They can't spell
I don't think they have the rite stuff
NKOTB! - you don't hear that much
It's a marketing thing - some of the local regulars can't spell either.
Theres a lot of catfood shoppers, that don't have cats.
Have they got the Natural Sour Cream and Chives? It was a Woolworths exclusive but they pulled the line so maybe they end up there? My wife is livid about it, tried calling the company and they have no clue where the unsold packets ended up.
that sounds like rite price.
They deal with deleted lines and out of date food (upto a year out of date is common). They also import loads of food from China.
If you do shop there, be extra careful about what you buy. I've seen cheese months out of date, yoghurt the same. But, they also sell reasonable items (eg. I bought small bottles of lemonade for 20c instead of the usual $2.50 at Coleworths). Each bottle then had 10c refund on it! The juice was 1-2 weeks past expiry.
The record I saw for out of date was Coles lemon juice (small). It was about 2 years out of date And almost as expensive as Coles.
isn't illegal to sell out of date products?
@tuzii: There are two dates 'use-by' and 'best-before'. It is illegal to sell a product after its use-by date has expired. Best-before is ok and just means it has lost some of its quality.
@jv: I won't shop there, I've seen muesli bars with spiderwebs on the inside of the wrapper (this is not a joke).
@snoo:
spiderwebs on the inside
That webbing is usually a sign of weevil larvae - and that shop now has a big problem :-( I think it was either Sanitarium or Healtheries in N.Z. who had problems with some of their products getting infected in transit during the late 1970's,and had to explain that they could [a] wrap the product in plastic that would require an oxy torch or machete to open or [b] fumigate with so much methyl bromide that third world dodgy nuclear waste dumps would refuse to handle it :-(
Bay leaves are a good prepellent if you do get them at home, but I would imagine [and hope] that that store had done a pretty good clean up when they found them. I would have pointed it out to the manager, and would have wanted to know as soon as possible if I was one…
@terrys: I use bay leaves to stop ants. usually they enter the house through a crack some where so I put the bay leaf in that crack. it doesn't have to be jammed in. just loosy placed. even though there is room for the ants to walk around or over the leaf they don't go anywhere near it.
@terrys: It was a number of years ago. I did take it back, they replaced it, I threw out the replacement, and never went back.
Not sure, I saw sea salt and barbecue
Write right or rite?
Cheers OP for the heads up. For anyone else in SA who's never been - shop here first (esp for canned, dried goods), then shop in the normal shops. Saves you heaps.
Never heard of them.
