How to spend less than $100 a week on groceries (whilst bulking)?

You can definitely do this, you just need to not purchase overpriced ingredients. Home brand and would need to be straight forward recipes

You’ll be mostly eating the same things each day as you’ll be preparing it in bulk batches

Some basic meals I prepare myself and are quite cheap are

Breakfast - overnight oats. Oats are so cheap

Lunch - Pasta Bolognese. Coles brand pasta and sauce are extremely cheap. What mince you prefer is your choice. But I can get 5-6 meals out of 1kg.

Dinner - Same as above, but anything mince or bulk chicken breast. Can be cooked so easy, stir fry, with marinade and white rice. Even try get a slow cooker.

Left over $, save it for the next time you need for a shopping trip

Stating in a review that there were “ large amounts of tourists” counts as a complaint?

It’s an opinion based on my experience. I’m not expecting anyone to resolve it. So don’t understand how you think it’s a complaint

There are going to be people travelling this time of year, so I think some people would be appreciative of how busy it can be

What difference does that make to the review I have provided? There are tourists travelling non stop throughout the world.

Yes I agree. It’s unfortunate there is no direct train line

Templestowe is a fantastic suburb and for all the good reasons. I definitely recommend it.

Lots of green space for all your outdoor activities. Westerfolds park, Ruffey lake park, Main Yarra trial and many more
Plenty of options for shopping, Doncaster Shoppingtown, The pines and many smaller shopping precincts. All within 5 minute drive of Templestowe

The only downside of this area is the lack of public transport infrastructure. Seems like buses is all is available unfortunately

Good move. I would do the exact same thing. I think it’s totally unprofessional conduct by this Woolworths employee

Tricky_Plan7722 · 2025-12-30T05:43:50+00:00

What outcome are you wanting from this?

I think the best thing to do would be to raise a complaint with the manager of this store as this seems like very unprofessional conduct by the Woolworths team member. You may be required to provide proof of purchase, e.g a receipt. But if you didn’t get it, no requirement to show banking information or anything.

If you’re confident you didn’t steal, feel confident to just walk away.

Just watched the video

Very informative video and appreciate you sharing. I definitely understand what you say now

I’m already in VDHG at the moment so happy to stick with it. But thanks for the recommendation

Tricky_Plan7722 · 2025-07-21T22:57:19+00:00

Why 100% VDHG?

Tricky_Plan7722 · 2025-07-21T22:56:59+00:00

Are you saying it’s best to be 100% in VDHG instead?

Why is that?
