Coles & Woolworths Meat Markdowns

Looking for the best times to grab meat discounts at Coles and Woolworths? Scoring markdowns on meat is a great way to save on groceries, and both Coles and Woolworths have routines for marking down prices on fresh products approaching their best-before dates. While markdowns can vary from store to store, there are some common patterns to follow that can help you get the best deals. Here’s everything you need to know about timing your visits for Coles and Woolworths meat discounts.

Best times to find markdowns at Coles

  • Best Days: Markdown on meat typically begins on Mondays and Thursdays. Many stores start clearing out inventory in anticipation of new stock for the week.
  • Best Times: Around 8 am to 9 am or after 6 pm. Early morning markdowns can occur as employees check expiry dates from the day before, and late-day markdowns might happen if stock remains.

Best times to find markdowns at Woolworths

  • Best Days: Many Woolworths locations focus on markdowns on Wednesdays and Sundays to clear items before and after weekends.
  • Best Times: Around 7 am to 9 am (when new markdown stickers are often applied) or late evening (usually after 5 pm) as they try to clear stock by the day’s end.

Tips

Consider checking stores an hour before closing, as some employees tend to mark down perishables in the late evening. Markdown schedules vary, so it’s always good to check with your local store manager to see if they have specific times for markdowns.
