Shameless Pusateri’s

[art van dele]

Pustateri’s fine food got caught price gauging selling a tin of Lysol wipes for $30. No shame no conscience, but then again they have been doing price gauging for 30 years.

But they released such a heartfelt and honest apology.

Part of my oversight includes some retail space.
It is TOTALLY reasonable that head office would accidentally create a hyper-inflated price tag... and that the general manager would not notice the error, and that the associate manager of the specific area would not notice the error, and that the clerk putting the signs out would not notice the error (this is the only believable link in the chain of failure).

This from a place that charges $8 for a box of Kraft dinner

LOL LOL LOL.... I know what do they think?? They think people are idiot???They were caught doing stupid things once before when their main shop was shut down for infestations, they were taking the contaminated products to other store to sell.
I think they are on their way out. They made a huge mistake by co-partnering with Sacks.

“We’re sorry”.

We’re sorry we got caught.

I am no fan of Ford... but he has impressed me and been very 'leaderly' in this time of chaos... he actually called them out at the presser. Good for him.

Didn't know these pucuronis were still in business?

The prepared meals at Longo's are infinitely superior to anything they are serving. I'm having withdrawal symptoms since they've shut down their kitchens due to the contagion.

Is McEwan's Grocery still making prepared meals?

Rich people deservedly getting screwed by a retailed that is in the business of screwing people. I don't think this can be considered news.

I agree with you. I did not vote for him but I would consider voting for him in the future just by they way he's performed and managed the crisis, so far.

Pusateri's can charge whatever they want, but their actions are short sighted and make for a very poor business decision. Look at the blow back and the optics that hit them at this unprecedented time of pandemic hardship for their pompous brand. Their regulars are used to being fucked at the checkout anyway but not like this!

Wow... your rage at Trudeau and obsession with bver is pretty serious.
You might want to talk to someone about acquiring some coping skills.

You're right it's hard to separate the 2 of them. The only is way is Trudreau apologies more. But its more bemusement than rage. Sorry if this offends you.

You don't actually need Lysol wipes to clean surfaces. Soap and hot water work perfectly fine.

Time for a boycott.

I know, right? This is great. lol ^^^

Not to mention, they don't ring in amounts by hand. All that stuff is on computers. I'm curious to know if the wipes were that price at one or more stores. Either way, they're idiots.

I have to give DF some credit during this pandemic. He's doing a good job considering the magnitude of the situation. I wouldn't want to be in shoes. What a mess.

Weren't they closed down a few years ago for health violations? I think it was the Avenue Rd location that had a pest problem. I recall they were quick to hire a PR company to help save their image.

I'm not offended at all.
Just a little concerned that you can seemingly turn any topic into a hate on for Trudeau and bver.

Those Pusateri useless twats probably don't even carry ass meat. The most expensive ass meat in the world.
