    Um...my frequent shopper card? Other than that, nothing that is *specifically* Woolies. But I *will* be looking for that Slim Pasta there next time. Coles didn't have it.

    Slim pasta is usually in the health food section.

    However, I have found it with the pasta isle in the smaller stores.

    Chicken breasts
    Chicken thighs
    Black Swan low fat Greek yoghurt
    Be natural muesli bars
    Coon light cheese slices
    Meat or fish if we haven't been to the fish shop or bulk butcher recently.

    I usually buy fruit and veg at the market and non-perishables (tinned tomatoes, stock, oatmeal, rice, pasta, crackers etc) at Cash and Carry - both are cheaper than Woolies.

    I've seen Laughing Cow at A Coles (not mine, coz I haven't looked). Some is on special (reduced to clear) at my Woolies this week.

    Woolies also have Val Verde tomatoes with olives which (my) Coles don't have. Woolies also have the brown rice crackers I like. Not to mention the fuel is right there, so is a greengrocer, asian stores, etc. Who wants to tell me why I shop at Coles then? O.o

    I found the Changs noodles, I got the last 2 of the 3 on the shelf! The Slim Pasta was 'temporarily unavailable' in Woolies (there was a couple stuffed right at the back of the shelf though), and 3.69! Changs was a much better deal!! I did notice that the Angel hair Slim Pasta is fully gluten free (made with the same weird stuff as the Changs noodles), while the spaghetti one wasn't.

    I'm talking raw turkey breast. I don't like the crazy amounts of sodium in it like that processed junk!

    I have recently discovered well naturally sugar free chocolate, as well as some date based confectionary items... whilst they may not be healthy, there are not a lot of vegan treats out there, and everyone wants a treat every now and then.

    I am doing my level best to become a vegan at the moment, converting from vegetarianism.
