Kmart announces big changes in all stores

At a time when rising costs and financial pressures have become everyday challenges for Aussie families, Kmart is dropping prices on over 1,000 essential items across homewares, beauty, toys, entertainment and kids' apparel — and the good news is, the reduced prices are here to stay.

While many retailers have raised prices due to increased supplier costs, Kmart boasts the ability to design their own products and leverage their scale and sourcing capabilities, collaborating directly with global partners to keep costs low and pass on the savings.
