and about 3 nanoseconds after that realisation, #ColesWorth lentil counters upped the price of Fresh fruit and veg by 30% in #Oz due to fuel price hikes.

(it may take a few hours to explain to the Lowest paid worker with the price gun tho .. )

Coles, Woolworths and Aldi are all terrible corporations. Stop doing free propaganda for corporations
