Price Comparison shows Huge Savings
07-Jul-2009 Have you seen the Campbell live feature about the Onecard promotional gimmick used by the Australian owned Foodtown, Woolworths and Countdown.“Campbell Live found examples where the discounts offered to Onecard holders seem contradicted by the item's original price. You're told you're saving 50c, for example, but the item's non-discounted price suggests you're saving less than that - or not saving anything at all.” You can read more about this here.
Are Foodtown, Woolworths and Countdown just taking the mickey out of their customers?
I thought I would do a quick indicative online price comparison with Foodtown on some commonly ordered items (selected at random) for your reference which you will find below.
