Here’s what people are saying about Coles online …

Evie Tate – “I started when I was pregnant to make things easier and have never looked back. My 3 & 5 year old love to help unpack the crates which is so much less stressful than the “help” they give me when we go to Coles shops. Always fresh and love the samples”

Pritika Huckstepp – “ I get mine delivered and I love it saves so much time so thank you Coles for my life so easy :-)”

Maxine Midson – “My favourite things about Coles online is the kids aren’t running around the store, they love waiting for the truck to arrive and they think he is bringing us presents”

Kirsty Northcott – “Would like to say how impresses I am with your fruit and veg boxes. Always fresh, lovely tasting fruit and veg. Very happy. Thanks Coles online!”

  • Once a hesitant online shopper - now I'll never look back!

    After taking a look at another supermarkets online shopping about 2 years ago, I was totally confused and put off even trying as it was not an easy set up. Recently I tried Coles online shopping and could not be happier. I got free delivery before Christmas, all my groceries were available, and delivered fresh by a friendly driver.

    The first time, it took me a while but since then I have used previous orders and lists to order from and now there is no looking back. I love that the specials are listed so i don’t miss them and that it can all be done from the comfort of my own home. We save money as I have the time to look for specials and don’t have to take hungry kids shopping with me!

    I love that I can add to my order up until a cut off point (much better than the other supermarket I tired) as I often forget things and this way can add them easily.

    Overall I would highly recommend Coles Online Shopping to everyone – it’s one less stress out of my week and I could not be happier!

    Oh, and getting Flybuys points online makes it even sweeter!

  • Excellent service

    Having small children and a husband who works away from home, I find grocery shopping a bit of a hassle, this service is fantastic for me in our situation.
    The range to chose from is great, the quality is always high – even for fresh produce, and their staff are so great and friendly! Thank you Coles!

  • Amazing service!

    Amazing service! Will definitely be shopping like this from now on! We have a ridiculously steep driveway and the gentleman who unloaded our order was fantastic and very friendly. We have 4 kids and 2 very big dogs so there was a lot to unload. Products that I had chosen that were not available were all upgraded and weRe excellent value for money. Well done Coles!

    I had never order my groceries online before. What a surprise to find all my groceries I had picked deliverd to the door by a friendly deliverer, wanting to know if I was happy with the service and delivered on time! WOW, will definitely do this again!

  • Impressive!

    I started shopping for groceries online when I was 8.5 months preggies with #2 & have always used Woolworths. I tried Coles before they upgraded their website but found it too confusing. But that has certainly changed. The website is really user friendly as well as the delivery guy – had my groceries taken all the way into the kitchen

  • Love the convenience

    I tried the coles online shopping for the first time last week and loved it! I find it sometimes an overwhelming task to get out and go shopping with a 7 month old and often dread doing the shopping. I love that I could go online and browse all the things I needed and have it parodied for and sent to my home. No wheeling through a supermarket with a crying baby out trying to pack and unpack the car! Very happy with this service and will be doing this more often now

  • great

    this town has only just recently got into the delivery side of things. the online shopping process was so easy to do and the driver is nice and really helpful and helped unpack the groceries
    the kids really loved the experience and were so excited to see the truck and have a visitor bringing goodies
    i would suggest giving it a go

    i have used wolworths delivery too

  • Very impressed

    I wasn’t sure about the whole concept of online shopping for groceries but was pleasantly surprised by easy it all was. The food was delivered within the agreed timeframe, exactly what I ordered and nicely packed. Will definitely be looking to use the service again.

  • Easy and convenient

    I found this to be a convenient service, You can shop at home when you have time a it can provent you from buying things you really dont need. The best part is once the shopping is complete you get to choose the time frame you want it delivered and get a estimate cost for the items you ordered, you can also change it and add things you may have forgotten if you put your order in earlier enough and you make the changes before the cut off time they give you.

  • Perfect for a busy family

    I love this service and the recent improvements have made it even better! I recently had baby number 3 and without coles online we would have lived on takeaway for the last 9 months! Plus now I don’t have to drag 3 kids around the supermarket. Any issues, it’s easy to call and the staff are happy to help anyway they can. The system remembers your last few orders and creates a list of usuals from your fly buys card. Some may find this to personal but I love it. It makes it easier and faster to shop. I would recommend that any mum give them a go. Especially with your first delivery being free at the moment.

