Australians have few options when it comes to saving on groceries at supermarket giants Coles and Woolworths, with a new report by Choice finding a price difference of just 75 cents between the two for the same basic items.
You can’t get your whole shop at Aldi. It’s great for what it’s great at, though. Aldi’s home brand is a class above the home brands of Colesworth, but tends to be priced at the same price or even cheaper. I usually get eggs, cheese, yoghurt, brekky cereals, biscuits, snacks and some veges there. Yes - basic ‘white’ staples.
I would likely get more frozen goods at Aldi, but when I do the grocery shop Aldi is the first stop. I don’t want to be roaming around for another hour or two with a trolley full of melting food.
Yeah I would agree that many of the home-brand food items are better at ALDI and the frozen stuff is also pretty good. I basically never go out of my way to visit an ALDI though, it’s always like “oh there’s an ALDI in this shopping centre that we came to for something else, let’s buy this thing we forgot in the main shop while we’re here”.

Crumpets rounds 6pk are $4.40 at colesworths (and frequently “half price” $2.20) and $1.89 everyday at Aldi. I’m done playing their stupid games.
