my groceries are getting expensive, I notice there have been many price rises of 20-30%
from now on I’m printing out all receipts to keep track
tho looking at my pantry and fridge I am well stocked up , I could probably eat for 2-3 months and only buy some fresh fruit and veg

woolies on line used to have lists of your past shops with past prices, that way we could incidentally track prices, woolies stopped that, only current prices are listed
as I said, print outs are the only way

Olive oil prices have gone absolutely mad. I try to buy aussie made EVOO when I can anyway. Top quality and generally cheaper than the imported brands.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 10 months ago
the local ones are strong tasting, I just use oil for cooking so want very low olive oil taste
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Have you tried something other than olive oil for cooking? Coconut works well for many things, smoke point is a bit low, but not terrible.

Buy these tins when the new season oil arrives, and they are moving older stock out of the warehouse - half price easily. And plenty good enough for everyday cooking and non-salad uses.

I’m noticing it too. How the hell do I pay so much when I eat so little??

Rexona deoderant was almost 9 fucking dollars at Coles. Unreal.

That, Omo and dishwasher tablets are an on special purchase only.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 10 months ago
same, so many of my purchases are bulk on sale only
for example, last week I bought 2 5kg bags of rice at half price
even so my costs are through the roof
after a discussion with husband we are shopping at aldi from now on, this should save at least $400 a month
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Yeah I’m done with Coles and woollies. That’s literally double what it was a couple of weeks ago.

I’m kind of glad I went back to hand wash because the Earth Choice dish soap costs $2 a bottle compared to dishwasher detergents

That’s fucked… the Prince stuff at Aldi isn’t bad
