Supermarket pricing

Glenice from St Albans

Comparing pricing between Supermarkets.
A couple of weeks ago I purchased a
...1000gm block of Mainland Tasty Cheese $21.49 from New World Durham Street.
As I was requiring a large amount of cheese, I purchased the next day another
...700gm block of Mainland Tasty Cheese $21.79 from Fresh Choice Edgeware.
I phoned the second supermarket and queried the price and was told that their pricing is controlled by head office.
I can understand 30cents difference in price but when it was 300gms smaller and 30c dearer; I can’t accept.
I feel somebody has read the wrong line when pricing this item. Which one is correct?? Or are we still being ripped off by supermarkets.
Brushed aside by the Floor Manager.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
