Prices

Preise

I notice that Migros keeps increasing prices when a product is in demand but there is no objective reason for a price increase. In my opinion, this is a rip-off - superficially on a small scale - but these 10 centimes add up to tens of thousands of francs.

Example 1

Lemon soda and its siblings have become 10 centimes more expensive per can, even though other suppliers have lowered the price of this product. How does Migros justify this price increase?

Example 2

The fresh bread rolls are very cleverly priced. There, the price is increased sharply, but only slice by slice. Salami tactics are being used here. First a price increase for one bread roll. Then, a little later, another. And so on, always gradually. Probably because you're not supposed to notice?

I suggest that all products that will be subject to a price increase be marked with a large pink, clearly visible sticker two months before the price increase and then with an equally large, toxic neon green sticker for three months afterwards.

Surely transparency should no longer be a requirement these days?

What do other readers think about this idea and demand?

Many thanks
