Two for one offer
'Special' offers at the supermarket....

Some supermarkets charge more for goods at the checkout than the advertised shelf price. Special offers e.g. 2 for the price of 1, or 'Buy 2 get 1 free' may be promoted to persuade you to buy, but you don't always get the price reductions at the till.

You may be in a hurry, but always check your receipt after you have paid for the goods to make sure that you are not overcharged. If you are, tell them immediately to prevent it from happening to other shoppers. And, if it happens regularly, tell us.

 


Help us to stop the 'bad players', if this happens to you ....

Tell your local Trading Standards Service and tell us - it may help us to stop them and protect other people.
