  • IgA Black and gold

    I was little surprised that I could only find few IGA black and white products lunch box items . I bought black and white tasty cheese, for a healthy lunch box iga black and gold was hard to find,as you have to buy ingredients black and white to make lunch box meal. I bought some fruits and vegetable to make it more colourful

  • Week 3 of Extra Specials x IGA

    A spectacular experience enjoying local, high-quality products at my nearest Ritchies IGA supermarket. Although this is my third week of shopping there, it certainly won't be my last. They've gained a new customer in me after I compared how much I could save at IGA.

    Some of this week's best promotions included (but were not limited to) snacks and cereals for the kids, cleaning products for the family, and soft drinks. Don't miss out on the great Christmas specials either.

  • Heaps of Amazing Deals at Ritchies IGA New Lambton

    This is my second week shopping at Ritchies IGA New Lambton, and I was certainly fascinated by the number of incredible discounts available to savvy shoppers. The supermarket is well stocked with a wide range of products, making it convenient for last-minute shopping but also for enjoying a family outing. In addition to the spectacular Extra Specials on cleaning and pantry products, the Black Friday deals were such a bargain that every dollar was well spent. Every day I become more convinced that IGA should be the number one choice for weekly grocery shopping for everyone in this fabulous community.

  • Very nice supermarket

    We both noodle and rice this shopping and very helpful staff help me to carry to my car. The fruit is quite cheap but high quality. We tried fresh pork belly this time and it is very fresh. A lot of asian stuffs and popular products. Will come back next time to buy indoor plants

  • Extra specials Value at IGA

    Week 3 shop and once again impressed at some of the Extra specials found in store. Big savings on things like olive oil, and a good saving on items you use all the time like tinned tomatoes, soft drinks, recipe bases & more. Probably not as many extra specials to shop this week for me personally - a few of the extra specials were on things we don’t eat as a family (eg tuna tins) but for anyone who does there’s great prices to be found. We picked up a few extra little treats this week for an upcoming weekend away which I’ve never spotted anywhere else! A wide variety of items & again impressed by the value and friendly service at Ritchies IGA in Maclean.

  • Awesome specials!

    Week 3 shop at Supa Valu Girrawheen complete! This was probably the best week yet. I was extremely impressed with the specials this week. My favourites were; $0.49 zucchini, Weet-bix $2.19 for 575g box, bag of Doritos for $2.19, chicken breast $7.99 per kg, and the paper towel 2 pack $1.89. Safe to say I stocked up on the Weetbix- what a bargain! Store was tidy and well organised. Plenty of available parking. No wait time at the checkout. Very happy with what I got for $60. I feel very fortunate to have been part of this mission and given this opportunity. My local IGA is quite expensive, but the SUPA VALU prices and specials are extremely competitive! Thanks for helping me discover a great place to shop! Great value for money!

  • Last Week at Supa Valu Romeos Doonside

    It’s finally my last week at Supa Valu Romeos Doonside. I bought a few Extra Specials this week. Starting with Quilton 3ply toilet tissue 36 rolls value pack. What a steal for only $18!

    Then there were some better than half price deals — Magnum mini ice cream 6 pack for $5.50. I saved $6.50 on this. Doritos for $2.20 each, saving $2.80 each. How good is that?! I also bought rump steak. A good deal as well. To finish off, I stocked up on essentials like lemon juice, noodles, canned tuna and sardines and corn kernels.

    Doing my grocery shopping at IGA these past 3 weeks really made me realise that I’ve been missing on some great savings. Now I know to also check on the IGA catalogue weekly. Thank you for this opportunity.

  • Week 3 of IGA 60$ shopping - blessing and cheap prices

    Week 3 of shopping gave us some more new stuff. I was sincerely impressed that I got it all for less than 60$. I got new ice cream to try and our favourite Doritos and Cheddar Shapes that we actually tried first after buying in IGA for half price! Even though not all items on specials, I bought heaps for such a small price!

  • Week 2 of great prices

    I am so grateful to have a chance to be a reviewer for this project. It is so awesome to have an extra 60$ for shopping for 3 weeks. Myself and my husband are always looking forward to another Wednesday to get this gift card and get some stuff for our family.

