Here in WA we have SPUD SHED an ever increasing presence in the supermarket chain. Vegetables and Meat along with a good range of Sea Food at prices often lower than the big 3 is a staple for me.Followed by Aldi then either Coles or Woolies depending on who has what I need cheaper.

Whilst we don't get Norco in my local stores in Western Australia,the removal of any Australian company from stores is deplorable. We have seen the removal of 3ltr Home brand Hi Lo milk from our Coles stores to be replaced by a lot more Full Cream milk. No explanations given is a poor excuse to...
