Out of stock online but store check shows most bigw stores have in stock, so heaps in store.

It says $7.48 but when you click on it, it turns to $6.73, ask in store to honour that price and all worked out well.

MOD: SOME STORES WON'T ACCEPT ONLINE PRICE WHICH IS MAKES BIGW'S POLICIES UNCLEAR, I SHOWED THEM THEIR WEBPAGE ON MY IPHONE AND THEY AGREED ON THE CHEAPER PRICE. PROBABLY VARIES FROM STORE TO STORE IN SOME CASES.

  • Do they price match their online store now?
    I tried previous in Melb CBD & the store manager said no.

    • I'm not to sure on the store policy, however I have done it before and all went well :)

    • From past experience their online price is usually the same as their store price.

      Manager at my local wasn't having a bar of matching the online price :(
      They had sh!tloads in stock selling at $7.48

  • Woolies is selling 24 rolls for $12, which it says 26c/100sheets. Quilton 3ply as well.
    So which is cheaper?

    • Um… let me see,
      which is smaller 50c/roll at Woolies or 37c/roll at BigW (if available)???

      • +1

        well i checked with the store stock checker thing and there is stock in every store near the fairfield area, like neeta city for example has heaps

      • hmm i dont know, what confuses me is that Big W says it's 190 sheets..
        i now know why i failed my maths back in school days..

        • +3

          Both 190 sheets… Woolies 190 sheets @ 26c/100 sheets = 50c/roll
          But then I've got brain damage & am drinking a nice bottle of red - free of course :-)

    Quilton is a little luxury for the bum. And every once in a while you have to spoil it.

      Buy Stephen Fry on QI last night said a live Goose was the best thing to wipe your bum.

      Its a Goose or nothing for my bum!

      • +2

        Fry has clearly never been attacked by a goose, no way I'd let one of those cranky bastards near my arse! :o

          Ah, he is a bird of a different feather, and might like it. But it was a literary quote.

          Rabelais claimed that a live goose was the best thing to wipe your bottom with. The full quote from Gargantua is: "'I have', answered Gargantua, 'by a long and curious experience found out a means to wipe my bum. The most lordly, the most excellent, the most convenient that was ever seen. I have wiped my tail with a hen, with a cock, with a pullet, with a calf's skin, with a hare, with a pigeon, with a cormorant, with an attorney's bag, with a Montero, with a falconer's lure. But to conclude, I say and maintain that of all the torcheculs, arsewisps, bumfodders, tail-napkins, bunghole cleansers, and wipe-breeches, there is none in the world comparable to the neck of a goose, that is well downed, if you hold her head betwixt your legs. And believe me therein upon mine honour, for you will thereby feel in your nockhole a most wonderful pleasure, both in regard of the softness of the said down and of the temporate heat of the goose, which is easily communicated to the bum-gut and the rest of the inwards, in so far as to come even to the regions of the heart and brains.'"

          And you thought there was no place for early 16th century French literature in Ozbargain!

          Lol, reminds me of an old joke:

          Bear & Rabbit meet in forest, greetings are exchanged, conversation ensues;
          Bear: Tell me Mr Rabbit, do you have problems with shit sticking to your fur?
          Rabbit: Why no, Mr Bear, none at all.
          Bear: Good.
          Bear proceeds to pick up Rabbit & wipe his arse with him! :p

    This is cheap.

    Going to stock up on toilet paper

    toilet paper marketing always confuses me. sheets, ply, rolls. so complicated for something that ends up in the toilet

    • +1

      Simple paradigm really: Quilton good, everything else bad! ;)

      • +9

        So let me get this right - Quilton is number one, and everything else is number twos?

    Toilet paper is like Maths these days :)

    • +2

      No shit is like maths - sometimes hard to work out. :-)
      (Note to self - don't post after a bottle of red!)

      • +6

        I hear that constipated accountants use a pencil to work it out! ;)

    • +7

      Yes, that is absolutely correct…a roll of toilet paper is very much like basic arithmetic, don't forget to carry one! :p

  • So I went to Big W at Rockdale to get some rolls. They have it advertised as $7.48 and refused to give me at this price.

    Apparently, online price is different than store price.

    After a bit of pushing the manager agreed to price match it once off only. Anyone else had similar experiences?

    • "After a bit of pushing……."

      Really?

      any more poo gags, anyone?

      Anyone?

      • +2

        That was a real stinker.

  • +2

    Would not honour the online price at Big W Westfield Doncaster (VIC). Still at 7.48 is worthwhile price.

    • What, 41.55c/roll. Up from 37c!!! 'Tell them they're dreaming!'
      Not worth the hassle to argue over 75c & probably be restricted to 1 pack at that price. I have a stockpile of sub-40c rolls. Besides, there is always the Goose!
      I'm set to auto-buy when the price falls below 40c. So no deal for me.

      • +1

        You start getting a bit desperate when you are down to your last 2 rolls of Quilton.

        • Supermarket wars are great for regular specials. The problem is not running out, but where to store them all. Down to last 36 sub-40c rolls, 6 month supply for our home of 2 people.

      • sorry to hear about that bruce, but they honoured the price at my local big w (had to show them their own webpage on my iphone!), probably varies from store to store i guess :/

  • -1

    toilet paper should be free! why do we have to pay just to wipe our bums? you shouldav seen people go down the public toilets and snatch a roll or a few.

    • You could always use your finger bro, that costs nuffin'!

      I would like to think that the day I can't afford the sheer indulgence of decent TP at a discount price to feather my bunghole will be the day I apply for my own 'Not For Resuscitation' order! ;)

  • Website price back to $7.48? Offers free delivery too, pity there's no stock left! :(

    • well thats a BUMMER
