Coles and Woolies are following Aldi's lead and cutting the number of product lines they stock as a result of customers finding that too much choice is stressful. So what do you think? - How do you feel about having less choice in the supermarket? What would you do if your usual brand was no longer available? Would you prefer more or fewer brands to choose from? Does having too many brands to choose from make it harder to decide? When you are faced with a wide range of products to choose from, how you make your decision?

I really believe that people...like myself really appreciate choice at the supermarket...BECAUSE WE LOVE TO COOK...and try different brands, different varieties...the more to chose from the better. I think people who dont have the time to prepare meals need something quick and easy...in and out of the supermarket and if the meAL IS READYMADE..BETTER FOR THEM..!!..If my usual brand was not available Im very happy to experiment with another. If Im faced with a wide variety of choice I absolutely look forward to the challenge of..."hmmmmm...!!!....this looks interesting and different from my usual product...gotta try this..!!"...so to me..the more choice the better.
