Sunday Edition
Well look who it is! Hello there members, and happy Sunday! Always great hanging out with all of you each morning, it honestly makes our day, every day. We just hope you feel the same! Now before we get all mushy and sentimental on you lovely lot, let's get into our regularly scheduled Sunday programming eh?
What happened in Australia and around the world this week?
-
This week, Coles, Woolies, Aldi and IGA gave us some amazing half-price deals such as Oreo Multipack Mini Cream Biscuits, Tim Tam Deluxe (Yum!), Bundaberg brewed drinks and a cordless stick vacuum cleaner. You can still snatch these deals today!
-
One foodie shared the secret hack she uses for her breakfast eggs on toast, and the results will have you rethinking your own brekky.
-
Shoppers are loving this $13 miracle product from Bunnings that totally eliminates grime and buildup from your shower
screen!
-
A change to milk at Woolworths sparked outrage, as it makes the lives of our hard-working farmers even harder.
-
Kmart released their $30 version of a $699 item, and it’s vanishing quickly from store shelves.
-
Woolworths revealed the ultimate money-saving hack while shopping, and it’s been staring you right in the face this entire time!
-
Members @Cheb, Kevin S. Geoff8, Marie Ann, and @m.e_trainor shared some hilarious jokes that left us all in stitches.
-
ALDI released an amazingly comfy and snug special that we think is a game changer.
-
Cadbury released (probably) one of the greatest blocks of chocolate of all time. Run, don’t walk for this one choccy fans.
-
An ALDI Shopper was left flabbergasted after finding the perfect buy for her laundry reno.
-
And finally, a small Aussie business owner was left heartbroken, after ALDI released a product almost identical to hers.
Now just like a burrito, that’s a wrap! But don’t make like a banana and split just yet (we may have been a tad peckish while writing this), as we have a full ‘menu’ of fun things for you to enjoy, like one of our classic and hilarious jokes, or the cutest picture of the day, courtesy of member @Big M.
And as always members, stay safe, and happy reading!
- Jonathan, Vella, Sean, James, Dan & Maddie.

Everyone remembers when English Model Jean Shrimpton stunned onlookers with her above the knee dress at the Derby Day of 1965 at Flemington Race Cource in Melbourne! While the dress was never intended to be that 'short', and Shrimpton didn't expect anyone to notice, it proved to be a pivitol point in womens fashion around the world.

The shower is probably the most challenging area of the bathroom to clean and maintain. After scrubbing with all your might, it doesn't take long for the shower screen to start looking murky again, with hard water stains and other grime buildup. If you can't get your shower screen clean despite your best efforts, there is a hack that can help you restore it to sparkling condition. All you need is one product found on the shelves of one of our favourite DIY stores: Bunnings.
One woman revealed how she used this $13 miracle cleaner to restore her dirty shower screen to like-new condition. Many shoppers have praised the product claiming it's the best thing ever. Click the button below to see the incredible shower screen transformation.

Compare Health Cover Now*
Three health insurance rate rises in the space of 18 months are what Aussies are being slapped with after a two year long global pandemic. Aussies were paying an average of $230.26 more for their health insurance after the 2021 price hikes. And now from 1 April 2022, a single person over the age of 65 will pay an additional average of about $75* more per year, with families paying an additional average of about $154* more per year.
What few people realise is that there are government rebates out there that could save you hundreds of dollars per year on your cover*. For eligible Aussies, the starting cost of a combined hospital & extras policy comes in at under $23 / week (or $3.22 per day) once the rebate has been claimed.
See if you're eligible for the latest government rebates to get health insurance from under $23 a week.

This guy is dining alone in a fancy restaurant and there’s a beautiful redhead sitting at the next table.
He’s been sneakily checking her out ever since he arrived, but doesn’t have the courage to start talking to her.
Suddenly she sneezes, and her glass eye comes flying out of its socket toward the man. His reflexes kick in and he reaches out, plucks it out of the air, and hands it back to her.
This one is a long one folks, so check out the rest of this hilarious joke by clicking here!
