I just saw today they raised the mince by $1. When did this start to happen?

    Yes I think they raised the price of the 500g pack too.

    Cattle industry projections January 2015

    • The Australian cattle herd is expected to decline to 26.8 million head by June 2015 – going from what was a 35 year high cattle herd to what will be a two decade low herd, in the space of just 24 months.

    • Australian adult cattle slaughter during 2015 is expected to decline 15% year-on-year, to 7.8 million head 2015.

    • Beef production is expected to decline in 2015, largely the result of a dramatic reduction in slaughter, to 2.91 million tonnes cwt – 14.1% lower year-on-year, which is actually a relatively normal annual volume.

    • After breaking the Australian beef export record for the third consecutive year in 2014, at 1.29 million tonnes swt, a significant decline is projected for 2015 – dropping 19% year-on-year, to 1.05 million tonnes swt.

      Wow, big drop there.

      Is there any mince that is more of a bargain? We buy turkey mince once a fortnight to make turkey burgers, with guacamole on the side, yummy. Also I've recently made a kangaroo mince ragu, which was great, we froze about 5 double servings in sandwich bags, after having 2 servings straight away. I think the kangaroo mince was more expensive though?

    I think they raised the price a couple of weeks ago for both the 500gm stock and the 1kg stock. I wasn't impressed either. I am guessing the 6 months down down agreement ended and they decided not to renew the offer on this particular product.

        I noticed this last week and I was most annoyed. I had a 10X points targeted offer on mince meat and a few other meat products but now it's not worth me using that offer.

    I buy beef mince for my dogs. I'll check the prices at the butcher now because this is a lot, $7/kg.
