@ppossej @SituationCake @Seagoon_ Assuming malicious intent is the worst part. They make you feel like a shoplifter every time you enter the store!
They're the ones who took over almost all the independent supermarkets and chains. (Remember Safeway? BiLo? Franklin's No Frills? Jewel? Tuckerbag? Festival? Rainbow? SSW?)
They're the ones who jacked up prices during a cost of living crisis and made billions.
They're the ones who ripped out humans at the checkout and replaced them with self-checkouts.
They're the ones that replaced most of the brand-name products with their home brands.
They're the ones that decided to clog up their aisles by doing night full during the day to save costs.
And then they assume we're the ones with a malicious intent!

@luciedigitalni @ajsadauskas @ppossej @SituationCake @Seagoon_ Another housing affordability issue.
