Most are currently on special at Woolworths, as are some at Coles, for $3.00. Maybe trying to mask the price rise for a little while?
I only ever buy them when they are on offer. Between all the different brands and the different chains, something is usually discounted each week.

They go on special every second week. And if theyâre on special at Coles this week then they wonât be on special at Woolies. But next week theyâll be kn special at Woolies but not Coles.
I donât understand the half price sales either. They happen so often. Why not just split the difference and sell at the half way mark ever week? Instead of selling $2 chocolate bars at $1 every second week, why not just sell them at $1.50 every week?

Half price specials draw in the punters more than a slightly lower standard shelf price, then you slug them full price on the essentials.
I feel so ripped off though when theyâre $2 and wonât buy them until next week when they are Half Price at $1 of maybe even cheaper at Better Than Half Price at 85c.
They must still be making a profit at that price, so what is their markup? 200%? 300%?

Doesnât matter when one of the major chains has them half price every single week.
About a year, in the boxes of three.
These are fairly new though.
Drumstick + Messina vegan ones are quite nice.

End of an era.

Massive news. An end of Australian Icon, even though production shifted overseas many years ago. Will be interesting how this affects the Supercars next year and into the future as many deals and partnerships were still in the works/about to begin.

Not surprised, their last ditch push towards SUVs hasnât worked. Thought GM might try and stick it out at least a couple more years though but the writing has been on the wall with most of their dealership network shutting down in the last few years.

Bloody terrible. Literally ripped a hole in my heart.

That Seven News story missed a vital part of why General Motors is pulling out of Australia. As reported by other news outlets, General Motors will no longer be making right-hand drive vehicles world wide.

A GM statement says the company will sell its Thailand manufacturing plant to Chinaâs Great Wall Motors. The plant at Rayong is where most of Holdenâs SUVs and utes are currently made.
The end of Holden brand will affect the companyâs sponsorship of two Aussie Rules clubs (Collingwood in AFL and Central Districts in SANFL) plus Supercars. It remains to be seen whether the value of the next broadcast deal will be affected.
I hope the testing track in Lang Lang in Victoriaâs Gippsland region will be sold and retained, and not abandoned.
