  • Great value

    IGA usually perceived as a more expensive option when it comes to comparing supermarkets by almost everyone I talked to. However I think this is no longer the case. On my last trip with a $60 I was able to buy all my grocery essentials and some of these were actually cheaper than the competitors on regular shelf price. On of the items which was Black&Gold product it was cheaper $2 than other 2 big supermarkets. The Weekly Specials especially the ones where the savings more than 50% increased the value of my shopping so much. The overall value I got from this visit was far better than the others. Considering checkout process in IGA is always quicker overall it was a great service trip with excellent value. I would suggest people do compare prices of Black&Gold products with competitors where you will find some really favorable prices in IGA on those lines.

  • Little treat!!

    Finally I got my hands on things which I always wanted to try but my budget never allowed me to do so.

    After coming back from vacations, this is the best thing happened, it was more like a Welcome Back treat.

    Can’t wait to try different sauces I got and keep it in my grocery list forever.

  • Great value!

    I was so surprised and pleased with the variety and value for money on my shop at IGA. Usually, I just run in for one or two things, but having the opportunity to do a bigger shop allowed me to explore the store a little more than I usually do. I've held the belief that IGA is often more expensive than other grocery stores, however I was proven wrong. There were some great specials and very competitive prices. I'll definitely be doing larger shops at my local IGA after this experience.

  • An amazing chain!

    We honestly love an IGA food shop, they have so much to offer and such amazing prices! This time around I decided to stock up on our pantry essentials, like for example Mingle Seasonings and recipe bases! I was so excited to see this brand within IGA Cooroy! They have such great specials to offer, I bought a pack of 6 BBQ sausages within my haul for only $4.99, what a great steal! If any one is ever near an IGA, please go in and check it out, you will not be disappointed! TRUST ME! 10/10 always! ⭐️

    Also if you haven’t, make sure you download the IGA for weekly deals and with IGA cash back you can earn money just from buying your weekly shop! Winner winner! 🏆

    I love shopping at my local IGA which is 5 minutes from home.

    As well as having their black and gold affordable label products, they also have a loyalty cashback program, where you can earn money on selected items and use towards next shop! Cant get any better than that.

    A mid week top up shop with great specials meaning more for less, especially on gluten free products. We found new products we hadn’t purchased before and the pricing was really reasonable. Great local time saver. Friendly helpful staff with a variety of ready made, homemade meal options!

    The value at IGA is great on some items. I found it was roughly the same price as other supermarket home brands though. The fresh produce was priced well although had a small selection.

  • IGA Value unmatched

    IGA is where we choose to shop as a household. Their value for money and quality is unmatched when it comes to a steak among other things. Our local IGA also offers price match so it really is a no brainer. The staff are always incredible. The isles are always stocked and have everything I need, which hasn’t been the case with other grocery stores of late and as a working mum I don’t have time to visit 3 different grocers for my food shop.

  • Genuinely surprised!

    I have only ever gotten a few things from IGA randomly. So spending $60 and doing a top up shop I was actually pretty surprised withe value and range on offer.

    The service was also so friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed being served by an actual person rather having to do it by myself and they even gave me a box rather than paper bags that often break before you leave the shops. Will be back!

  • Great Local Value

    I truly value having such a great place to shop with my local IGA Kincumber being just 7 minutes from home! Parking is right outside, and I’m always greeted with a friendly smile.

    There are always plenty of great specials, too. I picked up Black & Gold pasta varieties for just $1.05 and Dolmio pasta sauce for $3.15, plus saved another $2 with IGA Rewards cashback offer.

    Although my local IGA is only small, it has all the everyday essentials I need. The fresh produce is actually better than what I find at the major supermarkets, too! Oh and they also stock a small selection of Bakers Delight bakery items.

    It’s always a pleasant shopping experience at my local IGA.

    LOVE YOU IGA!!!!!

    Great value for money with a wide selection of brands that I can’t find elsewhere.

    Easy to park!

    I will continue to shop at my local IGA as I know by shopping the specials I can stretch my dollar further for my family.

  • Love IGA

    I found that some products were overpriced compared to other main supermarkets.Its the first time buying black and gold products so will be keen to see how they measure up in quality.

    Unfortunate the worker in the deli section wasn’t too friendly which dampened my experience.

  • Love my local IGA

    I love my local IGA and don’t know why I don’t shop there more often. I found a few new products I’ve never tried and will definitely be going back to buy them again. I find the specials at IGA are heavily marked down which is great. Quite a few of the things I purchased were on special and were great value. My local IGA is very close to where I live and I don’t find it as chaotic as some of the bigger supermarkets. I think an overall shop would actually be the same price as the other supermarkets especially if you buy lots of what is on special. I find the staff so friendly as well which makes a huge difference.

  • Little gem of a supermarket, right around the corner!

    I was pleasantly surprised by the extensive range available at my local IGA. While the supermarket was small, it had everything that I needed for a quick mid-week shop. I picked up some Black & Gold baked beans and the kids couldn't tell the difference between them and our usual brand.

    Some of the prices of my brand products were cheaper than the big supermarkets. Since my shop, I've since started checking IGA's catalogue online each week. I didn't realise it at the time but some of the products I purchased also earned me cashback on the IGA app.

    The store was busy and I can see why. Good range of products, decent prices, and all without the hassle of going to the larger supermarkets to get my essentials. The longer opening times, particularly on public holidays, will definitely save me some time and save me some stress.

  • I always feel boujee when I shop at IGA

    Whenever I shop at IGA, I always feel a little bit boujee! The selection of freshly cooked meals, pre made meals and ones you can cook yourself plus they always have such good sized staples. I picked up a huge packet of SF flour and Plain flour (black and gold of course!)

  • Not sure what I was expecting..

