Coles manager Leah Weckert thinks her grocery store’s questionable ‘Down Down’ specials stand for reputable financial savings for consumers. The advertising tag is just one of 2 that have actually been called out by the customer guard dog, which lately released Federal Court activity versus Coles and Woolworths.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Watchdog (ACCC) has actually declared the grocery stores utilized dodgy prices techniques under its ‘Down Down’ and ‘Prices Dropped’ classifies to fool Aussies right into assuming they were conserving cash on grocery stores. It might have significant ramifications for the grocery stores, with a survey of greater than 3,000 Yahoo Finance visitors revealing virtually fifty percent (46 percent) stating they’ll go shopping there much less due to the claims.

“All of our specials, discounts, the programs we have like Down Down, they all aim to provide genuine savings for customers,” she told The Australian.
“And we believe that really goes to the heart of customer trust, and it’s something we do take very seriously at Coles, especially at the moment when we know that cost of living challenges are really facing a lot of households, Australians are doing it tough, and so we are working as hard as we can to provide value to customers in lots of different ways across the store.”
