    There are mobs geared up here solely for the purpose of flogging off our land and houses to offshore entities. If we don't stop it we will all be rent-paying tenants in our own country.

    Mrs mudsane makes every effort to buy local produce, and it has cost us heaps over the years.

    Labeling of food as Aussie made sometimes can be misleading, seeing that some products only get a bit of Aussie water and/or sugar and salt mixed with it. I learned yesterday that foreign pork only has to get made into bacon here to be labelled as Australian.

    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    Yeah there was a Local milk bar in Doreen not far from here that had been there since cocky was an egg. Then the big new housing estates started to arrive, next Coles opens up and forces them to shut down. Damn shame....

    The same has happened in Whittlesea. Not long after macdonalds moved int the local fish and chip shop shut and a few others have followed suit as well.

    The thing is that if more ppl bought Aussie made the richer out country would become and eventually the prices would start going back down.

    We try and buy Aussie made but not much really is anymore.
