    You won't believe what this Gold Coast cleaner found ‘growing’ in a dishwasher!

    Oh Yuck. I was surprised people didn't know but then was amazed recently that people didn't know you had to empty your dryer filter.......to prevent household fires. Good grief.. Run a cycle with Bicarb and vinegar each week is a cheap and easy way to keep gunge at bay.....

    Coles draws flak for ‘sneakily’ raising milk prices

    Coles should butt out - it's a conflict of interest and it "could" lead to a monopoly that the consumers AND the farmers might bear the brunt of. Coles have this monopoly they can pay the farmers what they like and they have got into trouble for this before AND they can charge us what they...

    Discover how one savvy dad outsmarted scammers by pointing out a small detail

    I had one myself......I simply rang my son to make sure. Simple. I am sure there are a lot of people, especially non tech savvy or elderly people, that sadly get taken in by these attempts. In saying that I hope to God I am not gonna have a bad day and click before my brains engaged. Grin !!

    End of an era: Nestle discontinues iconic Fantales chocolate after 93 years

    Good old-fashioned kindness

    I went to the shops one day and as I was gathering my shopping I noticed a man in a motorised walker trying to reach to some biscuits. He proceeded to tell me that he was going in for a heart operation and his Doctor had said, if he went out he had to stay in his walker. I had to go to work, but...

    GP fees are now higher than rebates, leading to urgent calls for Medicare reform

    I shattered a vertabra and am on the minimum pain patch that I can get (I am allergic to many, and or hate drugs) BUT even so I have to get a script for 1 per weekly patch, for 4 weeks from my Doctor. My Doctor has to be booked about two weeks ahead for starters, then by Law (which I agree...

    Shocking report details major altercation between Prince William and Harry

    Sadly I have to agree, and that is my take.......the money will eventually run out, then how is he going to support his family and their lavish lifestyle. Yes I know a few narcists and Meghan is very likely one.

    Shocking report details major altercation between Prince William and Harry

    I agree and lets face it, most families have their issues, some not quite as bad and some much more horrendous than this. Quite frankly, I think he has realised that not being a active Royal is quite a costly affair. I wonder how he is going to support his family in ten years time when this...

    Saying hello to strangers on the street – is it a thing of the past?

    I have some lovely neighbours and cannot imagine how soul destroying you must have felt to be abused in that way. BUT, angel, don't let it stop you, just don't do it when that neighbour is around. There's some lonely people out there that would w3elcome that smile.

    Saying hello to strangers on the street – is it a thing of the past?

    Hi all, I am new to this forum. I am not from Regional Australia, just a lady from the suburbs. It's like letting people into traffic or thanking someone for letting you into traffic.....it's common courtesy. On a really busy street, it's not so easy because you would look manic, nodding every...
