This x 1000. Was about to get the Bisto at Coles, saw Goldenfry, about half the price in real terms. Every bit as good, maybe better!

branners commented on [Unobtainable] Vodafone $250 240GB 1-Year Prepaid Starter Pack for $150 + 2000 EDR Points @ Woolworths
So when you add in the 10% ER discount and if you have a 5% off GC and then the $10 in points, it's $9.85pm for 20GB pm. Impressive value
