neil82 1,080 Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 they have to have a price list on display somewhere where the public can see it, no point trying to be awkward if a competitor wants to see it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fat-Ferret 857 Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 When I was young my first job was in a pet shop...they used to send me to three other local supermarkets to check the price of dog food, fish food and stuff like that... Anyway, I was checking prices one day in a big local supermarket and noticed the fish food was out of date by a few weeks, so I bought a tub.... The pet shop had their tropical fish delivery about a week later and the supplier always gave them about 20% more fish than they ordered as a lot died in transit. The morning they arrived I bagged up all the dead expensive looking ones and set off down the road to the supermarket with my out of date fish food and dead fish... I came out 50 notes up! I still smile when I pass the building to this day. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
