Woolworths has followed its new 85c loaf with more lower prices, this time on mince, carrots, nappies and long-life milk.

A large tray of regular beef mince will now cost $5.00 per kg, and carrots will sell for $1.15 for a 1kg bag in New South Wales, Queensland Victoria. Brown Onions will sell for $1.00 for a 1kg pack in Western Australia, South Australia, the Northern Territory and Tasmania.

Woolworths said the lower prices on these everyday basics would reduce the cost of living for Australian families.

Over recent weeks Woolworths has also reduced the price of Devondale Longlife Milk 2 litre to $2.00, Homebrand Nappies to $11.00, Sanitarium Up n Go 12pk to $11.99 and 24pk Quilton Toilet Tissue to $12.00.

Woolworths managing director of Australian Supermarkets and Petrol, Tjeerd Jegen, said: “Woolworths has listened to our customers and cut ongoing prices on products they buy the most. These are staples that families put on the table every day and these cuts can really help with the budget.”

“Our ongoing price reductions on this range of products starting with our 85c Homebrand white bread demonstrate to our customers that Woolworths remains Australia’s lowest price full range supermarket across our customers’ whole shop.”

“This is just the start of a range of savings we know will make a real difference to our customers,” he said.
