Coles, Woolies - I see what you did there!

Coles dan Woolies (read: Woolworths) adalah supermarket yang paling glamer kat Aussie. Glamer la daripada IGA Foodland kot. 
Dan family aku adalah peminat tegar Coles.
  1. Sebab harga dia lebih murah drp kat Woolies
  2. Sebab bahagian bakery dia memang ada banyak yang boleh dimakan (halal/vegetable emulsifiers)
  3. Sebab dapat docket untuk diskaun isi minyak kereta kat Shell. Hehe. Woolies pun bagi docket jugak. Tapi sebab aku suka Coles, so punya suka la nak pilih Coles jugak. Huahuahua

Aku pun tak paham why some people like going to Foodland. Dah la mahal. Macam tak banyak pilihan. Tapi, aku rasa diorang ni South Aussies totok kot. Jadi asobiyah tu lebih sikit, mesti nak sokong 'barangan buatan Malaysia South Australia'.

Cuma kadang-kadang tu diorang buat promo yang bukan-bukan dan tak masuk akal.
Maybe salah label kot. Tapi...hmmm.... entah la.

Korang tengok ehhh....

See.... This is a steal!
Jimat weiii, baq hang!!!! 
@___@
Now you tell me.... WHY should you pay 10? WHY?!!!
WHY?!!!


WHY PAY $10????!!!! WHY?!?!?!??!??!?!??!?!?!??!


And this pre-packed mince meat.... I bet is for the FOREVER ALONE lah kot
Tak menahan aku menengoknya.

Nak beli buat bakso, dapat la buat seketul meatball gamaknya. Hahaha. 
Coles really needs to make some profits. Tak cukup kot pelaburan aku tiap-tiap minggu dok shopping sakan tu.




This has got to be the ultimate bachelor's meal! WHAT A STEAL!



Hmmm...
Itu yang aku tak beli. 
Ye la kan... sebab halal meat biasanya MrHubby gi beli kat tempat lain.


Yang bahagian fresh fruits/vege pulak... macam broccoli ni.
'Still fresh' ni kira macam 'reduced to clear' la jugak. Tapi celah mana ke jadi diskaunnya kalau harga asal $5.18? @____@



Or when we got 20% off their STILL FRESH broccoli!




Dan bila masuk summer,  summer fruits are the best! 
Cherries, strawberries, plums, peaches, apricots, nectarines.....
Mangoes are bliss!!!


When this intense deal on Mangoes hit the shelves!


But wait!!! 
1 for $2.
and 2 for $4.50 !??!
Well played, Woolies! Well played! 
And these blueberries...
Erkkk... mahainya humang aiiii!
No wonder it is SUPER SPECIAL!
When they finally lowered the price of blueberries and allowed us to get TWO PUNNETS FOR $600!!! INSTEAD OF THE USUAL ONE!



Cabaran lain bila shopping kat Coles or Woolies adalah... bila ada benda-benda lain yang kadang-kadang susah aku nak explain kat  Lil Adam.

They even gave us EXTRA SEEDS in their seedless watermelon! HOW KIND!
SEEDLESS
"Why is it called seedless if it has seeds, Mama?!"
-_____________-




Bakery section is my favourite.
Sebab aku suka makan. Aku boleh pusing-pusing bahagian makanan berjam-jam, sebab nak beli macam-macam untuk dimakan dan dikudap. Makan dan kudap kira lain-lain bagi aku.
It makes things worse bila aku kadang-kadang cuba educate Lil Adam macam mana nak tau barang tu murah ke tak.
What a struggle!


THIS DEAL ALMOST SEND THE STORES INTO BANKRUPTCY!When they did a ***SPECIAL*** price on Mini Star Biscuits so we didn't have to pay $3 anymore.




I see what you did there, Coles.
Patut la dok banyak lagi pavlova base tu... mahal yang amat sangat.Sampai takde orang nak beli.


This incredible deal on pavlova bases was SOOooooOoOooooo HARD TO PASS UP!


Deals like this don't happen everday, myte!!!
Untuk aku yang ada anak yang suka makan cereal...alamatnya papa kedana la kalau kena beli cereal harga cenggini. Huhuhu.


AND DON'T EVEN GET US STARTED ON THEIR CHEAPER THAN DIRT CEREAL!



Haihhh.. itu pun Coles tetap menjadi pojaan hatiku.
Nak buat macam mana?
Dah kalau aku rasa pegi ke Coles tu adalah umpama jalan-jalan dia Paris (macam pegi Tesco kat Malaysia dolu-dolu...).
Pantang MrHubby ajak, menggelintat la aku nak ikut.

  2. hahaha... ya kak. even in Malaysia also I had experience the same thing. sometimes this supermarket's marketing strategy really left me speechless.
    Either they underestimate their customer or they overestimate the competency of their marketing team.

    Kalau tak alert, kena tipu hidup2 sia2 je...
