Guest Hayley370 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Sorry i know this is an exceptionally boring post but I would appreciate any advice! We are on a bit of an economy drive at the moment and I am wondering which is the best supermarket to use? At the moment I use woolies purely for convenience, because it is walking distance and I like to walk up there with the boys and stop at the park on the way home. Am I right in saying that woolies is quite expensive (is this like the equivalent of buying your groceries in m & s)? I tried Coles when we here before but I was wondering what some of the other supermarkets are like but without comprising quality. I buy homebrands where possible and have found woolies ones to be pretty good, just wondered what the others are like? I would liken my woolies to tescos and I am happy with it but just wondering if I can get the same stuff elsewhere for cheaper? Any thoughts or ideas will be greatfully received!

Stuju Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Hi, Just to let you know that Aldi are over here in Oz along with another cheap supermarkets called IGA and also bi-lo, check the net to see if they are in your area, the normal supermarkets like tesco are woolworths and coles.Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest oz migration Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Hi Hayley My wife advises me of the following : General use Bi Lo (brand products cheaper) Coles - quality and good price meat Aldi - additional choice of cheaper brand products Local greengrocers for quality and fair price (fruit lasts much longer than supermarkets. Hope this helps Kind regards Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
