They’re is short for “they are”what’s the beef with you😎
Think you got it wrong my friend. When did l mention they're? There is used in the context of :- over there ( as an example ). Their means an item belongs to someone:- that is their home ( as an example )

I am fully aware of what they're is an abbreviation for, having started school in 1957 they did teach us those things & English was a strong subject for me, thankyou.
 
Is this aisle change at Woolworths misguided? One shopper sparks debate

Stocking up on pantry staples like sugar is part of the weekly grocery routine for many.

But what if the next time you went shopping at Woolworths, you discovered that the sugar had been moved to the cordial section, of all places?


This is exactly what happened to one Queensland shopper, Kylie de Waard, who spoke out on social media about the 'weird' change at her local store.

Sharing her experience with thousands of followers, the shopper posted a video stating that she had encountered a Woolworths store in which the sugar was not located in the baking aisle—a sight that she'd never encountered before in all her shopping days.

According to Kylie, it was her first time seeing the everyday item not close to cake mixes and flour and said that it was ‘wrong’ of Woolies to move the item.

'I just went into a Woolworths where the sugar was not in the baking aisle,' she said.

'And I’ve never been into a supermarket in my entire existence where the sugar is not in the baking aisle.'


'So I need to know, is this a new thing they’re doing? Because it’s wrong.'

This ignited a debate online. According to some, sugar should most definitely belong in the baking aisle.

'All the Woolies near me, it’s in [the] baking aisle, and I’ve got five Woolies within 10 minutes,’ one commented.

While another argued: 'Every supermarket within 30 minutes of my house the sugar is in the baking aisle. That’s the obvious place.'

'I’ve lived in Adelaide, Melbourne, Shepparton, and Horsham. I’ve literally NEVER seen sugar in the coffee aisle, it’s always with baking?' A third said.

'I’ve always found sugar in the baking section. Never ever seen it with coffee,' a fourth confirmed.


But others asserted that they had usually found it in the coffee aisle.

'I just used my Woolies app for my local store. Sugar is in aisle four also coffee, baking stuff in aisle seven,' one said.

'South East Queensland here. It’s been in the coffee aisle for years,' a second added.

While a third said: 'All the Woolies I’ve ever been to, the sugar is in the coffee aisle.'


To prove her case, the shopper returned to another Woolies store and filmed herself pointing out the sugar in the baking aisle.

'To people who thought I was crazy yesterday, this is my local Woolworths,' she said on another video.

'Look! Sugar, sugar! Cake mix! Oh, look at that, baking aisle - flour, sugar.'

'It’s been a very divisive subject. So weird.'

However, it seems that the strange sighting had nothing to do with the store's policy on storage of goods, as the shop where she'd previously seen the misplaced sugar was reportedly undergoing renovations.

I like to use Dextrose rather than Sugar for cooking. it used to be next to the Home Brew Products at Woolies. Now they don't stock it at all. I have to go to Big W to purchase. (Coles gave up stoking about 5 years ago. )

I do agree that if that's all you have that to worry about than you have a fantastic life, so don't complain. Saying that, my Woolworths has got a list in alphabetical order that shows you which aisle to find each item. There is one placed in the front of each aisle and one at the back of the aisle. I thing that is a great idea, I use it all the time
