Mouldy ravioli

published

I bought some ravioli from Coles Canberra Centre and kept it in the fridge for a few weeks before eating. When I opened the sealed packet, there was mould in at least a third of it.

It was still a month to the best before date, and I put it straight in the fridge when I got home (so it wouldn't have been out for more than 30-45 mins in traveling from the store).



Coles won't take responsibility because it's not their brand, I also didn't keep the receipt.

Lesson: buyer beware and keep your receipt

Dont buy this rice.

published

I put this pack into the microwave for 90 seconds and look what resulted. The smell was worse than you could imagine. It was black and sludgy.
I will never buy it again.
Packed in Thailand from imported ingredients- should know better. I had to demand a refund as I didn't have the docket or the filthy product. They certainly weren't keen on refunding my money- who keeps dockets for rice? and why would I take this disgusting mess back to the supermarket?- We couldnt even keep it in the house bin.

The staff at this store are all very nice and helpful when you ask them a question or help with an item. They stop what they were doing and go out of there way to show the way to a item

Fantastic store

published

I shop at Coles very often. Every time I shop there I get greeted by very friendly staff. They stock all the lines I like and if they don't have a product I ask them if they can order it

Dandy Bacon

published

Purchased 250g pre packed Dandy bacon. 3 slices, when opened 2/3 of it was just fat. We were lucky to get enough bacon to feed the two of us. Very disappointing

Self checkouts the worst of the supermarkets, "stone baked" bakeries the best of the supermarkets

published

Positives:
- Stores with the "stone baked" sourdough bakery products. Finally some bread that's worth eating unlike the usual boring-white-bread-only culprits of Woolworths, Bakers Delight, Brumby's, etc.
- Logical floor layouts (pantry "basic" items grouped together followed by pantry "junk food" items grouped together followed by laundry items grouped together, etc).

Negatives:
- Self checkout experience is frustrating due to the requirement to weigh each item scanned (Woolworths doesn't have this problem). For smaller convenience/city stores I'd rather shop at Woolworths if available nearby for this reason alone.
- EFPTOS cash out limits at self checkouts are capped too low (Woolworths is better).
- Coin operated trolleys.

Love coles

published

Coles for a big supermarket is amazing. Staff are friendly, clean shops wide variety and revolutionary layout. They seem to invest more money in making their stores and staff better and it really shows. Kudos coles!

Rotten nectarines..grapes..old tiny roasting potatoes half the size of an egg and suspect meat !

published

Rotting fruit and partially frozen meat all at exorbitant prices. What are you buying? Four sub standard products in one purchase. Coles you are taking advantage of this virus to off load your old stock. Shame on you. I will no longer enter your store.

Re-stocking of shelves

published

Why have coles got no stock? They've employed thousands of new staff yet shelves are still bare. Are selfish morons still stockpiling?
Woolworths has stacks of toilet paper on their shelves, unfortunately it's too expensive for me, yet coles has none!! One day I was told that they didn't get a delivery the night before. Come on coles get your act together, if woolworths can do it, why can't you?

Local and Well Stocked

published

I'm a fan. So close and well stocked and they have everything I need. I understand that they take business away from some of the smaller local companies which is a shame and I definitely recommend everyone to support local businesses. I always get other items from my local grocer, butcher, health store, etc but for everyday convenience Coles do a great job

Coles Supermarkets

directed to the Coles Supermarket, Castle Towers-Castle Hill NSW.
what is the Store health & safety policy in respect of 'on the job tobacco smoking'?
employees -wearing Coles identity branded vests regularly gather at the entry from carpark to store (within the confins of the building) and eat & smoke. The area is the main access to the retail food & fast food halls.
correct me if i am wrong -- my belief is 'smoking'is prohibited within public buildings.

Have you complained to Coles or the centre management of Castle Towers or the health Dept. I dont know why you would be complaining here for in the1st place on a public review forum.

It happens in every shopping center across Australia If you are that worried about it use a different entrance or shop on line or stay home

Coles Supermarkets

Why are toilet rolls still being sold in blocks of 32 rolls. Sizes of 8 or 10 may give everyone a chance to have some. I went to your randwick store. By the time the elderly went through the shop 7am to 8am they cleared it out again. Maybe 30 mins would be better. We also ended up buying a lot of our shopping also at harris farm while we waited until we could get into coles. These arrangements are bad for your business. Thank you for your time. Darryl.

I agree.
Since Coles don’t reply why ask here rather than contact them directly ?
