    ‘Too good to be true’? Weight-loss scam tricks Aussies with fake endorsements

    I have used iHerb for years and they have been great. Maybe it was a cloned website that caused issues. I use the app on my phone to order. Like you, I’m always suspicious of ads, especially on Facebook. I have looked into their people giving reviews and noticed in a lot of cases the people...

    Are you risking deadly infections every time you use a friend's bathroom? One woman's terrifying story will make you think twice

    Wash my hands so many times in a day. I’ve never been one for dirty, sticky hands right from being a kid. I always have liquid soap and baby wipes in my car for times there is no soap in public bathrooms. There was soap and sanitizer everywhere during Covid days but now most just have water...

    Wood heater pollution is a silent killer. Here's where the smoke is worst

    We had a wood fire for 36 years when we lived in a small country town. Just about everyone we knew had one too. I never heard one complaint from anyone the whole time we lived there. My husband used to go out and cut the wood himself. He knew which was good burning wood and would have two sheds...

    No toilet, no exceptions: One woman’s humiliating walk home while pregnant

    I would have let her use the toilet, and have in the past when someone is in desperate need. Insurance or not, it the decent thing to do.

    Are you making this embarrassing deed every time you shop for groceries?

    I think I might have shared this before, but I was buying toilet rolls from Coles. I picked a pack up and put it in the trolley. When I got to the checkout I noticed a brown mass on the packet. I said to the checkout operator OMG are people recycling these!! It didn’t look good. I went back to...

    You won't believe what this Aussie cricket star did after spotting shocking roadside emergency

    I was talking to a guy I didn’t know in the Post Office and he just dropped to the ground while having a seizure. As it happened I had just done a refresher course regarding seizures for my job the day before, not realising how handy it would become so quickly lol. Anyway, I got down on the...

    Would you be OK with your parcel being tossed like this?

    Yeah, Star Track are not the best. Where we used to live they didn’t ever attempt deliveries in the area and just took the items straight to the post office. The posties complained regularly but nothing changed. Where we live now there doesnt seem to be a problem and we’ve had deliveries...

    Sick of missed packages and sneaky fees? Here’s what you can do

    Yes they do. But now my mother in law is in her late 90’s and in a nursing home so we usually send flowers or a plant for birthdays and Christmas. They are amazing with deliveries, delivering Christmas Eve, and Mothers Day and we include a box of chocolates with it. I’m told the flowers are...

    Are we all liars?

    I am the worlds worse liar, it is written all over my face, so over the years I’ve just owned up to everything. If I’m overcharged at the shops I will point it out, but usually if I notice at the time. If it was a large amount I would go back but a small un-noticed amount I wouldn’t, but the...

    Sick of missed packages and sneaky fees? Here’s what you can do

    I think I would do what someone said in the article, if they wanted to charge me for delivery they can return it to sender and I would get a refund. I’ve gone through having to pay extra for delivery when sending gifts to family in the UK. I have found out since if the item is over £40 (I think)...

    Popular shopping site faces EU blowback over alleged illegal and unsafe product sales

    I recon you have competition for being TEMU’s best customer lol. If I want anything I always check there first. I’m finding that with them being agents I’m getting some things delivered very quickly and the quality is amazing. The things that are coming directly, I might have to pay for delivery...
