These so called FREE items are what is causing the continual price of the groceries we buy from always going up. The items are not necessary so they should stop offering them for "free".

We did not have many holidays when we had the children but did stay in a caravan on site a couple of times but as we also did not smoke or only have a very occasional drink we managed to save some money. So we have had cruises which I love but now we are over 80 I have just found that cruises...

It is not us older people that need this advice as I think we are all aware of what the shops do to entice us into buying certain items. I do not buy most things that are in the store's catalogues as they are all not necessary. I make my list and only buy something other than my list because I...

I am very savvy with online banking where necessary but prefer cash for my shopping so withdraw the necessary funds from my bank. I would not want to use a post office because I understand that they charge $4 per transaction in or out

I agree with Anna Bligh. My idea would be for banks and institutions would be to not release any funds made by the customers for at least 2 days. It seems from recent reports that people seem to realise shortly after making payments to these scammers that they have been caught and then try to...

Interesting article. I have had some nightmares where I have woken up with one and it was so frightening. But I also have ridiculous dreams like recently. I had a dream about my former boss who was moving house and I was trying to organise him. It is about 30 years since I worked for this man...

Thank you Alan for the article. We too have Solar but not the batteries. We do not use enough electricity to warrant the cost. We originally received the 40 cents and 7 cents but now only get the new rates of 10 cents for after 5 pm and 2.5 cents for daytime and the cost to us is around 28...

Many years ago we were in Los Angeles and on picking up our luggage we had to show the ticket issued from Perth airport. This is a good idea as so many cases look the same. Another time we were going to Vancouver and had to fly via Seattle so had to pick up our cases and go through customs at...

I often see ads on the Microsoft news page when I go to the internet on my computer. I believe a lot of this is fake news. e.g. David Koch advising how he has made millions and the same with other known people. Also, this is on Facebook where at the moment we get sad news about Keith Urban...

WHAT! Not worth the bother.

I too have noticed these price hikes. I look at the Coles catalogue that I download online each week and use this to jolt my memory of something that I am running short of. I then buy while on special. BUT I have noticed that most items Coles brag are half-price is that they are unnecessary...

I have my first son who has had Asthma since a very young child at first I was just told it was Bronchitis but later Asthma. He still has bad times with it when bushfires are about and when they are doing burnoffs . He is in his 60's now and we had wood fires when we lived in the country. It is...

Well if they are saying wood stoves are killing people now with the smoke then what about Barbecues and the yearly burning off by the Government? That happens here in WA and is certainly a cause for concern with Asthmatics etc.

it said that he was a judge in your original newsletter here is a caption I had never heard it before

I agree I have stopped watching BHG as I don't like the idea of showing a house that is way beyond the average buyer. It started as an idea we could use to improve in our homes and gardens.

I did not know Ed was a judge. He was great so down to earth. Does Ed have a show where he goes Judge?

Where were the security cameras when this was happening? surely was seen and could have been stopped before it got too bad
