PakNSave
Went in to PNS today to buy, amongst other things, pumpkin. Decided to buy a full pumpkin (it's cheaper than the pieces of pumpkin) which was labelled as $4.99 each. No problem with that price - but went through checkout and checked on way home - pumpkin at $4.99 per KG which made it a couple of dollars more in cost. Sorted it out and got a refund - all good? No! The staff member when asked to change the price or the register didn't do anything. If you bought a whole pumpkin at PnS check your bill - you may getting ripped off - maybe that's the way the profits will stay up after GST is removed???
