Online Shopping Tips

Shopping with Woolworths online is easy, safe and enjoyable. But if you still have questions about how it works, then you will most likely find the answers here.

Adding a product to your cart

If you are shopping in the Food department, you can add products to your cart from a listing page by clicking 'Add to cart'. When browsing other departments, click the 'more details' to view a detailed product page in order to add the item to your cart.

If you are shopping on a desktop or tablet device you can also add products to your cart from the 'Quickview' screen. On a desktop, you can hover over a product with your mouse to see the 'Quickview' button. Similarly, if you are on a tablet device, clicking on a product image will display the 'Quickview' link.

Creating lists

To make shopping even easier, you can create shopping lists for products that you buy regularly. Create a new list by going to your account dashboard and clicking on 'Shopping Lists' in the menu. On this page you will see an option to create a new list. You can then add a product to a list while browsing any of the departments.

You can also add items to your Favourites list. These are products that you like but do not want to purchase immediately - this allows you to save items for later. You can do this by hovering over a product and clicking on the heart icon.
