Getting Robbed In Supermarkets

royconnolly

I have experienced being charged for items I haven't purchased and being charged for higher quantity of items than I had really purchased.  I know tourists are despised by these people but as a resident now and well known at my local supermarkets (Voli. idea and Aroma) I still get conned. I always check my receipt now and find I am still being cheated by these people! Idea is the worst and most regular cheats out of all of them.  One of the vile ignorant checkout operators whom has cheated me many times , today charged me for 10 beers when I only had 6. She also charges me for for carrier bags that I never purchased. In the same store I got 1 kilo of carrots and the horrible hideous woman that weighed them put a price of €24!!!!!  I believe it's their policy to rip off the foreigners deliberately!  It happens all the time to me. Can anything be done about this?

Hello,


Sorry to hear about that. Did you have a word with the store manager ?

Hello Bhavna

Yes I asked to see the manager but was told she wasn't there. I asked to see whoever was in charge and they still refused and ignored me. Finally I asked a girl that I chat with when I am in the store if she could get me the manager, and she promptly brought the manager to m and she refunded the money I was overcharged . But it continues in all 3 stores 😕
