Grocery store policy, just not right


OK, It's been a great while since I've been on my blog. Lazy is the only excuse I have. And too, I wonder at times if anyone wants to read it anyway. But it's still a good way for me to vent my views and opinions. And vent my views is just what I'll do today. I have noticed in grocery stores lately that when a product is on sale, that the sale item is somewhere to the back and a higher priced item is where the sale price item should be, as far as the location of the sign. It's my opinion that the grocery store management is counting on people either not paying enough attention, are hoping that the person can't read well enough to read that the product at the sale sign, is not the product on sale. This irritates me so much. Willard and I can read and understand what they have done and choose the correct item, buried somewhere way behind the much higher priced item. But there are many that can't read well, that will assume the price and the sale item are together. And older folks that can't see that well, etc,etc. These are the kinds of people that are hit hardest by this slyness of our retailers. The one with little education, who have families to raise on what little money they bring into their homes. Or the older folks out there who live on fixed incomes. I wish each and every person who would read this would voice your objections to this kind of practice in our retail stores.

Until next time God bless.
