Go onto any IGA and there will be loss leaders esp chicken meat dairy.
One near me had lamb legs around 7 or 8 $ a kilo. Get em in to buy the basics and pray they buyer higher margin priced stuff at the same time. Good business tactic. |

I go to IGA to buy $9 per kg rump slabs and $12 scotch and then go to Coles for others. Although i notice that IGA bananas are often < $3 kg where as Coles standard now is $4, at least IGA is local money.

Not only that, the meat is better quality than the other two criminal corporations where I NEVER buy meat. The only other place I get meat is Aldi, Pork mince under $8 a kilo (great for taco's pasta, lasagna, Asian Mince Recipes etc) and I get the burger mince for home made hamburgers. Quote:

I would not believe a word he utters and I do not give him my money. He has also been known to steal meat when doing kills for local farmers. Local farmers recently discovered that they consistently get an additional 30-40kg of meat per animal when sent to the abattoir than when he processes them. But all that is getting very off topic.

So where does the RBA shop to get their "basket of goods" prices to calculate inflation?
By the sounds of it, certainly not IGA.

Thomas Dux?
More on-topic, a friend took a bath on his tidy and central inner-city studio auction last weekend. Reserve 400, sold after the auction (same day, on site) for barely 360. Part of me thinks maybe the market is down, part of me wonders if the agent hustled him just to close a sale. |
