You got two options here. So which one are you going to choose? hmmmm?
I go for whatever the cheapest; Woolworths, Coles, Aldi, my local greengrocer, Catch…
Proud to shop at a German chain. Aldi for me my friend.
Until they introduce AI surveillance, and then I’m done for.
by the by. I think they use the ai to monitor their employees. but then again, too each their own.
how “un-australian” 😆
None of the above (unless absolutely necessary)
I can get almost everything I need from Aldi and IGA.
The IGA prices are so jacked up bro 😖
Yes they are; Because they small businesses, which actually pay their employees a living wage and don’t have the buying power of the big supermarkets.
Even then, all the IGA locals around me and larger IGAs on surrounding towns are still cheaper than Safeway and Coles.
idk how much they pay their workers but I suspect that since iga is the distributor, they get most of the cut. I’m not faithful to any chain anyways, the post is mostly a joke
If you’re far enough outside of the cities (or willing to drive) you can also often buy direct from farms, cutting out the middlemen that all demand their own cut. And don’t forget places like NQR and The Reject Shop for non-perishables.
I would also urge people to find their local community garden and/or food bank. If you need the support, there is no shame at all in accepting it from your community. If you don’t currently need the support, offer to do what you can to help those that do need it. The more we can help each other, the less we need corporations like Coles and Woolworths.
