    This $724 Woolworths grocery haul sparked outrage–but why?

    I have to wonder why the lady in question thought to publicize the cost of her groceries if not to spark a debate like this?

    Battle of the Shower Steamers: Vicks vs Anihana vs Essential Oils

    If I have a cold, or am suffering with allergies, I use a few sprays of Eucalyptus oil into the shower. The warm water creates a lovely eucalyptus steam which really does clear the nose and makes the bathroom smell great. Thanks for the amusing and entertaining review by the way.

    Shocking $336 glitch on Woolworths receipt leaves shopper speechless—could this happen to you?

    So if the chicken cost over $300, how much did the total bill cost??? I mean I always have a general idea of how much the shopping with come to, but unless I had deliberately purchased a very expensive item, I would be questioning the amount if it was more than I usually paid.

    We have three supermarkets in our small town. Woolworths, Foodland and IGA. I can see it would be a good idea to browse the catalogues and make a list of which store has the things you need on special, and shop at all three if necessary.

    Young Aussies may bear the burden of new levy for the ageing population: What does it mean for your grandchildren?

    In Germany, where my daughter and her husband lived for three years, everyone pays a levy. This entitles them to receive sick pay when they are off work with illness, and a pension when they retire. Once upon a time, the young took care of their aged relatives. It doesn't seem to happen so much...

    You won't believe the outrageous banana act a Woolworths shopper got caught doing at the check-out!

    Discover which new Tim Tam flavour has fans absolutely ecstatic!

    I have to agree with you. I do like TimTams, but I also like the old favorites which are slowly disappearing from our shelves. Maybe Arnotts are in cohorts with the Diet Food Companies? Tempt us with lovely chocolate biscuits so we all gain weight and then have to resort to buying all the...