    Entering the store I honestly didn’t have high expectations that IGA would provide good value for money for my grocery shop. We are a family of 4 and budgeting is important to us in this economy. Whilst some of the prices were on par with other grocery stores, some higher (which is what I most expected). Some left me pleasantly surprised and some of the IGA prices even blew me away, being significantly cheaper than the competitors. The members discounts are great and the IGA app even has products that you can earn a cash back on, simply for doing your groceries each week. The store was a standalone store, which I absolutely loved! I didn’t have to make my way through a busy shopping centre with my pram to do my groceries. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The manager stopping to chat to my little one and I as we walked around the store. I felt valued as a customer. As I’ve gotten older, I think of value differently. Whilst not all the prices were cheaper, I felt I was more than just a number through that store. The store had meal ideas I had not even considered and items in bulk that I hadn’t seen outside of a Costco. Very impressed and will be going back more to shop for my family!

  • Real Good Value at IGA - Its True!

    When I was told you can get real good value at IGA, I dismissed it as I feel local independent grocery marts are way more expensive than the mainstream supermarkets but I was so wrong. When I shopped at my local IGA store, I realised that it provides great value for everyday shopping. I was astonished by how neatly everything was displayed, with correct labels and prices. Fruits and vegetables looked very fresh and appealing and overall their prices, especially their home brand Black and Gold and specials offered really good value. I really liked the black and gold brand pasta, will certainly buy again. I loved the convenience of driving up to the store, parking close by (in my case, right outside the store) and completing the shop quickly and efficiently. Loved the convenience, the pricing and the service

  • Enjoyed my shopping

    I thoroughly enjoyed my shopping experience at IGA.

    The store layout isnt confusing or overwhelming so being able to find things was super easy. The range of brands was awesome, I loved browsing through all the brands that the other supermarket chains dont stock. I even grabbed myself some bacon salt rub which I have been trying to find for a long time!

    The customer service was great, I scanned all my items and realised you cant use a giftcard at that cashier, the worker helped me redo it all on one that can without any hesitation.

    The amount of products i got for $60 blew my mind.

    I really think after thjs shopping experience i will be back to my local IGA and will definitely be checking out others if we're on holiday.

  • Great range of groceries and fresh produce, perfect for the family top up shop!

    I found the range to be honestly better than I expected, the Guyra IGA store had a great range of fresh fruit and veggies as well as fresh bakery bread to choose from. I was surprised to see such a stocked deli with a range of deli meats as well as hot 'grab n go' food options which is perfect if you're on the go.

    The quality of all the items was great, from dairy to fresh produce, everything was of a high quality. To be 100% honest, I did feel like budget wise some things are a little more costly than other grocery stores, but for that reason, I especially enjoy their 'Black & Gold' range, which is still quality but offers a budget friendly alternative to a wide range of groceries. To this end, the store also had some good specials running on a variety of items when I was there which is great!

    I needed help to find the price of some garlic and one of the ladies working at the store was super friendly and prompt in assisting me, I do enjoy the good customer service that the IGA offers which definitely makes the whole shopping experience nicer.

    Overall, I think the range of products was fantastic, the store was well stocked for all your needs and the staff were friendly and helpful but I think its a little on the pricier side for some things, that personally, it was maybe not the best in terms of value but in saying that, the 'Black & Gold' range is quite affordable and an option for a good range of groceries and for $60 you can still get quite a bit!

    I think it was a fun experience and no doubt i'll be popping back in again to the Guyra IGA to grab some some more things!

  • I have been a purkle.member for several years now since first reading about it on this MoM’s website. The surveys are fun and i have scored quite a few gifts cards on Purkle after reaching the required.number of points. Its easy to sign up tok so why not give it a go?

  • If you haven’t already signed up for Purkle, what are you waiting for?? Do it!! It’s so easy to do, and it is really rewarding. I regularly get surveys, almost daily, and it takes no time at all to gain enough to cash out a gift card. It’s been great for splurging.

  • I’ve earnt quite a lot through Purkle.They pay in gift cards and it acts as a great side income especially when it comes to buying something that is a non essential.I love Purkle 😉

  • I have been a Purkle member for 10 years now. At the moment I have over $100 I am able to convert. Surveys can take any where from 3 minutes to 30 minutes and vary in amount you earn. It’s a great way to earn some money when you have free time. I am pretty slack at opening the emails so if I was more attentive I could have earnt a lot more.

  • Love purkle! Currently earning my way up to a big gift card for my kids birthday 🎂

    Reply

  • I have been a Purkle member for approximately 10 years. I have redeemed hundreds of dollars over that time. Once you join, you receive survey invitations via email. I probably receive one invite per week. Some surveys are 5 minutes, others 30 minutes, some hours which enable you to log in and log out to complete. Incentives vary. It does take a while to add up but if you leave the incentives untouched, they eventually add up over time. It’s my little Purple bank account I have in the background of everything else I do.

    Reply

  • I have been with Purkle for a bit but I actually haven’t seen their email a for a while. I probably should check my account online and check if my emails are going to spam as the emails are what prompts me to go online and complete the available surveys.

    Reply

  • I have been with purkle for a long time on average cash in about 300 a year, it’s very easy to convert money to useable vouchers. I find it easier to just fill in whilst watching tv or something. Sometimes there are gaps with surveys but tend to save them till end of year anyway

  • I actually signed up to Purkle a few years ago and didn’t really make much money then! Its a good article though, and thanks for the reminder to log back in and do some surveys! Both my kids are at school now, so I do have some more spare time to fill!

  • I have joined purkle years ago and did make a fair bit of money back then when on mat leave doing a fair few surveys. But it has been years since I have used it so this article was a good reminder to get back on it and earn some additional money!

  • 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.