  • Bliss for a new mum

    I must admit that I was a little skeptical of online shopping when it first became popular. I mean, I’m a fussy apple person, I like to be able to ‘peruse the merchandise’! But after my second bub was born, I had to start prioritising certain things to make life a bit less stressful, and outsource when possible. Grocery shopping was one of those things I just didn’t need to cart the kids in and out the car for each week. So I gave Coles online a go. The process was super easy and when I put my flybys details in…. BAM! pretty much everything I purchase flooded straight into my ‘regulars’ list (including a guilty cherry ripe or two

  • No more supermarket shopping in person for me!

    I started Coles click and collect shopping because I was struggling with bubs to make it to the shops. I found it was so easy. Yes the first time took a while but now my food preferences are saved I can do it in a 20 min nap. I found I save money because I only buy what I need. The cons are I have had a few bloopers like getting a small pack of steak so thinking I needed to increase the quantity to 2 on the next order and ending up with 2 packets. I was disapponted that I purchased 3 yoghurts and all three packs expired in 4 days which clearly I am not going to eat 12 tubs of youghurt in 4 days- that was poor form. The only other thinb I miss is getting thd discounted items but that is ok. There is also a few issues with some of the flybuys offers not being available to me. I.e I spent over $ 120 but it would not allow me to use my points voucher-disappointing

  • Coles Online

    After reading the reviews by Mom’s community members I have decided to give online shopping a go. It looks like it will be easy to do and less time consuming than travelling to the shops and waiting for a checkout to finally open due to only one or two being in operation!

  • Easy to use website

    Website was easy to use and I found it easy to navigate through the website. Driver was great, very friendly and carried the groceries into the house. Delivery times were good. Should have more free delivery days. Would recommend using coles online to anyone especially new mums. good specials online too.

  • The delivery is great!

    Groceries delivered is amazing none the less of any human mistake that is made, if something is going to help me not take my 2 children to the shop by myself in order to do groceries I’m winning! 🙂 the online ordering experience I find is a little bit more complicTed as I couldn’t find everything straight away that I wanted due to a mis selling or not knowing the correct name but would always find it in the end. The delivery fellow was great, helpful and lovely! The products that arrivedwere of good quality however I was missing a couple of things but they rectified that issue immediately once called. 🙂

    my friend was ordering online from coles for long time and she suggested me and I tried for first time, the products we ordered were exactly delivered and it was delivered with care and delivered in correct time as well. excellent customer service too, the fresh foods were clearly separated from others and were delivered fresh as well. I would recommend it for others as well and I am totally happy with them, I order things and make it deliver often.

  • Great service

    Coles online shopping was great and very convinent for me as I am always busy and find it hard to do all of the shopping. The groceries came straight to your door and the man was very cheerful and helpful to me. My groceries were delivered the next day it was great! I never thorght shopping could be that easy. The product serch was easy because you could see everything that is usally in store and if you cannot Find something you can just serch for it. I would recomend this service to others as it saves time and is very convenient.

  • So very convenient

    I never used to be a fan of online food shopping but with two crazy little ones who run and chatter constantly grocery shopping can be very difficult. With Coles online shopping I can get the shopping done whilst they are asleep or playing happily. I can get a bit done here and there when I get a chance or when I remember something and then it comes straight to my kitchen.

  • Coles online shopping, great theory

    Coles online shopping is a great theory, so I thought I would use It when both my husband and myself were sick, my hubby was in hospital and I don’t drive so I thought it was the answer to all my problems, wrong, I found the site easy to navigate, easy to place order and arrange a convenient delivery time, this is where my satisfaction ceased, the rest was like a lucky dip, I got Mustard instead of mayonnaise, my bananas were bruised and inedible, not even banana cake usable, I was missing several items that were supposed to be there, I did not even get my milk, I did call but their was nothing that could be done in a reasonable time frame, so I had to get out my walking frame, call my son and get him to take me to the supermarket to get the things I needed, which is what I should have done first and saved the delivery fee and the increased cost of the products. will be a long time before I ever use this service again.

  • Awesone service, makes your life alot easier and convenient.

