We go through a decent amount of olive oil, and that stuff is priced like liquid bitcoin at this point. Currently I just get the best priced non super budget bottle from the supie. Is there any better way to get it? I figure the cheapies will know if anyone does. Happy to buy bulk.

That's good to know thanks!
there was a post on the Costco Westgate page a day or so ago.
GEO Australian
Extra virgin olive oil 4L $49.99 now
BBD : August 2026ends 6/12/24 or when stock sold out
I'm in chch, no Costco yet :'(
It's sold now I think. I bought 12L and I saw someone buying 120L when I was there!
FYI, like most seed oils, standard olive oil is almost always chemically extracted. The only really healthy oil is Extra Virgin, which is cold pressed.
I get the 3L Red Island Olive Oil Extra Virgin cans from woolies or fresh choice. Not exactly cheap at about 60-65$, would have liked some of the costco stuff! I stick to ozzy or NZ(but usually way too much$) as the euro stuff has adulteration issues, youtube it if interested.
I just use sunflower for when im not adding it into my food, eg seasoning cast ironThat's a lot cheaper than the last lot I got which was $81 at FC IIRC
Last time I was at the FrozenDirect shop just up from The Palms they had 4L of olive oil for a decent price.
I've read the harvest this season has been very good, and prices are expected to drop considerably, so I wouldn't buy too much bulk!
