Australia's two largest supermarkets, Coles and Woolworths, sell a range of products each week at just 50 per cent of the usual price.

These deals rarely bring in much profit for the supermarkets, but they lure customers into the store. Once that happens, the retailers are hoping shoppers will put plenty of full-price items into their trolleys to finish off their weekly grocery shop.

Lucky for you, each week Yahoo Finance scours the shelves to show you all the best half-price deals in one place.

These products sell for half-price from Wednesday September 4 until Tuesday September 10 inclusive:
