Kmart is selling out of a $6 cleaning product
Kmart's $6 pair of dust slippers is an item you 'didn't know you needed', according to one fan.
Leanne, who runs the account @homewithleanne, took her followers to the retail store to rave about the cleaning product.
'Kmart finds you didn't know you needed — these $6 dust slippers are perfect for cleaning your skirting boards,' she said.
'And when you're done just pop your soles in your washing machine.'
Social media users were quick to express their excitement over the find, with many saying how it would help them clean their home.
'Well, I know what my kids are getting for Christmas,' one joked.
Another said: 'Time to get dressed and head to Kmart!'
'Do they come in kids sizes,' another social media user asked.
One added: 'OMG yes! I hate the bloody skirting boards.'
'Wait my slipped disc purred at this,' another added.
Another commented: 'I need me a pair of these.'
'Running to get the dust slippers. Stop it,' one social media user commented.
One commented: 'You won the internet today! I'm adding to cart right now!'
'I've always wanted a pair of these for my mum's house, she has all floorboards and takes a very long time to sweep/dust! Amazing find,' one said.
Another added: 'I need this. Our house is HUGE. The skirting boards are endless.'
'I literally was thinking about cleaning/mop slippers today and looky loo they exist,' one said.

A Kmart spokesperson weighed in on the popularity of the item, which is starting to sell out.
'We love seeing how excited our customers get about discovering unique and affordable products in our stores, and this viral moment is no exception,' a Kmart spokesperson told news.com.au.
'At Kmart, we're always working to deliver functional and on-trend pieces that bring joy to everyday living, all at an affordable price. It's incredibly rewarding to see how our community shares their finds and creative ideas with such passion.
'We're so grateful to our customers like @homewithleanne who continue to inspire others with their Kmart hacks and home transformations.'
The item is set to return later this year.

Luxury Toorak mansion listed by ex-AFL boss Andrew Demetriou for $15.5m
Former AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou and his model wife Symone Richards have listed their opulent Toorak home with hopes of $14.5m to $15.5m. Agents for the high-profile couple have relaunched the marketing campaign to sell the 1930s-built property fronting 5 Tyalla Crescent, Toorak that the Demetriou family purchased in 2007. In that time frame they hired top-tier Melbourne interior designer David Hicks to redo the property while keeping its grand period character. The Demetriou family wants to downsize, but will sell first, so are marketing the Marcus Martin-designed home that blends classic architecture with modern family function. It has six bedrooms, a six-car basement, swimming pool and spa, and a landscaped rear garden with a firepit, trampoline and basketball court. Antoinette Nido, managing director Stonnington, Melbourne Sotheby's International Realty and Max Ruttner, managing director Stonnington, Melbourne Sotheby's International Realty, are handling the sale of the high-profile residence, saying that homes of this calibre rarely come to market. Ms Nido says the house has great proportions and spaces as well as a fantastic children's area upstairs, two studies and she likes the fact that the children's study is close to the kitchen and family room. 'You can be cooking while watching homework happen across the room,' Ms Nido said. She notes the house, positioned on 1100sq m, is close to schools including St Kevin's College Toorak, St Catherine's and Scotch College as well as public transport. 'The proportions are exceptional. It's a true 1930s Toorak home with a sense of grandeur from the moment you arrive.' A circular driveway leads to an imposing formal entry and lounge, with a private study and expansive open-plan family zone at the rear. The marble kitchen and large butler's pantry open to outdoor entertaining spaces that capture the northern light. The designer main bedroom suite has a walk-in robe, luxurious ensuite and balcony. Mr Demetriou was the chief executive of the AFL from 2003 to 2014. The Australian businessman, a former AFL player, is also a sports administrator. The listing comes as real estate activity lifts across Melbourne's prestige market, with buyers circling family homes in established blue-chip pockets. 'At the top end the market is pretty good,' Ms Nido said. 'There's a number of buyers who have made money from IPOs and are in the market for properties in the $15m to $50m range. They want good locations, a large land size, proximity to leading schools and good design. Some people specifically like character homes. 'At this level, it is not a one-size-fits-all market, with some buyers attracted to character-filled homes and others chasing more modern properties. But the fundamentals of natural light, connection to gardens and good amenities remain sought after.' Recent top-end sales in the area include 53 Rose Street, Armadale, the home of interior designer Melissa Giuffrida. It fetched close to $9m.

