The Daily 3 for Thu 22 Oct 2026

Morning. I found three top savers for you today. I didn't expect Nescafe Blend 43 Instant Coffee Jar to come in at half the price or less.

Up to $14.95 (48%) less on three buys, lowest vs highest unit price we found online. Highest prices we found: $14.50 + $1.90 + $14.50 = $30.90. Lowest: $7.25 + $1.20 + $7.50 = $15.95. $30.90 − $15.95 = $14.95. $14.95 ÷ $30.90 = 48%.

1. Same item: Nescafe Blend 43 Instant Coffee Jar

   $7.25 (50%) less for 150g. Coles $14.50 − Woolworths $7.25 = $7.25 for 150g. $7.25 ÷ $14.50 = 50%.

   • Coles: Blend 43 Instant Coffee (Nescafe), 150g, $14.50 ($9.67 per 100g). Online price 21 Oct 2026. Highest unit price found.
   • Woolworths: Nescafe Blend 43 Instant Coffee Jar 150g, $7.25 ($4.83 per 100g). On special, was $14.50. Online price 21 Oct 2026. Lowest unit price found.

   Woolworths has this on special, down from $14.50. Specials end, so check the date.

2. Everyday buy: Flour (Different brand or size)

   $0.70 (37%) less for 1kg. Coles $1.90 (1kg worth of a 2kg pack) − Aldi $1.20 (1kg worth of a 2kg pack) = $0.70 for 1kg. $0.70 ÷ $1.90 = 37%.

   • Aldi: Plain Flour 2kg (WHITE MILL), $2.39 ($1.20 per kg). Online price 21 Oct 2026. Lowest unit price found.
   • Coles: Plain Flour (The Kind Harvest), 2kg, $3.80 ($1.90 per kg). Online price 21 Oct 2026. Highest unit price found.
   • Woolworths: Woolworths Essentials Plain Flour 1kg, $1.30 ($1.30 per kg). Online price 21 Oct 2026.

   The lower price comes in a bigger pack (2kg). Check you will use it.

3. Surprise find: Beef (Swap idea)

   $7.00 (48%) less for 500g. Coles $14.50 − Woolworths $7.50 (500g worth of a 1kg pack) = $7.00 for 500g. $7.00 ÷ $14.50 = 48%.

   • Coles: Grass-fed Extra Lean Beef Mince (Cleaver's Organic), 500g, $14.50 ($29.00 per kg). On special, was $16.50. Online price 21 Oct 2026. Highest unit price found.
   • Woolworths: Woolworths Beef Mince 1kg, $15.00 ($15.00 per kg). Online price 21 Oct 2026. Lowest unit price found.

   A different product for the same use, compared per kg. Worth a look if it suits your household.