    Week 2 shopping in IGA Elermore Vale is another great experience. We bought some useful items for home and food wise. I don’t know why, but I didn’t see anywhere the tag “extra special” discount, only “special”, unless i have a pregnancy brain and don’t see stuff. Great value for money, but still can’t say that it would be cheaper than in other supermarkets. Great range of products by types. The cashier apparently was one of fairly new staff members as he couldn’t place the gift card properly in the system. Overall, amazing experience! Thanks!

  • Yeah all good

    My IGA at Mt Waverley had a few Extra Specials, but not as many as I'd noticed on previous occasions. Some good buys were to be had, so that's a bonus!

  • Week 3

    Apologies this is submitted late. I got lost of the days with a new born. Last shop at singleton IGA. Very limited extra special buys but lots of specials. If you shop correctly you can really get a lot for your money. Staff were friendly as always but did not know how to put in the voucher so I was stuck at the register holding everyone up.

  • Another great week

    For week 3 of the IGA extra specials at Rowville Ritchies IGA I feel like there were a few repeats, nevertheless another great week. The two stand out items were definitely the omo laundry detergent and the Cobram olive oil. The omo was $16 with a savings of $20! And the Cobram olive oil was $12 with a savings of $13! I saved a total of $58.50 on my total bill with all of the other items. The only thing that was a big weird was these two items didn’t actually display the extra specials price stickers on the shelves. I had seen them in the extra specials catalogue so I actually had to confirm with staff that they were at the extra special price, which they were. Apart from that bungle I’m happy to say that I will definitely be shopping at IGA for all the specials from now on! Great value for some of their specials and such friendly staff.

  • Great specials

    I’ve really enjoyed my shops at IGA. Some fantastic buys this week with items better than half price - laundry detergent, olive oil and corn chips.

    Also great fresh produce - onions, carrots and raspberries.

    Everything is easy to find and pleasant staff.

    I will be going back for sure!

  • Week three extra specials review

    Hi all, headed into my local IGA store at Sutherland. Very impressed with the store as far as the quantity of extra specials available and well stocked and clean. However, the staff stock trolleys were in the middle of a few aisles making it difficult to move past with a trolley. The cashier sales assistant was not very friendly today which was unusual in comparison to the previous two shopping reviews.

  • Great mix of specials at IGA Pentridge

    I can't talk highly enough of my experience shopping at IGA Pentridge, every week has felt like a self care experience with fantastic treats, and those little extras that you can't find in Coles.

    This week I picked up quite a few of the extra special treats, with mini magnum's at $5.50 a box, and Doritos at $2.20. my kids were very happy!

    And for the mountains of laundry I do every day, the Omo tabs were fantastic value at $16 a 28 bag. I don't usually use the laundry capsules, but after picking some up in the extra specials last week, I have loved how easy and convenient they are.

    I also want to acknowledge the amazing team at IGA Pentridge. My 2 year old twins joined my shopping trip on Saturday, and the team were so helpful throughout the store, and even let the twins help "pack the shopping bags" a highlight of their day.

  • A bit disappointed this time

    I went along to my nominated store, Ritchies IGA in Mt Waverley, and scanned the shelves but I was disappointed this week. One product I had my eye on - FPFC High Protein Sweet Chilli Breast Tenders - was over $12, which was only a 90 cent saving - I don't think this qualifies as a Super Special but that's what it apparently was.

  • What a way to end my shopping trips

    This week's saw some extra specials extra value sales and Supa Valu Doonside. The magnums were more than 50% off they were down $6.50 and only cost $5.50 per box. The Doritos are out absolute favourite for nacho nights and these were also down more than half price. Down $2.80 and cost me $2.20 per bag.

    Again we tried some black and gold the pasta is actually really yum and what a cheap meal only $0.95 a bag.

    It was a shame the calippos were out of stock that's another fav of ours

  • Extra Specials and weekly IGA Specials

    These are the specials I bought for $60.00 from Ritchie’s IGA Taree. I was surprised that Cobran’s olive oil $12.00 and the omo ultra S16.00 was an extra special marked with yellow tags were so cheap. The mangoes were 3 for $6.00 and the Kent pumpkin only $2.00 kg

  • Again hard to find the specials

    I was again about to find everything I needed for my weekly shop. It has a very good range of items-especially Christmas items. The staff were excellent - friendly and super helpful. It was again confusing to determine the extra specials as they seemed to have Christmas special tags instead of extra special tags. I spent $62.69 and saved $17.11 which I am super happy with!

