As the cost of living crisis continues on into the New Year, supermarket giant Coles has announced a significant price drop on more than 300 items across its stores in a bid to help Australians save on their grocery bills.
This move is set to bring some of the lowest meat prices seen in the last four years, making it a perfect time to fire up the BBQ and enjoy some quality Aussie lamb and beef.
Starting Wednesday, Coles customers will see reduced prices on a wide range of products, from meats and pantry staples to beauty and baby items.
This nationwide initiative is a response to the current economic climate, where shoppers are seeking ways to stretch their dollar without compromising on quality, according to Coles Executive General Manager Fresh Andy Mossop.
Among the price reductions, Coles is offering significant savings on Aussie lamb until January 23.
Lamb Loin Chops will be priced at a four-year low of $16 per kilo, while lamb cutlets will be available at $29 per kilo, a saving of $5 per kilo.
Selected products from the No Added Hormone Australian Beef range will also see savings of up to 20 per cent for 12 weeks.
Victorian beef and lamb farmers Brian and Chris Kyle, who have been supplying Coles for over 25 years, expressed their excitement over the price reduction.
They believe it will help more families enjoy their high-quality products.
'Supplying to Coles for the better part of two decades has been an invaluable part of our story, and the demand for quality meat is as strong as I can remember, with lamb, in particular, surging in popularity over the last few years,' one Kyle said.
The Kyles, who run a multi-generational farming family business, credit their partnership with Coles for their ability to consistently deliver quality meat to Australians.
'Building up the family business and working with Coles has meant we can continue to evolve while providing the best quality meat to feed Aussie families like ours for years to come,' he added.
In addition to meat, Coles is also reducing prices on various household essentials.
These include cheese, coffee, pasta, dishwashing tablets, and baby necessities.
Seasonal fruits and vegetables have also become significantly cheaper compared to last year, with savings of up to 40 per cent on fresh produce such as avocados, rockmelon, watermelon and eggplant.
Breakfast and lunch box staples are not left out of the price slash.
Popular brands like Kellogg’s, Chobani, and Bega will also see reduced prices, making it easier for families to pack nutritious and affordable meals for school and work.
This comes after news that outraged farmers have threatened to revolt against supermarket giants raking in billion-dollar profits.
Farmers across Australia have been feeling malcontent, accusing Australia’s supermarket giants of exploiting them through price gouging.
The situation has become so dire that some farmers are threatening to close up shop and stop supplying supermarkets altogether.
The dramatic call comes as Coles and Woolworths posted over $1 billion in profits last year while farmers struggle with unsustainably low returns.
With morale at rock bottom, many growers say they are prepared to abandon their crops unless concrete steps are taken to close price gaps.

In other news, some eagle-eyed shoppers noticed a significant change at Coles where products were adorned with yellow markdown tickets aisle after aisle—suggesting a store-wide discounting spree.
The footage shared by the shoppers has prompted discussions among shoppers over whether this is a genuine attempt by Coles to offer relief to consumers or a strategic move to mitigate negative perceptions ahead of the parliamentary inquiry into alleged supermarket price gouging.