    I have been shopping online with Coles for a few months now and it is great. It is so much easier to sit down and be able to concentrate on what I need to get, it is so easy to see all the specials available and find the best bargains. You also avoid the embarrassment of getting to the checkout and you have overspent. No waiting in lines and lugging your shopping home. My delivery man is so friendly and has even offered to pack my shopping away (to which I declined) but it was a nice gesture. I can also find products that I either miss in the store or can’t find. There is a few down falls such as you can’t pick your own fruit and veggies so sometimes the grapes for example aren’t fresh bit they do refund the cost to your account if you ring them for your next shop. The time of the deliveries is a little difficult for me as I get my shopping on Wednesdays which is the day I am child free, I can either choose a later time and miss out on half my free day or I can choose the 7-9 option and hope that they are there before 8:30am (my daughter’s school starts at 8:45am. I choose the 7-9 option and majority of weeks it is here well before 8:30 but there has been a time it didn’t get her til 9 so my daughter ended up being late for school. It would be better if they had smaller and more time frames. But other then that it’s great, you get free delivery on Wednesdays and they usually give you a bag with samples of awesome products to try, this week I got a bottle of ketchup, a protein bar, chewing gum and coffee. I would reccomend it to everyone, great service and makes life a lot easier and smoother, the pros defiantly out way the cons.

  • Time saving and reliable

    i find this service to be really convenient especially as we get closer to Christmas and I’m stocking up on some bulk purchases to save me traipsing around the shops in December. I love the delivery service as my kitchen is upstairs so having the groceries delivered to the bench is fantastic. I can’t always find the full in store range online but
    I am happy to drop by the supermarket occasionally for a small basket of shopping in between the online deliveries.

  • Friendly delivery & easy website!

    I normally use the opposition for my online groceries but decided to give Coles a go & boy was I pleased with my decision! The website is really well laid out & easy to use. Love the “shopping list” feature. My groceries arrived well within the time frame & the delivery man took them all the way to the kitchen. Talk about service! My only negative due to their popularity the delivery slots fill up REALLY quickly :-). Great job Coles!

  • Convenient & Hassle free

    I regularly shop online with Coles and am mostly happy with the freshness and quality of produce and fruits. The delivery team are efficient and friendly but don’t stay and chat, the time frames offered for delivery are in block sets and are mostly convenient. There is an extensive range of products online and it takes a while to go through the listings to find the item, brand, and range you are after, but you can store it for future purchases. There have been occassions where items were replaced with similar brands or items were missing, but mostly everything is there. It is very convenient not having to shop with young children.

  • Coles online is an easy and convenient way to shop

    I have always shopped at Coles anyway, but when my second baby was born I found it difficult to buy groceries at the supermarket. I found Coles online the easiest and most convenient way to shop. I did find some of my regular items difficult to find on the website but overall I would recommend the service. I found the delivery staff very friendly and helpful also.

  • Convenient

    I love online shopping. It saves me time, stress and money. I work 4 days per week and don’t want to spend my day off without children grocery shopping, nor do I want to spend my weekend doing it. The convenience of online shopping is worth so much. I spend less as I only buy what’s on my list. The few times something hasn’t been right Coles customer service have sorted when I give them a phone call.

  • easy to use online and happy service

    ive now used coles online at least 5 times, each time the service has varried but i am always still left happy with the service. sometimes they are late, ive had them go to the wrong house and ive had one person who was quite rude but i honestly still dont like complaining about it because the conveinence of the service is awesome. i love that you can keep tally of how much you are spending and edit the shopping list up until 12 hours before delivery which makes it good for someone like me who forgets things until the last minute. the food is always fresh and they have never forgotten an item. the website is so easy to use. the only thing id like to improve is maybe the coles app could start letting you do the shop on there

Article Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know

Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know

Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!

But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier). 

You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!

Pack Smart, Not Big

Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?

Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and

  • A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
  • A dry bag for clothes
  • A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
  • A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
  • A pop-up tent for changing
  • Waterproof phone case
  • Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
  • A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!

“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member

Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts

It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:

  • Swimming between the flags at the beach
  • Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
  • Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel. 

Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.

That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!

Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier

  • The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
  • Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
  • SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
  • Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
  • Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.

Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.

Prep & Time It Perfectly

There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.

“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member

Pack Smart Snacks

Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:

  • Chopped fruit
  • Crackers
  • Boiled eggs
  • Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight

“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member

A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!

You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!

New Banana Boat Sport SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml and Banana Boat Kids SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml (RRP $28.00) are available now at leading pharmacies, supermarkets and online retailers nationwide. 

Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