  • Yep I’ve been a member of purkle for years but don’t get much these days on it to be honest compared to what I used to het

  • Thank you for sharing this. I hadn’t hear of Purkle! Being a single mum and only working part time means every extra dollar is handy. I enjoy doing surveys and reviews in my downtime anyway, so I might as well earn while doing it! I’ve just joined, so hopefully it will be a good experience.

  • Tried it before and it’s definitely one of the better companies to do surveys with. They make it so easy, the website is easy to navigate and the surveys are generally not too long. It’s easy to do whilst on the couch or filling in time! Definitely worth checking out to earn some extra cash.

    Reply

  • Purkle is fun! Not a lot to earn from but if you like filling up surveys or voicing ypir opinions, it is definitely worth a try. Sometimes there are survey on music which are the most fun ones and also, these are the ones that reward the most. Not bad to earn a gift card or 2 in a year!

    Reply

  • I love Purkle. While the surveys don’t award massive sums, the surveys themselves are never long. Other platforms want a minimum of 10 minutes which can be hard to commit to during day time chaos. It doesn’t take long to accumulate a decent sum, and I use gift cards as a way to treat myself. They can be redeemed for grocery gift cards. I’ve cashed out over $200 in a year and a half. Give it a go!

    Reply

  • I’ve been with Purkle for a few years now. One of my favourite survey and money earning platforms. Easy to build up a balance and redeem your earnings. Love sitting down and completing my purkle surveys, to see balance grow. I use this to treat myself or put towards presents for Christmas

    Reply

  • I’m not having any luck with purkle. I tried to sign up for it and it just wasn’t working so I emailed them and didn’t hear back, I just tried again now and managed to create an account but then the activation email contained no link to click and actually activate my account. From the comments here it looks like I’m not missing anything anyway

    Reply

  • I’ve earnt a bit through Purkle and other survey sites. They are great passive income. I don’t mind that Purkle pays in gift cards as it provides a great opportunity for me to buy something for myself as opposed to putting cash away for expenses. But cash is always good!

    Reply

  • Surveys have been great to keep me awake while feeding my newborn at night but I agree with some of the comments that the time commitment is too high for the benefit. I do not believe i will continue using it once baby starts to sleep through and get through feeds quicker.

    Reply

  • I tried Purkle for approx 1 year and quite frankly it’s really not worth your time
    Very few surveys and very low amounts paid
    Worst thing is it only pays in gift cards so no cash
    I gave up and just stuck with my original survey site that I’ve been using for years
    It makes me $120 average in PayPal a week without too much effort and supplies the family with an annual holiday without touching the household budget

    Reply

  • It’s a shame I’m already a member and can’t enter the competition. Surveys in general – including Purkle – can be a good way to earn some money, but just remember you won’t earn much from any one survey. It does add up over time though, and isn’t particularly difficult to do.

    Reply

  • This is a nice way to earn a bit extra money but you won’t earn a lot. Some surveys time out too which is annoying or hey just stop working half way through. If you have spare time and want to do it then why not. I sometimes do these on the train on my way to work and it slowly builds up to allow you to get a reward. It all helps.

    Reply

  • I joined Purkle ages ago but to be honest I have never used it and totally forgot that I joined let alone that I could be earning money and points while being at home. Any opportunity to make some money and try to help financially, off I go to rejoin I think!

    Reply

  • I have joined up and hope to gain some bonuses. I realise it won’t be a lot but it’s good to know from genuine people on here that have been part of purkle that it is a real site. So many scams out there so good to know this isn’t one of them.

    Reply

  • Purkle is a great surveys site. I’ve redeemed vouchers from there. You’re not going to make a fortune from it but you do definitely earn for your time. I haven’t done any for a while as I just haven’t had rhe time but I’ll definitely get back into it. The vouchers always come in handy.

    Reply

  • The inner sceptic in me will prevent me signing up! I’m not against a survey, however I would rather do one here and there when I can with the incentive of winning something big! Even a $100 voucher. At the rate I win, it works out better than signing up for this.
