Shoppers go wild over new 'game changing' item from Kmart: 'OMG it's already sold out'
A clever new gadget from Kmart is earning rave reviews from Aussie pet owners who say it's saving them time, mess, money - and their sanity.
The $109 Pet Vacuum and Grooming Kit is flying off the shelves as shoppers discover just how effective it is for keeping their furry friends clean and their homes hair-free.
One pet owner, whose video is quickly gaining traction, demonstrated how the machine works wonders for her half-husky dog, Bailey.
'When I see tufts of hair coming out of her fur it means it's time for a brush,' she explained.
'This pet vacuum is going to completely change how we groom Bailey. She looks so soft and lush.'
The vacuum comes with three different power settings and a range of attachments designed to tackle all kinds of pet coats - including an electric clipper, de-shedding brush, grooming comb, and more.
'It was easy to set up and came with everything I needed,' the shopper added.
'I also have a cat that needs to be shaved every month and this vacuums and shaves at the same time.'

The all-in-one grooming kit promises to make pet care easier and tidier than ever.
The product 'gently removes loose fur while vacuuming' - which means no more sweeping up fur-covered floors after every grooming session.
Aussies have long turned to Kmart for stylish homewares, kitchen essentials, and trendy fashion buys - and now the beloved budget retailer is making waves in the pet care space too.
In the comments section of the video, other pet lovers couldn't wait to try it out for themselves.
'I have two rag dolls, a chocolate lab, and a pom - this would make life so much easier,' one said.
Another joked, 'I'd turn that thing on and my dog would run and hide.'
Whether you're the proud owner of a high-maintenance dog or just tired of living in a cloud of pet hair, this handy vacuum may be the best grooming gadget you didn't know you needed - and like most Kmart finds, it won't break the bank.

Reality star admits ‘too much cocaine and partying' as he reveals collapsed nose wrapped up in bandages
The dad-of-one gave his theory for the nose injury PARTY BOY Reality star admits 'too much cocaine and partying' as he reveals collapsed nose wrapped up in bandages A FAMOUS reality star has opened up about his wild partying and cocaine use after revealing his collapsed nose. Aussie Timm Hanly, who is known for appearing on The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise, sparked concern when he posted a video clip of his deviated septum. 4 Timm Hanly showed his collapsed nostril on Instagram Credit: Instagram 4 He had septoplasty to fix the issue Credit: Instagram He was inundated with questions from fans asking if cocaine use had anything to do with the injury. Addressing the speculation head on, Timm, 33, said: "We can't rule out that it wasn't from cocaine or partying 'cause I've done lots of that in my life." "But I stopped doing that about five years ago when I started Front Runner, and I still had two good nostrils when I ended my partying career." Front Runner is a sports and streetwear brand founded by Timm that has 120,000 followers on Instagram. The dad-of-one believes his nose issues more likely stem from some rough punishment in the boxing ring. He continued: "I did have a boxing camp after that (partying), which I got absolutely f***ing pumped in… my nose got broken a couple of times, so I'm gonna say boxing - but we can't completely rule out the cocaine fking conspiracy. "But yeah, those days are over... I'm done with all that. Everything I do now has a purpose." Timm had septoplasty - a procedure to rebuild and straighten the septum - and has shared his recovery on social media. He is married to Briana De La Motte and they have a nine-month-old daughter called Harper. They dated for six years before he found fame on The Bachelorette in 2019 as a group of hunks battled for the affection of Angie Kent. Bachelorette's Trista Sutter returns to Instagram to address 'split & breakdown' rumors after Ryan's cryptic posts He ended up finishing second to series winner Carlin Sterritt. The following year he struck up a romance with Brittany Hockley on Bachelor in Paradise, which is filmed in Fiji. The romance ended soo after the show wrapped and not long after the series final ended on TV, Timm and Briana announced they had reunited and were giving things another shot. 4 Timm is married and has a daughter called Harper Credit: Instagram

Do Trump's hardline tariffs and travel bans put off Brits from visiting the US?
Tariffs, travel bans, mass firings – if there's one thing you can be sure about with Donald Trump, it's that he'll make news. Constantly . That's even the case here in the UK, where most of his decisions have no direct impact. But is all that coverage having an effect on Brits hopping across the pond for a vacation? If you look at the dry numbers from the US National Travel and Tourism Office, you might think the answer is no. In January, the month of Trump's second inauguration, the number of UK visitors to the US was 5% higher than the previous January. February and April also saw more Brits going to the US than the same months in 2024, suggesting that far from putting people off, we may even be more keen to visit the country when it's run by Trump. ABTA, the British trade association for the travel industry, tells a similar tale. They 'haven't seen any significant changes in terms of UK-US travel post-Trump administration', a spokesperson told Metro, with 'no noticeable shifts away' from the States. But that may not be the full story. Australia-based tour company Intrepid Travel offers small-group trips to destinations as diverse as Nepal, the Galápagos Islands, Antarctica – and the United States. However, the latter has had a significant fall in interest over the past five months, with bookings from UK customers down 12%. That decline appears to be driven by one age group in particular: 21 to 30-year-olds, with whom bookings have fallen by almost a quarter. There was less of an impact for customers above that age bracket. Joanna Reeve, Intrepid's General Manager for the UK & Ireland, told Metro: 'While there is no way to know for sure what is causing the dip, negative perception of the US under the new administration could be playing a part in people's travel choices. 'New immigration rules and travel restrictions could be off-putting for potential visitors.' The country still remains popular overall, she said. According to the Office for National Statistics, the US was the sixth most popular country visited by UK residents in 2023 – though it wasn't far off Portugal and Greece in fifth and fourth place respectively. A survey for ABTA taken in summer last year – before Trump was elected, but while the presidential election campaign was in full swing – found the US came third after only Spain and France when people were asked where they planned to visit in the next 12 months. Even those who disagree with the direction of the Trump administration might want to consider visiting the US in order to mitigate its impact, Joanna suggested. She said: 'There are ways to travel there in a way that supports local people, like through supporting indigenous-led experiences. More Trending 'We're also encouraging people to visit and support the National Parks as they are facing huge cuts to their funding.' Interestingly, the attitude of young travellers with Intrepid – if they are indeed being put off by Trump – does not appear to reflect the broader UK. An Ipsos poll from just before Inauguration Day in January found 18 to 34-year-olds were the most likely age group in the UK to have a favourable view of the US President. However, 47% of Brits between those ages still disliked him compared to 31% who felt the opposite. Those aged 35 to 54 were 64% unfavourable, while 72% of those aged 55 or over felt the same.
