    Bring home the wagyu: Man allegedly steals $12,000 worth of meat more than 27 times

    No I haven't experienced a shoplifter but what angers me is, not everyone eats meat regularly anymore but no one has the right to steal no matter what. If they can't afford to buy food they should go to places like food bank or other charities. Why are people defending the offender saying that...

    Why does this obscure policy at Woolies infuriate shoppers?

    I don't order groceries online very often, but when I do I never order fresh food or refrigerated/frozen foods for that reason. I want to get them myself so I can pick the freshest vegetables and the longest date on foods that have expiry dates.

    How a ham and cheese sandwich exposed the truth about the cost of living reality

    I can't see what the fuss is all about. The shopper purchased a loaf of bread, a pack of cheese and a pack of ham. With all those ingredients she would have made ten sandwiches at least, averaging $2.50 per sandwich, give or take.So what she's saying is not true. Just put it all in perspective...

    This common Australian habit often grosses out tourists

    I have never liked going barefoot, not even inside my house where I wear slippers. Think of all the germs you pick up walking on dirty pavements. At the beach it's ok. I agree that going barefoot is not cool. When I see people doing that It makes me think they are bogans who don't care about...

    Caught on tape: Shopper physically assaults IGA employee over bag check

    If you've done the right thing then you should not be worried at having your bag inspected, however the worker should have not grabbed the bag but, rather, ask to inspect it. I'ts obvious that the customer had something to hide!

    Caught on tape: Shopper physically assaults IGA employee over bag check

    I worked in retail for many years and management told us if anyone was suspected of theft not to apprehend them, because of the chance of getting assaulted. We were told to let them go as now there are cameras that can film the suspected thief and, at the end of the day, the retailers have...

    74-year-old fashion designer and style icon Vera Wang shares ‘unexpected’ daily diet habit

    Most Asian women look a lot younger than they really are and I've come across many. It must be the race or their genetics or both. Having said that, I look younger than my 69 years, at least 10 years younger and I am Southern European, I still have smooth skin on my face with no lines at all...

    Australian airlines faced with new problems as plane seats ‘shrink’

    I agree that seats should be made larger, particularly on planes. If you are stuck next to an obese person it's very difficult to move because they hoard your arm rest and makes it very unconforbable.

    Score discounts on groceries! How this Coles shopper landed $208 worth of meat for just $53

    She's lucky to be getting those bargains. I never see that happening in my local Coles. They only discount by a few cents, hardly worth it. I don't know why, because where my sister lives she always gets the good bargains.

    Reevaluating Retirement: Should 70 be the New Standard Age for Pensions?

    Even though it doesn't apply to me, I think it wrong to raise the pension age to 70. Yes, there are some people in their late 60's that still work full-time but not all can work until they are 70 because it depentds on what job they are doing. In France there's backlash because the government...

    A new proposal could force working Aussies to wait until 70 to retire

    And the French people they think they are hard done by! Not all Australians are lucky enough to be able to work till they are 70. Generally when you hit 60 you start to have health issues, possibly even earlier. How's the government going to cope with that? Will they offer sickness benefit payments?
