We are still choosing and checking items for this category. They will appear here once the prices are sourced.
Source: Stats NZ selected price indexes, July 2026 (milk June 2026), as reported by NEWS WIRE and interest.co.nz. These are national averages, not the price at one store. The official release is at stats.govt.nz.
How the store comparison will work
Same item, two stores
Each week we compare the same item at PAK'nSAVE and Woolworths NZ. The cheaper one is highlighted and links to the product so you can buy it there. Every price is date-stamped.
Brand spotlights
Some weeks a New Zealand brand may sponsor an item. Sponsored spotlights are always labelled, and sponsors never change which store is shown as cheapest. See how we make money.
