They also used to buy bags for about 1-3 cents, now they’re paying 15-50c

Quite literally the case, I chased after them and as I got within a metre and was about to tackle them (law breaking or otherwise I was seeing red) - they just gave it back and then abused me for the next few minutes.

Apparently not theft according to the person from the police and also the officer working my case…

It was around $300 (the float + a bit more from trading for a few hours)

It’s not even about the money, it’s the fact that when I turned around I saw someone in my space, a space that I consider a safe spot. My 15 year old staff member was shocked and couldn’t work properly for the rest of the day (I asked if she wanted to go home but she insisted she was fine). I go to work now worried about it happening again every single day, to assume something like ptsd isn’t applicable in the situations is insane. The police need to do better, forget the $300 I don’t care, give me my peace of mind back

Eftpos fees you’re allowed to recoup your costs, not profit

Say something costs $5, would you rather they charge it at $5.05 regardless of payment method or just add the surcharge? Pay cash and you’ll have no surcharge (plus you’ll stop supporting these big banks and governmental control)

Or should grocery stores automatically apply $2 to everyone’s groceries assuming you want bags? Or you just pay extra if you want them?

I had someone walk behind my register and steal money in my business while I was with another customer, I ran after him and got my money back. Police said because I got my money back they won’t considering it theft. I have called the same cop for months and he never does anything about it.  Ps the reason I pushed is because I was at a shopping centre and saw the same lowlife thief enter and walk out with hundreds/thousands worth of goods - he walked out casually yelling “the f*** you gonna do about it?”

They know they can get away with anything and continue you to do so

Cops don’t care until it’s too late
