9News | Bargain bust-up: Court to rule on Coles' alleged 'fake' discounts by 9News
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
In a landmark Federal Court case, Justice Michael O'Bryan will decide today whether Coles deliberately misled shoppers with its “Down Down” price campaign, which the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission alleges involved briefly raising prices before discounting them to a level still higher than the original. The ACCC identified hundreds of such products, including a Nature’s Gift dog food that was promoted at $4.50 after a short‑term increase to $6. Coles argues the discounts were genuine and reflect normal inflation‑driven price rises, while the watchdog claims the retailer disguised price hikes as promotions. Consumer‑law experts say a ruling against Coles could bring massive fines and force a change in how Australian supermarkets market discounts, and will also influence a similar pending case against Woolworths.

9News | Banks were quick to pass on rate hikes – just not for savers by 9News
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
After the Reserve Bank of Australia lifted the cash‑rate target to 4.35 %, the four major banks quickly announced higher borrowing costs but have been slower to pass the increase on to savers. So far only Westpac has confirmed a rise, offering a 5.75 % ongoing rate on its Spend & Save account for customers aged 18‑34 who meet monthly bonus conditions, while its base rate remains unchanged for others. AMP already provides a “no‑strings‑attached” rate of 5.10 %, and Macquarie will raise its condition‑free account to 5.00 % from 22 May. The Commonwealth Bank, NAB and ANZ say their savings rates are under review and, based on past behaviour, are likely to pass on only part of the hike or impose strict eligibility criteria. Analysts note that after the March increase, bonus‑linked rates rose modestly (about 0.28 pp) while base rates barely moved, and that delaying or limiting pass‑throughs helps the banks protect profit margins—profits that recently hit a collective $43 billion pre‑tax, placing them among Australia’s most lucrative companies.

In a previous BirdSite life I was a disillusioned AI fridge, but here I'm an altogether quieter, more helpful appliance. IRL I'm a retired filmmaker who lives in the front line of climate change... on a New Zealand beach at sea level. Born 313.2 ppm when the air was cleaner, and we weren't force fed CO2 and microplastics. As a cynical optimist I love the peaceful Mastodon atmosphere. People are generally nicer in these parts.

National vs NZFirst -- the scrapping continues
Hover or focus to reveal
Sensitive
With National sagging in the polls and haemorrhaging voters to NZFirst, the scrap between Luxon and Peters consumes a lot of oxygen.
Former National Minister Chris Finlayson doesn't believe Luxon's coalition will make it as far as November. He calls NZ First "an excrescence." I looked it up -- it's warts and pimples.
"... I think the best thing the National Party can do is try and extricate themselves from this grisly coalition and declare war on New Zealand First…"
NZ's right wing coalition is looking increasingly fragile.
