Why does 1 litre of Woolies or Coles Milk cost $1.20, 2 litres costs $2.00. Yet 1 litre of Pauls Milk (at Woolies or Coles) costs $2.20.

because the big supermarkets have such a large market share when the contracts come out for coles or Wollies fresh milk they can really screw the milk factories down on price. World milk markets have rebounded from the recent lows and are not that far off high prices from a few years ago but the prices Aus dairy farmers are getting are still pretty shit. Most other countries are back to very good prices and have been for a while.

Actually because the real answer is much simpler; it's because the federal government de-regulated the price of milk.

Aus and NZ are the only contires in the world with a deregulated milk industry. And it's no surprise both usually have the shittest prices and most volatile prices. Then you have crap like last year where one of the milk companies because they didn't make enough profit for the share holders got money back from farmers on milk they already purchased. It's a fucking shit show at the moment.

Our local Coles sells milk for 90 cents per litre.

Bought some of the high protein milk the other day, tastes great, much more creamy, I only use it to make cappuccinos, but definitely makes a difference froths up much better than the normal milk..

Also saw this the other day someone at work was having it, I don't drink chocolate milk generally, but this could be a great protein shake alternative for those that are into it.
