Sometimes supporting alternative, community-orientated stores is more expensive but not always! 🫛

Here are just a few of the things you can get cheaper at members’ prices at the Co-op!

The Co-op is a not-for-profit. In other words our mark up is calculated to keep prices as low as possible while ensuring the longevity of our organisation and enabling us to provide support to other community groups

Supporting us keeps money in the community and ensures we can keep providing an alternative to big chain stores

Plus many of our products come without the plastic packaging you’ll find elsewhere! As we don’t sell our produce or our bulk items in plastic, you can also get the perfect amount you need and reduce food waste

What’s your favourite supermarket alternative?

Note: Supermarket prices are the lowest suitable alternative we could find, based on the prices online of the major Australian supermarkets. Prices vary! These are accurate as of June 10 2026

A little introduction (or reminder!) to buying bulk goods at the Co-op 🫘

1) Pick your container 🫙
Bring your own or grab one in-store! We sell jars and paper bags for a small cost, otherwise choose one of our free recycled jars donated by members, sanitised and weighed by our volunteers

2) Weigh your container ⚖️
Use the scales near the sink or nut butter machines, then write the weight on your container

3) Choose your product 🖊️
Write the product code on your bag or container

4) Fill up 🥄
Take as much or as little as you need. Utensils and jugs are available around the shop

Some products have their own tricks - household liquids have pumps and fridge goods are easiest to dispense near the sink. If you're unsure, just ask for help!

Please be mindful of reducing waste! Overflow can be left in a jug and handed to a staff member provided it has only touched the jug or a new paper bag

5) Clean up 🧹
Mess happens sometimes! If something spills, please let a staff member know so we can keep the shop safe. There's a sink, paper towel, dishcloths and dustpans available for clean-ups

6) Head to the counter 🛒
No need to weigh your items again - staff tare your container at the till

That's it! You've passed Bulk Buying 101! Thanks for helping reduce packaging and food waste 🌱

Happy Bulk Buying!
