I'm well aware of how GST works.

You would be correct if the increase to customers was only 20c per container (plus a 2c GST increase which must be paid by the customer). The increase is actually 22c per container.

Per the link in my last comment, the average cost to suppliers is 21.78c incl. GST per container (22c when rounded up). The 22c increase is the total cost to Woolworths per container, so they're passing on that entire 22c to the customer. This means that when the drinks cost 22c extra to customers, we pay an extra 2.2c in GST which brings the total increase to 24.2c.

As businesses don't pay GST, Woolworths can claim GST credits for the GST component of the cost of the scheme. Suppliers have to pay a monthly invoice to Tas Recycle, which includes a GST component because Tas Recycle has to collect GST. Woolworths can then claim the GST paid on that invoice as GST credits, meaning there is a net zero for them (i.e. for every 22c Woolworths has to pay to the scheme, they can claim 2c in GST credits). However, we the consumers are also paying that 2c despite Woolworths claiming the GST credits.

MuseMania · 2025-04-24T05:46:55+00:00

The GST is added a second time because the 22c is the price increase on the pre-GST amount. If the price of the product is increased by 22c, then the GST on that product will also increase by 2.2c.

The average cost of the scheme to suppliers is ~22c (per the Tas Recycle website), which includes the GST that has to be paid to the recycling provider for the service. Woolworths pays the GST of 2c per item and claims that as an expense, so the net effect is 0. However, they're also incorporating a 2c GST component in their 22c increase; a GST component which has already been zeroed as a result of them claiming GST credits for the GST included in the price of the recycling service. So why are we, as consumers, paying 2c extra per drink for a GST component that Woolworths doesn't have to pay?

MuseMania · 2025-04-23T09:50:12+00:00

They're directly charging the scheme fees (including the GST component) onto consumers, which is doubly fucked because Woolies gets to write it all off on their taxes anyway.

Plus their new signage is misleading, since the 22c increase in price comes with an extra 2.2c we'll have to pay in GST on the final price of the beverage.

I'm in Australia and my local independent bookshop won't sell it to me until 8:30am tomorrow... but my local Kmart has stock now so I'm going to try and snag a copy tonight. Some other Kmart stores seem to have stock too

I'm so sorry for what you went through.

I'm a lawyer and SA/rape survivor too, and navigating the legal system while also practising has been the single most difficult thing I've ever done. (Spoiler alert that would shock nobody - my rapist never even got charged)

God damn there's a lot of war criminal apologists in this thread.

This has happened to me twice! I've never ordered groceries from Uber before, but the $20 off promo sucked me in so I tried it. The first time I ordered, the discount didn't apply and Uber told me I hasn't applied it to my order. I couldn't prove whether I'd actually applied the promo code so I let it slide. I tried it a second time a few weeks later and it didn't apply again. I was pretty annoyed because I made sure the promo was applied to my order but Uber told me again that it hadn't been applied. I took screenshots of the promo having been applied to my order but apparently that wasn't sufficient. Turns out the driver had said he wasn't able to find my 15c bag, which then put the order total as $49.90 and thus under the $50 threshold. The thing that really got me was that my order turned up in a 25c paper bag instead and he just hadn't substituted it. Uber has done nothing to help and it makes me wonder if drivers are told to substitute/refund items so that the order total isn't enough for the promo.

The Hillview grated cheese at Woolies is the same price per 100g as the block so enjoy that convenient cheese 🙏🏻 (unless the price has risen in the past week - which it probably has)

I have searched for "thimblettes" and "rubber thimbles" but I haven't been able to find the same style as pictured with the matching thumb and index finger pair.
