Just heard of a recent occurrence with a small supermarket chain that overcharged a customer, when the overcharge was discovered the customer went back the next day and a refund was provided.
This made me think about how much could you overcharge a customer and expect that they would not bother to try to get a refund.
Having worked in the bar and restaurant industry for a while I thought this could be a good scam for the employees to run to make some extra cash.
So I was wondering , if like some bars are known for overcharging are some supermarkets also better known for overcharging?
Which supermarkets are known for overcharging?
4am one morning a disparate group of five or six vagabonds coincidentally all find themselves at the same late night bar in Kuta. We're all seasoned SEA campaigners with most of us just passing through, off to somewhere else in a day or two.
We're having a good time of it when one of the guys offers his whiskey for us all to try as the taste seems odd. We all agree the drink doesn't taste how it should. Then we all pay closer attention to the taste of our own drinks and realize somethings up with the mix.
One by one we ask for a straight shot of what we're each drinking from the two barmen, and when it's poured we realize the original spirit whether it was vodka, bourbon, or scotch had been heavily diluted with the local moonshine/rice wine called brem.
We'd spent some money during our session at this bar and a couple of the lads were particularly unhappy, like really unhappy, to the point it was going to get a bit untidy in that bar if the manager didn't offer some compensation quickly.
The manager realizing his predicament accepted his fate and was marched to a convenience store by two of the fellas with a half bottle of scotch, vodka, and bourbon appearing on the bar in front us when he returned.

Not overcharging per se, but when the owner of the local cafe went away on a trip over New Years, the staff suddenly started insisting on cash instead of ABA…
