None of the above (unless absolutely necessary)

I can get almost everything I need from Aldi and IGA.

The IGA prices are so jacked up bro πŸ˜–

Yes they are; Because they small businesses, which actually pay their employees a living wage and don’t have the buying power of the big supermarkets.

Even then, all the IGA locals around me and larger IGAs on surrounding towns are still cheaper than Safeway and Coles.

idk how much they pay their workers but I suspect that since iga is the distributor, they get most of the cut. I'm not faithful to any chain anyways, the post is mostly a joke
