Woolworths Australia Product & Price Scraper

What does Woolworths Australia Product & Price Scraper do?

It returns Woolworths (woolworths.com.au) products with current prices and specials from any search term, category page, specials page or individual product URL. Each product comes with its price, was-price and savings, half-price and multi-buy deals, unit price, stock status, barcode (EAN/GTIN), category and aisle. Optionally it adds ingredients, allergens, the nutrition panel, health star rating and country of origin.

• ⚡ Fast and cheap. It reads the same JSON data the Woolworths website loads, with no headless browser. A full category of 1,000+ products takes about a minute and a half.
• 🏷️ Specials done properly. Half price, % off, price drops and "2 for $30" multi-buy deals, with was-price, saving and the per-item multi-buy price as numbers.
• ⚖️ Unit prices. Price per 1L / 100g / 1kg as a number, ready for comparisons. Loose items sold by weight are flagged.
• 🔢 Barcodes included. Every product comes with its EAN barcode at no extra cost, so you can match Woolworths against Coles, ALDI or your own catalogue.
• 🔎 Any entry point. Search terms, /shop/browse/... categories, the whole /shop/browse/specials section, or /shop/productdetails/... URLs.
• 🧾 Clean output. Flat JSON with numeric prices, ready for spreadsheets, databases and AI agents.

Using it from code or an AI agent

Call it through the Apify API, or let an AI agent use it through the Apify MCP server.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/<ACTOR_ID>/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<YOUR_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchTerms": ["milk"], "maxResultsPerSource": 50}'

In an MCP client (Claude, Cursor and others), add the Apify MCP server (https://mcp.apify.com) and ask, for example, "What's on half price at Woolworths in the snacks aisle?". The agent can call this Actor and get back structured prices.

FAQ

Why are some products missing a price? Products that are currently unavailable online have no price; available is false for them.

Why do some products show sponsored: true? Woolworths mixes paid placements into search and category pages. They are real products and are kept, flagged, and not repeated.

Are member-only (Everyday Rewards) prices included? No. You get the prices any shopper sees without logging in.
