Red Island Extra Virgin Olive Oil 250ml $2.75 (Was $5.50) @ Coles

530

The main reason for this deal is that it's the cheapest olive oil in 1L or less package since Aug.
I only use around 1L every 4-5 months so 3L+ bulk can is not my option. The taste fades over time once opened.

I guess it's the last chance to get $11/L extra virgin olive oil before price goes up.
I just bought 12 bottles of 250mL. stock up for the next 12 months in anticipation of inflation.
If it's OOS, go for rainchecks, quantity limit is 6.

        Nah, Wog.

        We would never waste EVOO on fish and chips

    It's due to supply & demand and not inflation.
    There is a huge shortage of olive oil from the southern Mediterranean countries due to the mild winter they had.

      I thought Red Island is Australian?

        I thought Red Island is Australian?

        EU olive oil has more that doubled in price resulting in higher demand of Australia EVOO, thus the price increase…

      It's due to inflation.
      lack of supply causes inflation,
      which is the same reason for oil price (no more supply from Russia) and labour cost (people just want to work 3 days a week only but get paid for 5 days.)

      • lack of supply causes inflation

        I guess you're right…

        It will be this way probably for another year if they get a better crop next year.

  • Great deal for this quantity and price.

  • The spout in the larger size leaked. Used this brand last year. Is this one better?

    I'm using Cobram (same company) 750ml currently and will probably take 6 months to finish.

    • CMIIW but Red Island is their "budget" version

      When it first came out I thought it was OK but my recent purchase was seriously bad. Tasted as if it had gone off. I’ve stopped purchasing since.

      • Thanks for the feedback. That's not good

    Got the 3L can from Woolies for $35 ($1.17/100ml), this deal is $1.10/100ml so comparable

    So apparently worldwide Olive Oil distribution has been in the hands of the Mafia for many years, and the thing is there is a good chance that nobody has actually tasted 100% olive oil ever in their lives, due to dilution by numerous middlemen…
