    Unlock the Secret to Enhancing Your Caravan with This Genius $14 Woolworths Item – Owners Can't Stop Raving About It!

    I haven't seen these things,but I do see a lot of adds for mobile phone fixtures that attach to rear vision mirrors. These maybe for older cars without modern navigation systems displays, but are they legal when a puny little air freshener isn't? Or is this another thing that it's legal to sell...

    Are You Guilty of This 'Rude' Party Behavior? Australian Mum Sparks Fierce Debate!

    Strange lady. For starters it's an adult's birthday, she stated gifts were not 'mandatory', (who in Oz would use that word on an invite) and then she has the hide to be offended when gifts were not given.

    Flight Attendants' Secret Phrase for Dealing with Rude Passengers – You Won't Believe What It Is!

    I have only ever experienced perfection in every flight attendant that I've encountered. Even when off duty and flying as a passenger to the next job.

    Hilarious or Harsh? See How Aussies Are Taking Parking Justice Into Their Own Hands!

    If the parking lot, as stated, was only half full, I'd be inclined to mind my own business. A bit like scrolling past posts you don't agree with on social media.

    Save your cash this summer! Kmart shopper exposes the truth about this popular product!

    Our bread machine got used twice. The deep fryer more often, but the waste was colossal. Bye bye to both. Cheaper to buy bread and easier to eat. The home made stuff had hard thick crusts. The deep fryer was saved from recycling by someone who swore they'd use it.

    She Broke My ONE Wedding Rule - Why I Had No Choice But To Kick My Sister Out

    I'm an Aussie (rules were made to be broken) but I'd never try to dictate what anyone wore. Having said that, in this lady's case, she certainly had the right to remove 'miss spiteful' from her special day.
