Shrinkflation - eat your heart out – Still a great brekky cereal, but Uncle Tobys have embraced shrinkflation, so the 700g family packs aren’t available and we’re stuck with 510g. Also, the Uncle Toby’s portal for feedback is non functional
Overpriced with recent shrinkflation – Weeties have been my daily breakfast for years, one reason being the good price per gram. With the recent reduction in pack size from 700g to 510g FOR THE SAME PRICE, they're now equivalently priced to more varied cereals that contain other ingredients like nuts and dried fruit, so why would I buy a simple, single ingredient product that should be… Read more
much cheaper to make than more interesting ones at the same price per gram. No more Weeties for me - and I'll also stop buying Uncle Tobys in general due to this blatant price gouging.

Uncle Toby's have done it again! – Multiple product weights multiple prices. IS THIS LEGAL one could call it deception or discrimination to those who shop in one retailer to another. Please see images taken from Google search "Weeties" attached
Blatant price gouging – The recent change from 700gm to 510gm packet of Weeties and no change in price is unethical and sooo disappointing. Not only is there now excessive packaging, Uncle Tobys profit margin has gone up a whallaping 25% plus which will all be blamed on the government. Such a disgrace. I will do my best not to support this company in future unless they make some appropriate changes. Show details
Discusting price gouging and wasteful packaging – The 700g family pack of weaties is now 510g with little difference in price. This is a deveant method by companies to increase profits. In a time when we should be reducing package waste, these types of pactices increase packaging use. More cardboard per 100g of product. Shameful practice Show details
Best breakfast cereal – This is the best cereal for Type 1 diabetics!! Please keep Show details
Sooo disappointing – Very disappointed with the sizing of the packets of weeties now. Smaller packaging but same price. Been buying weeties for years and years. Not happy!! Show details
Smaller packaging – Should have guessed that a revised smaller packaging was on the way when Weeties disappeared off the shelf for a while. Just hoping that with no comparison we wouldn't notice how massively thinner the box was. This drives me nuts. I'd rather pay a bit more but get the same amount of product. So deceptive !.
Shrinkflation – Very sneaky of uncle Toby's to downsize the package size of Weeties to 510 GM but not reduce the price by the same proportion amount. People are not as stupid as they think they are.Very sneaky. Show details
Uncle Toby's Weeties Price Gauge – Weeties have been a longtime breakfast cereal in our household, but no longer They sold Weeties for $7.00 for 700g which has already gone up in price significantly now they have changed the packaging. Now sold for $6.00 for 510g a 27.14% DECREASE IN PRODUCT which equates to a 15% PRICE INCREASE. When does the greed and unfair price increases stop? Shame on you Uncle Tobys Show details
Great – I was looking at products on Uncle Toby’s website, mainly cause I was reading reviews. But I did consider trying some more cereals, I got this and Vita Brits and yep awesome. The reviews weren’t happy with these but I love them. I add them to my usual cereal setup for some toasted wheat flavours.
Cannot fault – Great taste and texture. Simple pure ingredients, perfect for those with allergies.
King Willie is ok by me – Vita Brits are far superior to Wheat bix. Sometimes you get sick of eating the bricks of wheat and weeties makes a good change. Good value cereal and no sugar. Buy on special at Coles. Show details

The simple things – The best thing I find with weeties is its simple uncomplicated texture and shape having a bowl of weeties in cold milk really brings a smile to my face and in this complicated world we live in the simple things really make a difference thank you king wilie weetie. Batman
Help me find – Love weeties but want to buy weeties that aren't wholemeal. When I was a kid they weren't wholemeal Where can I buy un wholemeal pkts or Dont they make them anymore
Love em – Great breakfast cereal. Just love the Weeties flavour. Nothing added. I eat them with just full cream milk and no sugar. I occasionally eat them with some Tasmanian Leather wood Honey.
Weeties king for president – Top notch, but I keep burning them on my George Foreman Grill. Other than that 10/10 would eat again!!! Sincearly the Weeties king
Hard pieces in it – I have always loved Vita Brits but the last few boxes I have bought there have been very hard, gritty pieces in it which could have caused problems with fillings in teeth.
Weeties, love the taste – Still love my Weeties even after all these years and love to start my day with them. They're great for a midnight snack too. I love that they are healthy and I can personalize my breaky by adding my choice of extras like banana or strawberries.
Love Weeties, but have small complaint – I have been buying Weeties for many years and have them every morning for breakfast. I just love them, but in the last few boxes I have had there is very hard pieces in there, sort of like stones in the mix. Never had that before. Please check your quality control. Thanks Yvonne
I can't live without my Weeties! – My favourite cereal for what seems like hundreds of years..I'll never get sick of eating Weeties, I even have them for a nightime snack. Filling, delicious, low sugar, low fat, available in an economical HUGE box!
Excellent – Weeties are great. Best of all they are good for the whole family to eat and I don't have to worry that they are eating extra sugar or fats unnecessarily. Add milk or even some chopped fresh fruit and you have yourself a nutritious and yummy breakfast. I'll have to admit that I used to eat these with sugar but I have stopped adding the sugar and… Read more
they are actually not that bad. They have a richer almost nutty taste than a wheat biscuit and don't get as soggy when milk is added. Would highly recommend for those who want to control what they eat as there are no hidden additives in Weeties, just simple ingredients. Is a really healthy cereal alternative. Is nice to find a cereal without added ingredients something that is really hard to find these days. Is made from 99% wholegrain wheat. Is a bit bland if you are used to sugared cereal but doesn't take long to get used to.
