Trading Standards?
Should I get in touch with them?
Following on from another topic in General, and just to reiterate, my local shop, where I've been shopping for over 25 years, has just been taken over, and the previous staff have had to go, much to the distress of many.
Anyway. I went in there on Sunday evening to get my usual bits and pieces but, on Monday evening when I went in, the prices had shot up.
The cigarettes I buy have shot up a whopping 66p per packet from £5.13 to £5.79! A cheap bottle of wine previously costing £2.98 went up by 17p to £3.15. There are lots of other things as well, but surely this can't be right?
I know there's just been a budget, but even accounting for that, those prices shouldn't have increased by so much so, do you think I'd be in order to contact Trading Standards?