Penthouse shoots for Sydney coastal suburbs record
It has been billed as the most exclusive and prestigious offering Bondi has ever seen, perched on the oceanfront and connected to the coastline. Meet Pearl Bondi the $150m project just approved for Bondi's peninsula cliffside with north-east aspect, elevation and comprising a clutch of seven luxury homes aimed at established eastern suburbs families and downsizers. And Pearl's creator, top Sydney builder developer Central Element is set to rewrite Bondi's property history with the highly anticipated release of the Pearl Penthouse – the pinnacle of the project. Set to become the coastal suburbs most exclusive and high-end residence to date, with an asking price of $30m, the ultra-luxurious apartment is expected to smash the suburb record. The previous record was $24m in 2022, for Multiplex heir Andrew Roberts' 190sqm apartment in Notts Ave, Bondi Beach. The price equated to $126,000 per sqm. MORE: Waterfront deal falls over, then sells for $2m less The 328sqm penthouse offers four bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and a 17m east-facing frontage with uninterrupted ocean views. Central Element managing director Nathan Chivas expects Pearl to be popular. 'At its heart is the Pearl Penthouse, the most luxurious and prestigious offering the suburb has ever seen,' Mr Chivas said. 'Every element – from the 17‑metre frontage to the timeless interiors – has been crafted to create a sanctuary that connects deeply with Bondi's coastal energy. 'It's a hidden treasure revealed only to a privileged few and we expect demand for the Pearl Penthouse to reflect the rarity of what's on offer.' Central Element has gathered talented architects, landscapers and interior designers to create Pearl Bondi, which consists of two houses fronting Sandridge St and five apartments cascading towards the coastline with access to Wilga St. Three apartments are whole-floor residences with expansive terraces while the two ground floor apartments will each have a private pool. The Torrens-title houses will also have their own private plunge pools, outdoor entertaining space and wide ocean views. One has, facing north has a traditional layout with bedrooms upstairs while the southern house has the upper level dedicated to living and dining with two balconies capturing the view. The ultra-luxury project has been designed by award-winning architects MHNDU and the homes will share almost 500sqm of landscaped communal space as well as having their own external areas – up to 86sqm. The site is more than 2000sqm in a tightly-held pocket between Bondi and Tamarama with direct access to the coastal walk. Madeleine Blanchfield, of Madeleine Blanchfield Architects, has been engaged to design the interiors of the seven homes. She is well-known and highly sought after in the Eastern suburbs. 'Our design approach for Pearl will be centred on quiet luxury and refined simplicity – using natural materials, light and texture to create homes that feel timeless, grounded and intimately connected to their coastal surrounds,' she said. Materials such as travertine, American oak, Patagonia Pink quartzite and brushed stainless steel are all on the Pearl palette. Kitchens have stone island benches and Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances are included. Construction on Pearl Bondi will begin in the spring of this year and completion is planned for late 2027. Central Element has already broken suburb records in Sydney's east. Last year in Coogee it made a $20m off-market sale for a three-bedroom penthouse at Ballamac House.

Glamour couple Jordan De Goey, Aisha Jade McKinnon drop ‘surprise' life update
Collingwood forward Jordan De Goey and his former reality TV star girlfriend Aisha Jade McKinnon have announced the 'surprise' news they are expecting a baby girl. De Goey, 29, has been held to just five games for the Pies in an injury-plagued 2025 season, although he is in line for an AFL return this weekend. FOX FOOTY, available on Kayo Sports, is the only place to watch every match of every round in the 2025 Toyota AFL Premiership Season LIVE in 4K, with no ad-breaks during play. New to Kayo? Join now and get your first month for just $1. New Zealander McKinnon, who found fame as a contestant on Big Brother and is now a fashion designer and influencer, met the footy bad boy in early 2024 after linking up on Instagram. They went public with their romance at Collingwood's best and fairest awards last year and have since bought a farm together. McKinnon's Instagram bio says 'Fashion, Beauty and little Farm life' and the celebrity couple used that platform to announce their happy news. 'In the midst of our changing lives we were blessed with the greatest surprise of them all,' they captioned a joint post on Sunday. 'Baby girl coming soon.' The post featured an ultrasound, a sweet photo of De Goey holding McKinnon's stomach and a video that appears to show the footy star getting a gender reveal gift from his partner (see below). The announcement has received more than 35,000 likes and over 800 comments, including a number from De Goey's Collingwood teammates. 'Unreal! Congrats to both of you,' wrote Josh Daicos. Model and Daicos' partner Annalise Dalins added: 'The best news!! Congratulations you two! Sending (so much) love.' Oleg Markov and Isaac Quaynor both wrote: 'Congrats guys.' Musician Bec Wilcock gushed: 'This makes me so happy!!! Bring in the girl squad.' McKinnon told the Herald Sun last year the couple have similar interests and are loving working on their farm about an hour outside Melbourne. 'He's really lovely. We definitely value our privacy, we connected on that, and we both have unique jobs and support each other,'' she said. 'We were like pen pals until we met. We're getting our hands dirty at the farm transforming it and having fun.' De Goey has played 176 games for the Pies, including the 2023 premiership, but hasn't featured since round eight due to an Achilles injury. He was then concussed at training in a collision with Brayden Maynard, setting back his return further, but he turned out in the VFL last weekend and is in line for a senior recall. Pick No. 5 in the 2014 national draft, De Goey has had a series of alcohol and violence related issues in the past, including an arrest in New York in 2021 over an alleged nightclub assault.
