Another thing to be aware of is the quality of what is being offered for similar items at different price points.
A few days ago, I saw sealed packs of lamb cutlets in our local Woolies priced at $42/kg and one had a strip of fat around 10mm wide up the side of the bone and the rest were not much better.
I assumed that that they were the premium extra trimmed cutlets at that price but Woolies had ratcheted up their prices to $42/kg for the standard cutlets and to $50/kg for the premium product.
Yesterday, I bought 2 packs of the premium Woolies cutlets marked down by almost 50% and the photo above shows the packs beside a pack of the standard cutlets which are not as bad as the ones I saw the other day but still have a lot of excessive fat for a mere $42/kg.
I then went to Coles and took this photo of their standard and premium cutlets.
It almost appears that the cutlets have been labelled incorrectly as the standard cutlets are much better than the premium cutlets.
