Over-charged rubbish tags
Just now, I bought 2 orange rubbish tags and a 1 litre milk from Gull on Swanson Road. I realized they charged me $4.50 per tag. Normally, I pay only $3.80 per tag from the supermarket. $3.80 is already a high price and Gull charged me 70c more for each tag. So I went back to the store and asked for a refund for one tag only as I need one for tomorrow. However, they refused to refund me. I'm wondering if this is allowed or if it is okay to sell council tags for more than $3.80? I feel like I have been ripped off.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
