Here in WA seniors get free travel on weekends and I believe it's between 9.30am and 3.30pm on weekdays. School children now get free travel, not sure if it is just for school or all the time. We are lucky and makes a significant difference.

I imagine it would be a very expensive day out to the Australian Open, tickets, food and drink for a family or even a couple. Probably feed you for a week or more.

I have only been to Costco once with a friend and did not see enough to warrant me joining. Don't live close enough either to warrant regular trips. But I am sure it is great for families.

I have never used the paper bags and never intend to. Always take my own reusable bags and do nit understand why Pauline Hanson can't do the same. She us making alot of fuss abkut something she can sort for herself in my opinion. I have no problem if people want to use them, but suffer the...

Same in WA, I am often wheeling trolleys back from the park near Coles at Southern River and often see the ute driving around the area picking up trolleys. People have pushed them into the lakes as well so it had to happen. We have some idiots that make life tougher and more expensive for us all.

Gosh that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read and you have to wonder about the idiots running the justice system in Victoria. A dreadful thing to say but when the crimes impact the people giving out this so called punishment, perhaps we might see some actual change and the punishment...

I agree the government do not have their priorities right, neither state nor federal and unfortunately I do not see it getting better anytime soon.

I don't know alot about what happens in Victoria and it seems the premier is not popular on this discussion page but at least over a more expensive period like Christmas and new year people can save some money and get out and about for free so how about take advantage of it and be positive...

Alot of people still think they are great drivers when they have not been for many years but will not be 'told'. I think it is great to know your limitations. I hope I do as I would hate to be a menace on the road.

It makes me wonder how the young of today would cope doing what we did to make do and get ahead in life. We had to just get on and do the best we could and I am proud of where I am today even though I have just had another kick in the guts and moving to a new home down sizing away from...

I agree with Zuki but it is still a wonderful gesture of the Mangle family and that particular home and residents are very fortunate as will future residents be. Unfortunately it is often only when these types of gifts are given are the greatest benefits shown. As we all know all aged care are...

When I first got my age pension I also had to apply for the NZ super which is taken off dollar for dollar from the Australian pension. When I got my letter from NZ I rang Centrelink to inform them and sent a copy of the letter. All arrears got paid to Centrelink but each time I got a monthly...

It should have happened years ago and it does make you wonder why common sense takes so long to become a reality. I guess better late than never.

I would certainly find somewhere else. I pay $6,50 for two beautiful slices of fruit toast in Perth on the odd occasion I have brekkie with my coffee. If people didn't pay it they would have to do something about. Their prices are exhorbitant across the board.

I never buy pre-packaged fruit and veg, one because there is only me and I don't want to waste any but you can't see what you are buying and years ago there was always one or two rubbish ones in there. I reuse the bags I get so find many uses for them. They may eventually end up at the tip but...

Definitely way too young and after dedicating himself to caring for and losing his wife like that, he succumbs to the beastly disease that is cancer. Tragic and my condolences to his family and friends.

Stuff the stigma, if it saves lives then it's woth it. Roll it out and let's see how it goes. All well and good if it is not needed.

The vote should go out to ratepayers as to what funding gets the go ahead for the year or the three years etc and if we don't vote that's on us. But the most votes get the go ahead. After all it's our money and our community and perhaps we should really pay more attention.

Fortunately I do not have to lodge tax returns and have not done so for about 15 years now and do not intend to start now.

I agree with all of the above. Discipline and respect for yourself and others is very rare these days and needs to be a focus both at primary school and in the home if our children are going to have a chance.
