“Using our Woolworths app you can hack your shopping by using our list function,” he says.

“Make sure you set your location to the store you shop at, simply press the item that you want to add to your list or you can scan the barcode from an item you already have and add it to your list.”

“Change the mode to ‘in-store’ mode and sort by aisle location,” he says.

“The list will categorise all the items into aisles so you can easily navigate and find your products.”

Unsurprisingly, customers flooded the comments to share their excitement over the time-saving hack.

“Stop. This is a game changer! I always get lost,” wrote one customer.

“Thank you so much, this will definitely make my shopping so much easier!” wrote a second user.

“That’s the only reason I shop at Woolies,” said a third customer.

Since joining TikTok in early September, Woolworths’ TikTok has amassed somewhat of a cult following, with customers across the country applauding the supermarket for their genius hacks.

Meanwhile, Liam Kirley has become the unofficial face of Woolworths due to the popularity of his videos on TikTok.

Previous hacks posted by the retailer have included self-serve tricks, time-saving register hacks and bag-packing hacks to keep groceries intact during travel.
