Didn't they learn anything? Those few 'normal' weeks, and I got enough of everything again! Not by panic buying either! Or can't people shop normally anymore? I just hope that I can get the few things I do need!

Didn't stop my locals being completely empty of toilet paper today after being fully stocked last night.

so, in other words .... when the shit hits the fan, the paper leaves the shelves?

Maybe use some of Dan's military to guard the toilet paper? I heard someone sneezed in Victoria. Pussies.

What is wrong with people?

20 cases a day and people panicking... grow up folks!

What a state?!

There are 6.5 million people living in Victoria. If 10% of the population had CV-19, that would be 650,000 people. If 1% 65,000 people. If 0.1% 6,500 people. If 0.01% 650 people. The actual number of people in Victoria who now have the CV-19 is now 121. That is 0.002% calmdown

oh FFS🙄

Woolworths underpayments blow out to $390 million; 1350 jobs to goWoolworths has revealed the total cost of its worker underpayment scandal has blown out again, cementing it as one of the largest wage incidents in Australian history, as it warned of job losses due to increased automation.
