IGA Marketplace is my closest supermarket, and so I regularly come here to do my grocery shopping. The trading hours are convenient (6am to midnight, 365 days of the year), and the staff are extremely friendly. Being a "concept" IGA supermarket, the focus is less on everyday brands, and more on premium, organic and specialist products and produce.

While there is a smaller range in terms of products you'd find in the likes of Coles and Woolworths, there's a lot more products that would be hard to find everywhere else. Prices on all items tend to be more expensive than Coles and Woolworths, but specials make up for this. There's a lower-than-average turnover on meat, dairy and vegetables, so you can also get good value on clearance specials.

If you're after the cheapest prices possible, IGA Marketplace is probably somewhere to avoid. However, if you really like your food, like trying new things and prefer high-quality ingredients, this is where you want to do your grocery shopping.
