For a curry ketchup fan, the fun definitely stops here!
After seeing a pallet at Kaufland, he complains to the supermarket chain.
Munich - Only very occasionally do food prices drop, and then it's an exception and remarkable.
Otherwise, many consumers are currently struggling with inflation.
A woman affected by poverty, for example, was recently stunned by her Rewe voucher after purchasing just three products.
And even if you don't have to turn over every cent twice, you won't be too pleased with the development.
The money is finally missing in the wallet.
Especially when it comes to everyday products that you cannot easily do without.
Kaufland customer complains about curry ketchup price
The staple food for a Kaufland customer may include the well-known “Spice Ketchup Curry” from the traditional Hela brand.
For some it is a cult, for others inedible.
And with this product of all things he complains about the price.
After discovering a pallet of the seasoning sauce and the matching price tag in a Kaufland branch, he posts it on the supermarket chain's official Facebook page.
"I paid 1.79 for my last bottle," writes the curry ketchup fan and asks: "When is the end of the road?" The sign on the pallet shows 3.39 euros as the price - apparently for the 800 grams -Bottle.
Have the costs really doubled?
The Kaufland price actually corresponds to that of the manufacturer in the online shop
no!
Bargain hunters can occasionally get such a bottle for 1.79 euros, the usual asking price is less than two euros, as
aktionspreis.de
lists - and in the week after Christmas 2022 Penny has the high-calorie candy for those 1.79 euros in the brochure.
In the manufacturer's official online shop, however, 3.39 euros are also called.
In this respect, Kaufland probably did not come up with the price arbitrarily.
The supermarket chain still wants to appease the customer.
"We thank you for your feedback, because pricing is important to us," said Kaufland's social media team under the complaint post.
"In addition to the many offers that we post weekly, we are of course happy to receive your feedback." Kaufland asks for a direct message.
Another Kaufland customer reacted stinky when walking through the branch.
