Australia’s two major supermarkets have been named and shamed for “cashing in during a cost-of-living crisis” by consumer advocates Choice. Coles and Woolworths were among the recipients of Choice’s Shonky awards, an annual list that recognises the worst products and services of the year.
“While Coles and Woolies have been promoting how they’re supposedly helping with the cost of living, in the background they’ve been banking huge profits,” the Choice chief executive, Alan Kirkland, said.
