Countdown Supermarkets

Huge store. Love the health aisle where there is a range of healthy ‘superfood’ items available. Large supermarket with lovely wide aisles. Always clean and well stocked.

I mainly shop here because they offer online shopping with pick up and overall, they are cheapest. When I shop in store staff are friendly and helpful.

Great store in Oamaru. Large carpark, a lot of stock, great accessible ramp into the store for those who need it and for trolleys. Popped in a few times for some lunch and something cool to eat and drink at the beach, staff were super lovely, you can tell they have a sense of local pride. Just wish they had more options for ice blocks and ice creams on a hot day!

Used to be my supermarket of choice but over the last few months prices have crept up seeing me go to NW more often. However, we do our large monthly shop using click and collect which is a big bonus to save time, just don;t enjoy shopping in the store for some reason.

Countdown is my supermarket i do our large shop at. However, im considering switching to nw as i am sick of the enormous queues. I once waited in line for half an hour while 8 months pregnant and was late to pick up my son from kindy. Not all the checkouts were open either. Another time an operator put raw chicken on top of my dairy products no in a bag. There was chicken liquid all through my bag!!!! I had to return and argue for replacement dairy products
