Using compare and price drop alerts (the two features I use weekly)
Comparing two products side by side and getting told when one drops in price — these are the two features that turned the site into something I use myself.
By Dan Armstrong · 16 July 2026
Price comparison answers 'where do I buy this?'. Compare and alerts answer the two harder questions: 'which one do I buy?' and 'should I buy it today?'.
Side-by-side compare
Every product card has a small Add to Compare toggle. Tick two or three and a bar appears at the bottom of the screen with a count and a View Compare button. Hit that and you get a proper matrix — price, cost per serve, ingredient doses and where to buy each one, lined up in columns.
- •You can only compare within one category at a time. Comparing a creatine to a fat burner produces a table of blanks, so we block it and tell you which category you're currently in.
- •Remove anything straight from the floating bar — no need to open the compare page to change your mind.
- •The ingredient rows are where it gets interesting. That's usually where a $20 price gap turns out to be a 2g creatine difference.
Favourites and price drop alerts
Tap the heart on any product to save it. On the product page there's also a price drop card — give us an email once and we'll let you know when that product gets cheaper at any Australian retailer we track.
What we actually send
One email when a saved product drops. No newsletters, no drip sequence, unsubscribe in a click. If you haven't saved a product, you won't hear from us about it.
How I'd use them together
- 1.Shortlist three products in a category using the buyer guide.
- 2.Add them to compare and knock out the one that's under-dosed or poor value.
- 3.Save the remaining two and let the alerts tell you which one hits a good price first.
Supplement pricing in Australia is genuinely cyclical — most of the big retailers run a serious sale every few weeks. If you're not in a rush, waiting is usually worth 20–30%.
