How accurate are Woolworths store stock levels that are posted online?

I am looking at checking the stock levels for supplies before I battle the hordes at the local Woolies. It says Stock Levels are updated every 2 hours for each store. Does anyone know if this is accurate?

  • well i was at woolworths earlier today, and for the firs time in about 2 months, i actually saw tissues on the shelves. I think the horde buying is dying down

    • +3

      Not in my area. I've tried several supermarkets over the past few days and no loo paper, flour, pasta etc.

      • So OP, what is your question again?

      • What time did you do your battle? Do it in the morning as soon as they open.

        • Yeah I'm going to make the trip out in the morning to get there at 8am.

          • @TheOtherLeft: Good luck! Don't just go to 1, try other Woolies too!

            • @brokenglish: Yeah there's a Woolies, Coles and IGA within a few hundred metres of each other. Plus an Aldi in the next suburb.

              Last weekend I did try a different Woolies bang on at 8am and the loo paper, tissues and flour shelves were bare so I don't think they got restocked overnight.

  • No hordes at my local.

  • +1

    Its only accurate at the minute its typed… 2 mins later stock has been sold.

    Aldi have had PLENTY of dunny rolls at most stores I've been in this week. (4 stores)

  • +4

    It's probably only accurate if it says out of stock

  • disappointed i saw almost no specials instore :(

  • Max is 20% off, hardly anything 50% off

  • +1

    I go to Coles now, at least they have more stuff

    Less empty selves and more special

  • Just back from Coles/Woolies in my area. I got to Coles at 8:03 and got one of the last packs of loo paper and flour. Then went to Woolies to see if it was any better. Nope. It was mental there were so many people and the carparks were full. And no, the woolies online stock levels do not match the store stock even after the 2 hr delay.

    I also went to Officeworks for a new office/gaming chair and they've been cleaned out as well. People were even buying the floor stock.

  • I've definitely been screwed over trying to find cheap ice-cream that was on here at woolies before. They said they had stock online but either the staff had hoarded it for themselves and it hadn't been put through the register (pre-covid), or it is out of sync.
