Kellogg's LCMs Split Stix Yoghurty Rice Bubbles Snack Bars 5 pack

Is this one worth buying?

Kellogg's LCMs Split Stix Yoghurty Rice Bubbles Snack Bars 5 pack is currently listed at $2.25 at Woolworths, against a usual price of $4.50. The dollar saving is small, so treat it as something to add to a shop you were doing anyway rather than a deal to chase.

Hard cheese and butter freeze well and are the two things worth buying extra of — butter in particular keeps for months in the freezer with no change in how it behaves. Yoghurt, cream and fresh dips do not freeze usefully. If you are buying discounted dairy, plan the meals that use it before you put it in the trolley, or it becomes an expensive way to fill the bin.

Half price specials at both Coles and Woolworths normally run for one week, from Wednesday to the following Tuesday, and the same lines tend to come back on promotion every couple of months. If you miss this one it will very likely return — but the price shown here is the current one, and prices can change without notice.
