Is just me or is shopping at coles just a fantastically shit experience. Too many people, isles too narrow, glitchy security gates, not enough places to get bags, staff stockings the shelves while you shop. Maybe it’s the stores I shop at but, I can say my experience hasn’t been great.

After those goddamn gates closed whilst I was halfway through and tore up my favourite pants I swore off Colesworth unless absolutely necessary. We switched to IGA and NQR and saved about $50 on our weekly groceries and don't have to pack our own bags

Fuck Coles. Fuck Woolworths. Shop at your local independent or ALDI if you must.

My local IGA is so much nicer than my local coles. The only problem is the range isn’t as extensive.

I haven't been in ages. Fortunately for me, Aldi and the grocer/butcher seem to have everything I need.
