Is this stealth price increase after the deposit scheme? (lemmy.world)

For a comparison, that would cost £1.75 ≈ €2.06 at local tesco, uk

without any deposit

Also, the fact that the deposit amount is in such a tiny font in store. There’s been a couple times where I’ve seen a pack of cans on sale only to get €1.20 added because of the deposit. It seems like such deceptive marketing.
