This is not a law, it's a common and voluntary thing by the retailer.
I wish it was a law, that'd be sick and nip this whole surge thing in the bud.
$15 in Quebec now, that's neat
Man, egg on my face, I thought it was a law. The way grocery stores are actively turning hostile towards customers we should probably make it a law.
In truth, we should probably nationalize grocery stores, but a more realistic, capitalism driven, "profits before people" approach would be to make it law.
I mean, you got it totally right about how it works, that's better than most people. I work in retail and you hear some pretty crazy beliefs about how it works.
Totally agree with you about nationalizing. Food is a universal right and we should treat it as such.
