Yeah I had assumed a smaller gap too. Or is that part of the collusion too - the appearance of competition and consumer choice?
I really need to shop at ALDI more.
ALDI is pretty terrible if you don't have a really basic White Australian diet. Lack of range has always been the reason I avoid doing big shops there.
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.
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.
