If possible, give Woolworths a big miss. I shop at Drakes, a family owned SA company. IGA another good alternative. Independant grocers and butchers even better

We only have an IGA in Moura. It is common knowledge that if you won division one of the lotto, you would be able to buy your groceries at out local IGA for 2 weeks before you are flat broke again.the quality of their groceries is pretty average too.
You get that out in the sticks
@puff typical mining town prices.The Springsure IGA has a loaf of bread at $12 for a 600 gr loaf on Par with our IGA's Prices. This is how they turn coal into gold. Alchemy!
@vocaloldfart That is a tad rich
@vocaloldfart Didn't realise you were so close. I might jump on the bike and come and see ya when I'm back from the Land of Smiles. Kicking back at Yeppoon myself.
I used to live Kangaroo Island which was shocking expensive. Used to work out of Moomba and driving to the rig once I passed Innamincka, stopping for my mandatory beer (we were banned from there but I refused to drive through the desert and pass a pub without stopping. I am Aussie after all, used to hide the car round the back) and they were selling petrol cheaper than on the island. Work that one out.
@puff My place s hard to find. opposite the town only garage not quite straight opposite.
@vocaloldfart Sweet. Be a month or so
@vocaloldfart no wonder that you drive for hours to go shopping in Rocky.
