Coles & Woolworths Price Comparison Scraper

Coles & Woolworths Price Scraper — Compare Australian Grocery Prices

Get products, prices, unit prices and specials from Coles and Woolworths in one run, plus ready-made price comparison rows that show which store is cheaper for the same or a very similar product. No login, no proxy setup. You pay only per result row.

What does it do?

• Searches Coles and Woolworths (Australia) for every search term you give it.
• Returns one clean product row per product: name, brand, size, price, was-price, unit price, special flag, barcode and image (when the store shows them) and a link.
• Pairs products across the two stores and returns comparison rows: the cheaper store, the price gap in dollars and in percent, and a match confidence score.
• Skips sponsored tiles and third-party marketplace listings, so you only get real grocery results.
• Connects to each store the right way automatically. Nothing to configure.

Who is it for?

• Price comparison apps and grocery deal sites
• Brands and category managers tracking shelf prices
• Analysts following grocery prices in Australia
• AI agents that need live grocery prices (works with the Apify MCP server)

Output

The run's dataset has two ready-made tables:

• Products: store, product, size, price, was-price, unit price, on special, image, link, search term.
• Price comparisons: size, Woolworths product, Coles product, Woolworths price, Coles price, cheaper store, gap ($), gap (%), match confidence.

Every row also has a rowType field (product or comparison), so you can filter rows when you export to JSON, CSV or Excel.

Pricing

Pay per event: a small start fee and one fixed price per result row (product rows and comparison rows). Blocked or failed requests produce no rows, so they cost you nothing beyond the start fee. See the Pricing tab for current prices, and set a spending limit for each run in Apify Console.

How accurate are the comparisons?

Matches use the barcode when both stores show it, otherwise the product name and the same size. Each comparison row has a confidence score between 0 and 1. Raise the minimum name match if you want only very close matches.
