Supermarkets to drop prices on some items

[Olive]

...I doubt there is anyone out here in customer land who actually trusts their supermarkets any more, and that is even sadder.

I don't think anyone has trusted supermarkets for a long time. For decades they have been wasting money on absurd advertising trying to convince us that they have our families' nutrition and wellbeing as their top priority, when surely everyone has known that profit is their only priority. And their unfair treatment of local suppliers is legendary.

I loathe our local supermarkets and do whatever I can to avoid shopping with them, even when it costs significantly more to buy from small local shops and markets. We grow most of our own fruit and veges, so can avoid that particular price-gouging, but meat and fish are hard to get elsewhere.
