Good morning, dear members of the Seniors Discount Club! It's Tuesday, and I (Jarred) hope this newsletter finds you brimming with joy and excitement for a brand-new day. First and foremost, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to you for being part of our vibrant community. Your presence brings irreplaceable warmth, wisdom, and contagious enthusiasm that continues to inspire us. Now, let's dive right into today's newsletter, and you know what’s up first today… The answer to yesterday’s riddle! But what was the riddle again?

We are little creatures; all of us have different features. One of us in glass is set; one of us you'll find in a jet. Another you may see in tin, and the fourth is boxed within. If the fifth you should pursue, it can never fly from you. What are we?

The answer is none other than vowels! If you noticed, the words ‘glass’, ‘jet’, ‘tin’,’boxed’, and ‘you’ contain the vowels a, e, i, o, and u. Pretty clever, eh? Well done to those who answered correctly! For those that missed the mark — don’t worry! There’s always the next riddle to solve.😉 As usual, those who cracked this one will find their shout-outs below!

Now, let's find out today's thrilling events happening all around the world and across Australia!

• Inconsiderate Kmart? Shoppers are outraged after the budget retailer quietly got rid of an entire range of convenient items YOU might be using — was it a wrong call on their end?
• Need emergency money for groceries? An ALDI shopper’s simple shopping tip has gone viral online for the ingenious way they save up to $500 a year for when times are tough. Will you be trying this?
• There’s a harsh reality behind retail giants like Myer and David Jones, which is slowly chipping away at their existence. What’s taken down their once-unassailable charm — and have they really ‘lost their magic’?
• Lamb is a bit on the pricier end of things, but one Coles shopper was able to score six cutlet packs for just $3 each! And did we mention they weren’t on sale? What’s the secret?
• In moderation, good ol’ liquid courage doesn’t hurt this time of the year… Lucky for us, ALDI’s got an affordable top-notch range of spirits up for sale, starting at $39.99! Will you be giving this a go?
• The late actress Carrie Fisher is making a movie comeback — you did not read that wrong. It turns out one of her movies is up for release 7 years after her death. What can you expect to see?
• ‘Free-range’ and ‘organic’ are terms people don’t really mind seeing on their meat labels. But how about ‘lab grown’? Here’s why the transition to this controversial food cultivation method may very well be ‘inevitable’.
• One woman out on a regular Woolworths shopping run made a ‘one-in-a-billion’ discovery sure to surprise you — partly because it might be worth $1400! Now, isn’t that eggcellent...
• ALDI is taking things up a notch in the anti-theft game, with shoppers at one branch noticing a rather bold change to their grocery experience. Do you think they’ve taken it too far this time?
• BARGAIN ALERT: A savvy shopper was able to score an amazing $26 haul of fresh fruit and vegetables while on a grocery run. The catch? Woolworths, Coles, or even ALDI weren’t involved!
• Happy 100, Vegemite! The iconic Aussie spread released a limited edition series of mini replica jars starting at $160. Here’s the thing: It could sell for more in a couple of years!
• Five crew members of a British Airways flight sustained serious injuries after an incident had passengers allegedly screaming in horror. Have you ever heard of anything like this, members?
• Chow down on this absolutely scrumptious winter-warming delight featuring fish and veggies… Click here for the recipe!
• Be the SDC's next trivia master! Test your smarts with our latest game, SDC Trivia, that’s sure to give you a good time and a good challenge.
• Commas are used like a soft pause to allow readers to take in information in digestible chunks. In this cheeky joke from member @mOiOz, they’re also a visual aid that leaves nothing to the imagination…
