Went into Priceline (Joondalup) today to get some Dove soap. The single bars are usually 99c each at normal price. There was an offer advertised at 3 for 2 on all Dove products. I bought 6 bars and they scanned at $3.96. Can't see the single bars on the website though.
I also got a Treseme pack with 900ml shampoo, 900ml conditioner and a large can of hairspray for $9.99, great price!
Are the single bars normally $1, I would of swore that they aren't. Usually you can only get them at that price if Aldi or Reject Shop have them on special.
They're always 99c when I buy them at the Joondalup store, they have the original ones, pink breast cancer ones and the shea butter ones all 99c.
Dang!… as a die-hard OzBargainer, it's now my sworn duty to move to Joondalup just for the bargain soap :)
Most places near me (North Ryde, NSW) sell them for around $4.50 for a 2 pack. Woolworths and Priceline sell them online nationally for that price too:

The only ones I see selling for $1 to $1.50 around here are the parallel imports - easily identified because the packaging has lots of writing in various foreign languages, whereas the local packaging is all English.
I'm curious, jendownunder, are the ones you are buying at Priceline, Joondalup, local Australian product or parallel imports? I ask because I don't think I've ever seen the local product sold as individual bars. Thanks.
They are blue & white boxes, not really sure if they are imports… would post a pic if i knew how..
No problem. Was just curious. Thanks.
The box colour isn't relevant.
If anyone is curious, check out this photo, which shows an example of a parallel import packaging.
They have them at Southland VIC Melbourne SE. Expires 26/8/13 Made in Germany.
Following up on this, when I was at bigw yesterday the 4pk said made in indonesia on the back. But a packet I bought a year ago is identical to the ones at priceline, and that was bought from WW in a 4pk.
Perhaps the regular stores have swapped to the parallel import types, and these are the original?
Whatever the case they feel like dove soap and 67c is an unbeatable price
Works out well for the 1L pump body wash too … priceline have it for $9.99 usually (around $12-$13 in coles and woolies) and rarely on special for that size.
