The Commerce Commission has filed criminal charges against Woolworths NZ for alleged inaccurate pricing and misleading specials that may have breached the Fair Trading Act.

The commission filed the charges against Woolworths in the Auckland District Court.

It indicated in December last year that it would be filing separate criminal charges against Woolworths and two Pak’nSave supermarkets.

At that time, the commission said there were ongoing issues with pricing in the supermarket sector and the operators may have breached the Fair Trading Act.

    I’ve been using this wee gem for a while now and only this week had it fail me. So I dunno if some barcodes are blocked but the teller indicated I need to sign up and activate my card properly, which obviously isn’t going to happen.

    Maybe I should save one that works as I believe it generates a random one for each visitor?

      That’s a thought, screengrab a working one and the same lucky recipient will get all your points!

      I think according to their site you have a 1200 chance of it not working.
