Any Arnott’s Tim Tam fan here? I have to confess that I simply could not resist, and throughout the years, the cost of a pack of Tim Tam has always been part of my “unofficial” measurement of inflation (argh! they raised the price of Tim Tam again?!)

So my wife went to Coles to do some grocery shopping today, and came back with two packs of caramel chocolate Tim Tam because they are on special! All flavours of Arnott’s Tim Tam are currently half price in Coles — $1.37 per 200g pack. Having been tracking Tim Tam price for the last 15 years, I have not seen them so cheap. I would have bought more if it was me who went shopping today…

Sorry I could not find the Coles catalogue to back it up, but the price is reflected on Coles Online grocery shop. Sale ends 21^st Jan 2007.
