Well, their system works very fast to increase prices, but it is a very complicated blockchain crypto algorithm to reduce prices.
They do not even implement the weekly specials properly. When I shop at Winton and Prince Charles stores, I come armed with my printed copy from the news paper. The butcher at Prince Charles is particularly stench and I often have to go to the store manager to implement the special prices. I have watched customers leave the meats and go away at Prince Charles, but I am not easily defeated and go to the manager. Mackey St. is more truthful to the weekly specials.
That said, the government has handled this price control issue very poorly, and seems oblivious to the fact that there is an increasing number of private citizens and cprporate entities who successfully sue the govt in many areas.
The taste of emergency powers must have gotten to the price control operators.
Super Value could afford to shut down, and send a lot people hme for christmas with a nice severance package.
I figured this price control would be a hurricane, so I stocked for a hurricane, so they can shut down and I have enought food till the end of the year.
For a family of 4 to buy the 25 dollars dinners, costs 100 dollars.
You can buy a turkey or ham [one , not both ]for 50 dollars, rice-onions and peas for 10 dollars, cooking oil for 5 dollars, canned mixed vegetables for 3 dollars, soda and ice cream for 15 dollars. There for 85 dollars you can feed 5-6 people and the food will last for boxing day too. You just have to tighten the belt.

Those who are addicted to loans will turn to loan sharks.
People do not learn how to make provisions to live within their means, tho Fidelity Bank does try to counsel them.

Actually, they selling off those chickens for 1.99 per pound as people stopped buying the roast chickens.

Well, the other daily allows no comments.
So, we have to live with the restrictions, or find our own platform somewhere else.
Been like that since covid, where comments are zapped from many online places.
