IGAAldi takes this 11-item budget school lunchbox basket at $41.47, beating Woolies ($45.25), IGA ($45.35), and Coles ($44.53), though cherry-picking the cheapest item at each store gets you down to $36.40.
Woolworths wins this 15-Minute Mid-Week basket at $57.69, which is $16.91 under Coles, but cherry-picking the cheapest item at each store gets you to just $39.39, a saving of $18.30 over the best single store.
Woolworths wins this week's basket at $251.40, edging Coles by $4.93, but cherry-picking the cheapest item at each store cuts the total to $198.16, a $53.24 saving over shopping at Woolies alone.
Aldi wins the school lunchbox basket at $43.26, which is $16.91 cheaper than IGA, $12.54 under Coles, and $3.72 less than Woolies, and cherry-picking the best price at each store trims it to $41.25.
Aldi wins this 11-item school lunchbox basket at $41.47, saving you $8.33 over Woolies, $8.66 over Coles, and a full $15.10 over IGA, cherry-picking adds only $1.99 more in savings and probably isn't worth the extra stop.
Aldi wins this Baby & Toddler Essentials basket at $58.43, saving you $25.43 over IGA and $35.11 over Woolworths, but one missing item means most families will still need a second stop.
Woolworths has Millie Moon Luxury Nappies Size 2 Infant 48-pack for $8.75 this week, exactly half the regular $17.50 price, that's $8.75 cheaper than Coles and $1.24 cheaper than Aldi right now.
Coles has Marquise Hypoallergenic Newborn Nappies Size 1 (up to 5kg) for $15.00 this week, which is $2.00 cheaper than Woolworths' $17.00, making it the clear pick for parents watching every dollar in the newborn stage.
Woolworths wins this week's Cuugo basket at $69.79, which is $6.07 under Aldi and $27.82 under IGA. Cherry-picking the cheapest store per item gets you to $62.81, a $6.98 saving over Woolies alone.
