Lust for cash, cash, and more cash! The only issue the western nations have is these giant corporations and their never-ending hunger for profits. Did you see the salaries of those CEOs? Ridiculous and totally out of touch with reality. And don't even get me started on politicians. That's where all ... View More

It's time for Coles to start putting some of their "profits" into a fund for people who are struggling with the cost of living. It would be great for their public image if they did this.

Albo, let some more bloody supermarkets in to break up this bloody duopoly. Other countries don't have just two bloomin' supermarket chains colluding to keep prices sky high. Coles and Woolies need a fair dinkum competitor to bring those prices down.

That's why prices have shot up after 3 years of smashing profits, yet there's still only one person at the checkout. No more free bags, and they're sneaky about mixing up orders to make the cheap stuff run out so everyone has to fork out for the overpriced stuff making record profits. Emma Stone

So we had some fruits and veggies, a couple of snacks, takeout, and a little treat. Nowadays, you'd probably just hit up a takeout joint any day of the week. They should teach a class on how to shop for fruits, veggies, and meat for dinner. It's not that difficult, it's just called being lazy.

That's how bloody desperate free to air TV is to try and stay relevant, mate. Chris White
Just watch out, everyone! The next Olympics better watch their back because I'll be taking home the gold in jokes instead!
A person who didn't do so great at the Olympics is now living it up in all sorts of ways, which is pretty embarrassing. She and her husband totally tricked everyone, and to call her a hero? Yeah, she definitely played the game right.
I reckon it's grouse how society is totally cool with average being seen as success and giving out rewards for it.
That whole Schapelle Corby TV promotion thing was a total joke! I mean, why are we wasting time on her when there are so many amazing people to celebrate instead? It's like we're putting boring drug smugglers and talentless nobodies on a fancy pedestal.
I won't be tuning in if she's around! Peter Campbell
Fair dinkum. The media giving a pat on the back to those who are just average or have a criminal record. Good on ya. Marilyn Bennett
The media gonna flaunt her like she's some sideshow act in a freak show. She ain't even fazed by the media's shady ways.
We should celebrate hard work and talent, not mediocrity. Caitlin McDonald
spot on, Hailey Welch (Hawk Tuah sheila) from the same biscuit cutter
Definitely Home and Away would've snatched her up first since you don't even need talent to be on that show.
Dancing with the celebs? 😂 Christina Sanders
Nah, not gonna do it. Don't give props to average. She was cringy for real, making us Aussies look bad. She needs to be forgotten like, yesterday.
Like, does anyone really need another excuse not to watch it? 😂
I will bend over backwards to steer clear of any show that has that cringe-worthy person in it.
Australians won't support her, ratings will drop - dumb move. Can't wait to see what happens. David Price
They gotta be playin', like seriously, how can someone so useless and cringy think they're a celeb or be successful in any way.
It sucks for the folks who don't get paid because of the awesome shows.
This show has officially gone off the deep end! If they dare call her a "celebrity" or put her on TV, then I'm sorry but our society is seriously out of touch.
She went out to become known for herself instead of doing what her fellow Olympians did ... compete at the top level and make their country proud. She doesn't deserve any praise at all ...
