    New testimonies reveal Centrelink staff's frustrations over ignored concerns on 'dodgy' Robodebt system

    We had no idea as to whether we were entitled to a pension but after a visit to the Brookvale CES office and an awesome lady we had discussions with we found that we were entitled to a part pension and had been for several years, unfortunately we could not claim the pension for the years we were...

    Karl Stefanovic spills the beans on his return to Today following a glamorous Paris wedding

    We could not watch Kosh as he comes across as a real snob with no idea as to how the “common “ people lived but since Shirvo took over as the main host the quality of the show has improved dramatically and is now a show to which everyone can relate to whereas Karl and whoever hosts channels 10...

    Is walking just 4 hours a week the secret to an increased pain threshold?

    Might be just me but I walk for 3 to 5 km every day but there is no reduction in the level of pain that I experience every day, particularly in the morning getting out of bed. And I refuse to use pain killers as have found them to be useless. I have also tried oils from banned plants with no...

    This photo of a tradie is all over the internet: Find out why Aussies are sharing it!

    IF this alleged tradie is 70 years old is it any wonder he is complaining about having to work an extra 5 years instead of enjoying his retirement at the nearest pup.

    This photo of a tradie is all over the internet: Find out why Aussies are sharing it!

    What a load of BS. I retired from full time work at around 74 years old after working in heavy industries since starting my apprenticeship as a Fitter and Turner and did not find the jobs to onerous. A retirement age of 67 is an achievable retirement age for about 95% of the workforce and it...

    The worst group responsible for cutting down on size and increasing their price is MacDonalds, their current Big Mac and other hamburger buns and patties would have to be near 30% smaller which is the reason they don’t sell the 1/4 pounders any more.

    60-day prescriptions causing chaos? Rural residents face shortage in vital medicines

    Is this just another dumb idea Albo was to scared to admit to prior to the last election. I find that the local chemist has a better understanding of patients illnesses and medical issues. At least our chemist Malouf in Manly has a great understanding of our medical issues and care.

    ALDI's strategy to tackle shoplifting—could it change supermarkets forever?

    I would suggest that the only people to object to any type of security system are those who practice “shoplifting “ when they shop. Any system which can cut down the incidence of shoplifting or any other form of theft has to be applauded as the money saved will be passed on to customers.

    The truth behind the 'downfall' of Australia's most beloved retailers – are they losing their 'magic'?

    Just wondering if these alleged experts visited a David Jones or Myer store to buy something. It is next to impossible to find store staff to help locate products, have any knowledge about the products they are selling or staff the checkout counter. And the prices these alleged high quality...

    Shopper shares brilliant money-saving tip for when you need emergency cash

    Surely it would be better to have a bank account to put away a small amount every say pension day which would give you a safe haven for your money.
