About these prices

Coles and Woolworths prices are their online prices for delivery or click & collect. Aldi doesn’t sell groceries online, so its prices are the ones listed on aldi.com.au, which Aldi says can vary by store. All three are checked daily; prices in your local store can differ, and specials change weekly. Unit prices are worked out from each product’s pack size. Aldi is checked by our own price bot; Coles and Woolworths block automated access, so their prices are collected through a third-party scraping service. Methodology

Important information

How price compare works. Prices are collected automatically from retailer websites and may be delayed or wrong. Our bargain verdict is an automated assessment based only on the prices we've recorded. It isn't a guarantee, and retailers may sell for less in-store or through other channels. We aren't affiliated with the retailers shown. Trademarks belong to their owners. Methodology

How we make money. Some links on this page are affiliate links. If you click one and buy or sign up, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. We don't compare every product or provider on the market. Affiliate disclosure
