Viral feud between comedians over Coles vs. Woolworths will leave you in stitches
- Replies 12
As any Aussie would know, two supermarket giants dominate the market: Coles and Woolworths (don’t worry, ALDI fans! We didn’t forget you either – here’s your shout-out).
There’s no denying that both have their charm, but it’s also evident that people tend to develop a favourite between the two. When factoring in the price points, proximity, and the overall atmosphere, which supermarket reigns supreme?
Well, two popular comedians from South Australia have taken the age-old question one step further with a recent TikTok video… The result? An entertaining couple of minutes that has left over 2.4 million users in stitches.
South Australian brothers Lachlan and Jaxon Fairbairn rose to fame thanks to their podcast Fair Enough, featuring comedy skits about various topics. But it’s their recent clip about Woolworths and Coles that has floored many.

In the video, the two siblings end up taking jabs at each other throughout the entirety of the feud – because what fun would it be otherwise?
Lachlan is a loyal Woolies foot soldier, jokingly referring to the store as the ‘Great Green Palace of Woolworths’ and listing the colour of its logo, advertising jingle, and iconic mud cakes as the reasons why he prefers the supermarket.
Jaxon, on the other hand, prefers Coles and repeatedly demands his brother to ‘take that back’ when he makes scathing comments about his favourite supermarket.
The skit has taken TikTok by storm, with thousands weighing in on the debate with even funnier comments.
‘Woolies is the best. When I started shopping there, I became a better version of myself.’ one dramatically claimed.
‘Coles has the “cow buttons” that go moo!’ another chimed.
‘Honestly, Woolies is just more pleasing to the eyes. Sorry, Coles.’ said a third, while a fourth agreed: ‘I don’t trust ANYONE who shops at Coles.’
‘Coles because their stores are way easier to steal from.’ another joked… We think…
‘Coles’ cookies are superior!’ a sixth said.
A puzzled foreigner jumped in on the discussion, writing: ‘I have no idea where either of these places are but I’m on Woolies side.’

Lachlan: 'Oh, what? Jax, that’s f***ed.'
Jaxon: 'What’s wrong with Coles?'
Lachlan: 'What’s wrong with Coles? It’s like a cattle shed in there – it’s like a barnyard. '
Jaxon: 'It is not…'
Lachlan: 'Last time I was in there, someone barked at me.'
Jaxon: 'That’s just Gumption. He’ll bark at you, you just got to ignore him.'
Lachlan: 'What’s his name?'
Jaxon: 'Coles has decent prices and even decent-er bargains.'
Lachlan: 'Those are the same thing.'
Jaxon: 'Coles has banging tiramisu.'
Lachlan: 'Woolies has a banging mud cake.'

Jaxon: 'That’s a f***ing lie and you know it.'
Lachlan: 'Woolies is cleaner.'
Jaxon: 'Coles is red, which makes them faster.'
Lachlan: 'Woolies is green, green’s better than red. Means go.'
Jaxon: 'Coles has fewer letters.'
Lachlan: 'Woolies has more letters.'
Jaxon: 'F***, you got me there.'
Lachlan: 'We’ve got Everyday Rewards.'
Jaxon: 'FlyBuys s***s on Everyday Rewards and you are f***ing well aware of it.'

Lachlan: 'Why is it all about saving money with you?'
Jaxon: 'Coles has that nut scoop thing where you can scoop your own nuts.'
Lachlan: 'That’s animalistic.'
Jaxon: 'It’s convenient.'
Lachlan: 'It’s like a warehouse in there.'
Jaxon: 'It’s open.
Lachlan: 'Their cookies could never be Woolies cookies. Never.'
Jaxon: 'Take that back. Coles cookies slap, motherf***er.'
Lachlan: 'Woolies is like shopping at the airport and Coles is like shopping at Bunnings for milk.'
Jaxon: 'Oh since when did you become too good for a good discount?'
Lachlan: 'I love the discount from the Great Green Palace of Woolworths.'
Jaxon: 'You have those w***ery “That’s why we pick Woolies” ads, whereas we have the decent down-to-the-point “Down down, the prices are down” ads.'
Lachlan: 'You’d need a song to appeal to the lowest common denominator.'
Jaxon: 'You have a song too.'
Lachlan: 'And it has all the class that “Prices are down” doesn’t.'
Jaxon: 'You take that back.'
