“We also allege that in many cases both Woolworths and Coles had already planned to later place the products on a “prices dropped” or “down down” promotion before the price spike, and implemented the temporary price spike for the purpose of establishing a higher “was” price.

    Good lord.

    The junk at Aldi isn’t “speciality products” LOL.

    You’re dealing in generalisations, and assumptions based on your own preferences.

    Maybe start by assuming that the people that own small grocers know more about the industry and how to compete than you do.
