Bi-Lo +

Coles/Bi-Lo are up there with woolies this week with 152 specials, but not as many 50% off though. The top special is that very odd cupboard stuffer, Heinz Chicken 85g $1 (Save $1.05, 51% off). There's also Tip Top Raisin Toast 520g $2.29 (Save $2.30, 50% off), John West Tuna Tempters 4 x 95g $2.99 (Save $3, 50% off), and Grain Waves Chips 175g $1.84 (Save $1.84, 50% off). Lots of other personal items are 50% off too, so worth a look if you need to freshen up a bit. My pick this week goes to Sorbent Extra Thick Toilet Tissue 8pack $3 (Save $3, 50% off). Rarely do I buy tp now unless it's on special, especially with these sorts of savings (unless nature demands it however!) Have a great week everyone!

287 specials from the group this week, lots of non-food items topping out the list. If you call alcohol a food, then in theory Liquorland takes out the top spot with a Bottle Stoneleigh Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 1ea, $24 (Save $24, 50% off). (I didn't count vitamins as food ;)) Looks like Woolworths has done a Campbell Newman on Coles, annihilating them when it comes to the specials on offer.
