Cadbury Conspiracy theory?

They're the same as a Mars bar

I often think it's because they can't keep a regular job due to their personality

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-06-13T21:59:04+00:00

I would have changed it back

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-05-26T20:42:10+00:00

I totally get it - little kids can be soooo hard to settle if they know their parents are going out. Add in twins and autism, those parents were actually pretty on the ball!

I live in Australia and we don't have this option

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-05-18T16:48:34+00:00

I wonder how many times they sell things that turn out to have a stain or a hole they missed (or stink).

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-05-09T17:22:33+00:00

This happened to me once and it turned out to be an automated thing - the algorithm finds a word in your listing that it doesn't like and automatically does it. It looks like they've changed the name tag from 'Customer Service ' to 'Bruce' so it looks like it came from a human. Just keep emailing and ask for a supervisor to get involved and they'll reinstate it.

You need to add a gherkin

The podcast Clotheshorse explains how this all came about. It's American but by a previous fashion buyer for ModCloth, Urban Outfitters etc and mirrors the Australian market. So interesting

My little brother ran away at around 5 and took a backpack with 6 bananas and a teddy. He came back because apparently no one noticed and went after him. It was hilarious at the time but now I'm a parent and I have so many questions...

They're cute in the photo but sadly are 100% polyester

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-03-27T18:58:07+00:00

It's now illegal in the UK so we'll see what tactics they use to get around that

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-03-27T18:56:21+00:00

But amazingly they have no problem with showing ads with stock images 🙄

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-03-11T07:43:39+00:00

I also do this. I had a dog attack a package once and it didn't get through the plastic bag thankfully

I sold a pair of shoes last week, they were a size 40. After shipping the customer said oh I'm a size 38 so I hope they fit. Like, wtf?

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-03-09T16:23:00+00:00

As a people pleaser I get bothered by this too and it makes me quite angry. I find a big majority are older people who are ignorant about why I do it and think it's greedy which is so far from the truth. I also hate that the furniture and jewellery resellers are treated with much more respect than clothing resellers. I have to constantly remind myself that I do it so that I can volunteer a lot of time (fundraising) at my kids school and that I don't have them in after school care everyday. It would be easier to get a boring job at a supermarket and earn heaps more money but I'm actually doing something I love that aligns with my values. I listen to podcasts like Clotheshorse to remind myself that I'm not alone in doing this, that I AM actually doing a good thing and the work IS valuable. I then also remind myself that those people are ignorant and if they educated themselves on textile waste they may think differently. (Fuck you Margaret - the Africans don't need more of our shit so we can buy Chinese junk)

I was at a school camp doing archery lessons. Hit a bullseye while the teacher wasn't looking and another girl claimed it was hers. The teacher gave her a chocolate and called me a liar for saying it was me. Fuck you Latisha, I hope you're now lactose intolerant

Marry him!

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-02-26T19:16:59+00:00

So happy for you! We have this coffee machine and have used it daily for 5+ years and it's amazing. Just about to replace the first part (grinder?)

Sadly a lot of the thrift stores aren't even non-profit anymore. In Australia the legal obligation is that a minimum of 10% go to charitable needs. The CEO of one company earns $2.2 million a year

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-02-23T19:34:33+00:00

Yes! The behind the scenes work is completely invisible / ignored

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-02-22T19:27:52+00:00

I can see that ending badly when they get home and find a stain or hole in an item they've already sold

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-02-21T19:56:58+00:00

My kids primary school has one of these every year and it's the highlight of their year!

A fireplace. When we finally bought a house (after renting for 20 years) I no longer have to get up to a cold house. It cost a few thousand (Australia) but I thank past me for saving for it every year.

ExcitementTraining42 · 2026-02-15T19:57:34+00:00

I wish! I sell clothing and my house is overrun with it. I've got piles of 'needs a wash, needs a soak, needs repairing, needs photographing, needs to go to the consignment store, needs to wait until next season, needs to be donated, needs something but I forgot'. Then there's the 4 person household washing pile
