Where do you do your regular shopping? Have you ever wondered whether choosing to shop at one supermarket over another saves you money? Well, CHOICE is here to help.

CHOICE conducted a price comparison survey of more than 150 brand name products at Aldi, Coles and Woolworths to find out where to get the best deal on well-known brands such as Cadbury, Kleenex, and Uncle Tobys.

“Our price comparison found that across the range of 152 products we priced, brand name products were, on average, cheaper by 20% at Aldi compared to Coles and Woolworths,” says CHOICE Food Editor, Rachel Clemons.

“Some products did cost the same at Aldi as they did at Coles and Woolworths, and some were more expensive, but the majority of brand name products we surveyed were cheaper at Aldi. Savings went up to as much as 57%,” says Clemons.
