I live 300m from a Woolworths, inner suburb of Melbourne, North-West, 4k from CBD.
Every night, 20 minutes before closing, I walk over to see if the Night Fillers have any Platinum to put out.
Usually, no, but on the rare occasion they do, I take a photo.
Then I come back the next night to see where we stand.
Below is what I have collected over the last three and a bit months.

4 days to clear the shelf...


2 days to clear the shelf...


1 day.

Of course this is only an example of 1 store and what was on the shelf on that particular night and at that particular time.

I have noticed that 'click and collect' is available from this store, even when shelves are bare.
There might be a higher risk of theft in this location, so stock could be available behind counter.

At another Woolworths store, last week in North Melbourne;
20 tins of Stage 1, expiration date 17 December 2021.
Stage 3 alongside had an expiration date of a more respectable 07/22.
Yesterday the shelf still had 20 tins of Stage 1, with an expiration date of 17 December 2021 and the same number of Stage 3 tins...


Last night, in a moment of exasperation, I wrote to the a2 Nutrition Careline to let them know how rare it was to see stock on shelves in my area.

Below is their prompt response.
