penalty for bombarding customers with texts and emails

    I always block phone numbers when I get those annoying texts. That seems to work. I do the same with emails. Bot are easy to do on my iPhone and Mac.

    Pan Cooked Lasagna

    I thought this sounded good, But then I checked for Cream of Onion Soup and neither Coles or Woolies stock it (except in a packet). I suppose we could substitute Cream of Mushroom? Whatcha think?

    Age check or checkout: ALDI cashier extends plea to shoppers over ID checks

    In the US you have to show proof of age at any shop you buy alcohol from. And some of the big chains don't recognise foreign drivers licenses! I had to go and drag my 95 year old mum out of the car so she could show her driver's license!!! It did make me laugh though.

    Simple, tech-savvy tip for finding the best grocery deals stuns the internet!

    I use the Coles app to make a shopping list. You choose your store and then the app tells you which aisle the item is on! That makes shopping faster as you can avoid the aisles you don’t need to go down. This stops some impulse buying as well!!

    Expert weighs in on the question: Are self-serve checkouts taking jobs away from hard-working Aussies?

    I still believe that younger school aged kids are the losers here. And this started way before Covid as Dicky just posted. Now there is talk of removing all cash registers from stores like K-mart. I don't like them at all. They are asking me to do their job for them and I still pay the same...

    Creamy Potato Bake Recipe

    The photo that goes with this recipe does not match the method. The photo shows a 'scalloped' potato bake which are slices of potatoes. The recipe calls for the potatoes to be 'chopped small' (not even sure I know what that means, ie how small. I'm being picky I know but I hate it when the...
