minus-squareNotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up29·6 months agoAbout a year ago I was at a grocery store and bought one of those 473ml bottles of pop at the till. It rang up on the till as $2.99 I told them to remove that, it’s ridiculous, went to the pop section, and got the exact same 2L pop on sale for $1
