Nope...barely a peep about the correct price of eggs...peep peep...the furor that surrounded that and frenzy in the community that built up around that, and barely even the smallest 'peep'. The Tribune did run an article, so that bit was done, but all those people who where up in arms...not a single one came back in and said...oh...OK...I guess Mr. Roberts is NOT this evil price gouger...he got the governments stamp of approval that his price was legitimate and within the price control guidelines as it pertains to eggs.
My question regarding their receipts then would be...were they charging that 10% gratuity before January 1st? Must be SO nice to have political connections and not have to pay your BEC bills and can totally disrespect the new VAT implementation.
All importation is done at the head office, and all pricing is set on the main computers in the head office and transferred electronically out to the stores. The store manager has little to no control over the setting of the prices...all done at the head office. So why go rattle the chains with the store manager? 'Cause he knows the store manager won't have the answers and he can make a spectacle of it all...if he had turned up at the head office it would have been a cut and dry situation of here are our numbers, here are the price control limits...here is the additional VAT charge...everything is good.
Pretty simple...but I guess it doesn't make good politics. PGC said he was going to 'look after' people with VAT...now they need to make themselves look like fools by grandstanding around giving interviews, talking crap and making the masses THINK that they are doing something constructive to ease their pain...alas nothing will be done, because nothing has to be done, Super Value's prices are fine (on price controlled items)...but that just don't make good press when people are screaming about the VAT price hike.
Of course the stores don't have all that info...that is all handled at the head office/warehouse location...don't expect the remote store location to have all the customs entries...fool...carry your backside and inquiry down to their head offices and get ALL the answers you want.
