Breaking news. Sunrise producers can't spell.

A shopping list doesn't help you shop fast when half the items on it are out of stock.

People overseas knew the impending doom and either still left the country or didn't come home, self inflicted i reckon let them stay there!

Embarrassing typo, Sunrise staff. Makes you look extremely unprofessional.

I think they should call it physical distancing rather than social distancing. I still socialise with friends and family via phone and internet. However when I go out and distance myself from people in shops I tend not to socialise with them because I don't know them.

Should make isles ‘One Way’ at the supermarket

Coles, Woollies, stop being tight arses and allow home deliveries again. The drivers and vehicles are there waiting for work.

I was overseas in London last month, and as soon as the government told to come home, I DID so with my OWN money (multiple times more expensive). Why the heck these stranded Aussies overseas didn't do so? So obvious they just wanted to wait until the gov charter special flights for them and once arrive they will stay in 5 STAR hotels free of charge as well? FFF

Brining is also similar to "curing", which usually involves significantly drying the food, and is done over a much longer period of time. what could they be saying??? 🤔

One of my best mates has C19 and we didn't even know. He had flown into Perth, self-isolated automatically, and when he got symptoms he contacted the hospital who send a doctor to test him and confirmed it is C19. He didn't go to hospital, but instead stayed home and treated like the flu which he said it feels very similar. He will get over this fine without affecting anyone else. That's how you handle this, man up, hunker down and don't blab it all over the net to spread fear.

Anyone who did not come home earlier should stay where they are. They are a risk to the rest of us.

Has South Australia drifted off the continent you would think so looking at the news.

Thank you for having the comment section open 😊

"Brining" - standard illiterate Australian journalism.

What's the point of restricting numbers when no one including the staff are wearing gloves??? Cash money going from customer to staff, & then staff to customer as change & then
repeated to next customer???Are the night shelf stockers wearing gloves, most probably not . 😵.

[sproutabout]

... and he had no symptoms... wake up!

[Lictexlife]

I went on the ruby. Princess three weeks ago

[Soyabuti]

Aldi is already done. Security at the door said, please another 3 to 5 in. That's responsible. Woolies, coles want money. Keep 1.5 .mts

[jaykaye]

Shouldn't be bringing them back right now... they were given ample time and warning to get home before the borders closed and if they didn't want to listen that's their problem..
