I just want other peoples opinions, my local mace store have promotions, e.g. two for a reduced price or whatever, but these goods are charged at full regular rate at check out. Most people don't complain so i guess it goes smoothly and profitably.

To my shock this morning I complained, having being overcharged on at least one item each weekend for three weeks now. I bought surf breeze 1.1 kg, marked 2.69 on shelf, but 3.80 at till, complained after going back and checking, received a refund for the difference, but , to my amazement, that was it, no changes were made to till system, so the next person who picks up a box will be charged 3.80.

In a time when many people don't check receipts for small items, it is these little, ongoing rip offs that frustrate me. So please let me know if this policy is being practiced elsewhere, or just here. read full story / add a comment

The Sunday Independent (the weekend organ of the Independent Newspaper group, famously run by industry boss William Martin Murphy, leader of the attempt to break the unions in the 1913 Lockout immortalised in Strumpet City) has two copies of the same story sandwiching a fulminating opinion piece about the IRA. The two working titles show an indecision as to whether or not the IRA should be implicated directly in alleged threats against Shell/Statoil or not. Make up your mind editors. Do you dare to tell a blatant lie or not? read full story / add a comment

OVER the past year the local people from the pretty little West Bank village of Bil’in have been holding protests every Friday against the planned building of Israel’s Wall (Apartheid Wall/Security Fence) right outside the northern section of the village. Each Friday villagers have been joined by left wing Israeli’s and international activists to march to the line where the wall is to be built. Two weeks ago (Friday 8, July) a Palestinian youth died from injuries he received while on the protest from a ‘rubber bullet’ fired by the Israeli Defense Force (IDF). Below is a report from the latest protest at the West Bank town. read full story / add a comment
