    Experts expose truth behind Woolworths Rewards program

    I shop by price comparison between supermarket catalogues and collect Woolies and Coles points which are exchanged for $10 off shop when reaching 2,000. What about 4c off per litre of petrol which also helps choose the cheapest fuel?

    Unlock every Woolworths discount code with this secret method!

    I agree with Elaine41. There is no way I would let a store employee choose my groceries from a list. I don't support the delivery system at all and will continue to do my own shopping, thankyou, and accumulate points.

    Bankwest customer ‘absolutely gobsmacked’ after 130km cash withdrawal trip ends in failure

    As a retired bank manager, I am ashamed of the way banks are being conducted nowadays. A bank with no cash is like a pub with no beer! I used to regard the spread of bank branches being the fundamental service industry, custodians of peoples' readily accessible funds. The system has lost its...

    This woman was furious over her $37 Coles bill, but her rant took an unexpected turn

    For goodness sake, am I the only person who checks and compares prices before purchase to get the cheapest deal?

    Do you know about the 'shady' fee for using cash at Australia Post?

    Simple answer - don't pay bills at the Post Office. I never have. Use your computer to pay on line.

    Shocking paint attack at Bunnings leaves woman furious—who's to blame for her ruined car?

    Were the cleaning materials offered free of cost? That was the least Bunnings could have done. Has any thought been given to identifying the vehicle that ran over the paint tin with a view to claiming damages against the driver?

    What is atrial fibrillation, the heart condition US President Joe Biden lives with?

    Well that's one thing Joe and I have in common. Pulse 200bpm when first diagnosed a year ago. Two stents, two blood-thinners since.

    Do you know about the 'shady' fee for using cash at Australia Post?

    It is nonsensical for a charge to be levied by the organisation issuing the bill - it is not handling the cash!

    Coles' new 'Smart Gates' allegedly crush shopper: ‘Yes, it hurt’

    Get rid of self-service and shoplifting will drop. Will we see airport-type body scanners next?

    Here’s what happens to your penis as you age

    What about the clitoris? Anecdotal evidence is that it increases in size and sensitivity with age.

    Zero alcohol doesn’t mean zero risk – how marketing and blurred lines can be drinking triggers

    Some writers will invent anything for a story! I have adapted to non-alcoholic beer and find no detrimental effects, nor have I seen any evidence that its presence encourages youngsters to consume the real thing. Imaginative nonsense....

    Tesla driver's ‘failed’ cable cover-up sparks outrage online

    As I've been saying since this EV obsession began, plug-in systems are an obtrusive hopeless, expensive, concept. If we must have EVs, let them be only hybrids with on-board ICE engine chargers.

    Why do I bruise so easily? Could it be something serious?

    So, if I'm permanently on prednisolone, coupled with gingko biloba and Vitamin E (250mg) and a family history of purpura, I could be in trouble.

    The move to a cashless society isn’t just a possibility, it’s well underway

    Heaven help charities, small club raffles and other small payments which require cash! Nobody seems to give them a thought.

    Centrelink users express outrage over long wait times: ‘You're on your own pretty much’

    Not only Centrelink, but banks and other large organisations perform (or don't) similarly. I waited 45 minutes on the phone to a bank the other day, and gave up! Three minutes was the expected wait time when I was working. Current standards are disgraceful.
