I don't do on line shopping asI don't have the need but I have watched the Pickers at work at my local. Some of them are MEN? NUFF said.

Last week I was overcharged by $60 . The week before by $12.75. I ALWAYS check the prices and if I think they may not have the 'specials" in the system I take a . Photo of the price so after I have paid I don't  have to wait while they find someone to run around and check the price. Also last week at Woolies they had butter on special for $ 1.39 down from  $1.49. BS I was livid so I showed the manager the photo I had taken the week before with the price clearly marked at their usual price of $1.39. What a load of BS I said. Do they think we are stupid?

Gert, do you know the scanning rule...
If you are overcharged at the register, from what the shelf price is, you get that item for free..

[Halex]

Good on you Gert

Obbie was your delivery correct?

Well they told me they were experiencing errors & trainng is in progress. I asked were the errors  at the store or the driver. They just told me it starts with the packers & goes from there.

They refunded me my missing items & this time my delivery fee too.

Unfortunately only the first item is free but even a small win is still a win.

We had that happen with the movie Skyfall when it was a new release, so it was about $25 but we got it free

I don't shop at Coles or Woolworths. Their service is poor as indicated by this thread. I don't want to support a monopoly either.
The last time I looked their fruit and veggies are not fresh if compared to local fruit and Veggie shops or Foodland or IGA.
I think if we don't take a stand and shop locally and in season our choices will be limited to what these two stores want us to buy.
Because we have Thermomixes and make things from scratch it seems logical to support our local food producers and companies.
It is good to reduce "food miles" also.
Home delivery is reliably available from local business at similar prices with more personalized service.
This has got to be the better way to go.

I loved my local fruit and veg shop but it closed down probably due to the fact that they were in the same complex as woolies its a pity small business owners are pushed out

Yes My order was all correct Hally.

I only do  WW online once a month, for bulky stuff, freezer stuff.

Then do small shops at IGA weekly.
