Apparently due to an over-order. Deli assistant states there is "lots" left. Lowest price I have paid for chicken breast in 10 years or more. All fresh not old stock!

My local IGA has it for $7.99 p/kilo to give a comparison of price.
yea right, overstock aye…
I'm eating my $3.99 chx breast right now and is rather tasty. Will report back if any plumbing problems experienced
if you finishing today, normally its all good. mark down is only when expiry is soon. possibly next few days. Freezing it does help tho.
Just wondering do people own a second fridge or chest fridge to stock up when there are good bargains around? Ive been playing around with the idea and seems the best option is for a second fridge (chest freezers seem over priced). Would cost me around $1300 and i would use the bottom for booze. Around $100-$130 worth of energy cost per year. What you guys reckon worth having such a set up or not?
i've got a chest freezer
…and?
Negs for asking for more information. All he said was he has one.. how is that in any way useful?
I'll balance you back out, brezzo :)
recouping $1300 through bulk buying meat would be a tough ask, unless you eat a LOT of meat it probably would not be worth it.
a chest freezer doesn't cost anywhere near $1300, well not unless you are running a fish'n'chips shop.
Was thinking another one of these at around $1300 (237L freezing) http://www.appliancesonline.com.au/600l-samsung-side-by-side…
The remaining 363L fridge volume id use for drink and booze.
Chest freezer $568 (275L freezing) http://www.appliancesonline.com.au/275l-fisher-paykel-chest-…
Works out to roughly $732 extra.
Im 50/50
For convenience I think its a good idea if you have space for it, if you live far away from the shops you can save on petrol and time, you can prepare meals and freeze them to save cooking after a long days work, a second fridge is very useful around Christmas time and any parties you have.
Yeah definetely have plenty of space. Saving time and fuel stocking up on bargains seems the biggest benefit as i like cooking fresh each day, reheating just doesnt taste as good. Was thinking for parties and stuff having the fridge portion stocked up well on booze would be good and save money on having to buy ice.
$7 kg now.
whats with the $x p/kg rather than just $x/kg?
Isnt that kind of like saying ATM machine…..Probably because people are utter retards. At uni my professor said you cant use 71% for example as people have no idea what that is but rather need to use 7 out of 10 for the general populous. I thought he was having a laugh and after probing him three times a still couldnt believe he was dead serious.
They have to specify the unit of measurement for the weight and the price. Needs to say per rather than two or half etc, unless they specify it is open for interpretation. Or I could just be making that up…
I think its the same bullshit they implements for retards to know how much they are 'really' (i use this term lightly) paying. Not sure about other states but in SA the have to price per kilo and then in smaller font a price per 100g. People dont know fractions and percentages. They can work out if something is 300g and costs $9 that per 100g you pay $3. Just the falling IQ of the population. Im 25 and see it everywhere around me in my age group. Dont get me started on my generation and text messaging lingo, hate that so much and its almost unreadable.
END RANT :D
Don't get me started on your generation's bad punctuation and general grammar skills.
This is called Unit Pricing and is due to the ACCC actually: http://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/shopping-for-groceries/groc…
I think this is a good thing.
While your example is obvious and doesn't provide much benefit, it does help facilitate easy comparison of costs when products are of different sizes/weights. i.e. from link above: product X costs $7.62 for a 2.5 litre bottle vs product Y costs $5.74 for a 1.5 litre bottle. Which is better value? Sure you could work it out, but I'd rather not spend my whole shop running sums/divisions in my head or on a calculator. When it's on the label you can tell at a glance.
They have to specify the unit of measurement for the weight and the price
then you would write
$x per kg
or
$x/kg$x p/kg is not a unit of measurement and its just wrong.
nvm…had $3.99/kg chicken anyway
Hey, just wonder is it available for every cole in sydney?
No.
could be time to hit the gym
Great! Now I can proudly boast that I lift.
Is it still $3.99 ?
Are you a thigh Man, or a breast Man?
mmm, pick up several kilos and stick in the freezer
