Protein powder and sports nutrition products can vary significantly in price between Coles and Woolworths — and both stores regularly run half-price specials on popular brands.
Grocerize tracks prices across brands stocked at both stores:
- Carman's — protein bars and snacks
- Musashi — protein powders and bars
- Balance — WPC and WPI powders
- Optimum Nutrition — when stocked
- Nature's Way — protein and sports nutrition
- Store brands — often the best value per serve
Tips for saving on protein:
- Buy on half-price specials — both stores discount protein products regularly
- Compare price per serve — a larger tub isn't always cheaper per gram of protein
- Set a price alert — get notified when your preferred brand hits your target price
- Check both stores — the same product can be $5–$15 cheaper at one store in any given week
