Bought some strawberries from here and dont realise that they had fungus on them until I went to put the shopping in my car. Went straight back. Cashier told me to check properly next time before I buy. Very rude and abrupt answer. I was shopping with a young child and just picked up the punnet and looked at the top quickly. They should be checking the fresh produce regularly for any items that are not up to a sellable standard. That experience has put me off shopping here. There was no apology just a blunt answer. In other stores they just swap it over, putting the rotten product into the waste area. This lady wasted my time with refunding the item then reselling it. Ive worked in retail so I know now its done. The prices are a lot higher than other stores. In an emergency its worth it but for everyday shopping is too costly.

I paid for a 50g of amber leaf and was given a 30g instead. When I returned and politely explained the situation I was accused of switching them outside. Im a father that was coming home from work and was berated by an employee in front of a whole store. I was happy for them to refund me the 50g and I would pay for the 30g in my possession. Makes me wonder whether theres something dodgy going on there. Really upset and outraged by the experience.
