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.

Everybody gone quiet about the price of eggs now that price control says everything is legit...how about some apologies to Super Value for all the stink you all been giving them.

Boycott the businesses? We did not impose this tax...it's narrow minded people like you that voted these fools in that brought this tax upon us...the businesses are now the governments tax collectors.

This Super Value glitch is a non-issue...government just blowing smoke...it was day 1, there was a problem with the system, they backed it off...he is still going to pay the tax even though it did not get charged to the customer. Calm yourselves people, there are LOTS of 'glitches' going to be happening over the next couple weeks.
