I've never shopped at Shein or Temu and I'm hoping to keep it that way forever

@tuban_muzuru Yes they are. One of the many reasons I don't like them.

The wife and I spent most of the day at the mall today. Granted, a lot of that time was getting our tattoos and having to wait for the person before us so we could get our regular artist. We did a little bit of shopping as we got some stuff from Rue 21 since they are going out of business and things were 50% off. Wife got some Hello Kitty stuff from Forever 21 since it too was 50% off due to a sale.

Now to end it with some food and video games.

Another change in French laws for supermarkets: up from July, shops are obliged to clearly affix signs to products with shrinkflation. The previous and new price in terms of a unit (e.g. kg, litre, etc.) must be indicated and the price increase calculated in euros or as a percentage.

Eine weitere Gesetzesänderung in Frankreich für Supermärkte: Ab Juli sind die Geschäfte verpflichtet, Produkte mit Preiserhöhungen deutlich zu kennzeichnen. Der bisherige und der neue Preis in einer Einheit (z. B. kg, Liter usw.) müssen angegeben und die Preiserhöhung in Euro oder als Prozentsatz berechnet werden.

@helinglot Da hat dir Deepl leider was falsch erzählt!
Ich schrieb: Läden sind verpflichtet, Produkte mit Shrinkflation zu kennzeichnen, und zwar mit dem Vorher-Nachher-Preis, bezogen auf eine Einheit. Es muss in Euro oder Prozent anggeben werden, wieviel die Shrinkflation ausmacht.
Es geht nicht um normale Preiserhöhungen. Und eine Preisangabe auf Einheiten wie L/Kg etc. bezogen, ist in Frankreich schon lange vorgeschrieben, findest du im Regal an jedem Produkt.
Dein Text ist leider falsch.

tinyimportance,

Really gotta sort this whole dietary thing out. Supermarkets are dangerous places for people like me, well stores in general really but I digress. How come it doesn't matter how much I spend I never come out with more than two bags max? What's going on with that aye? There needs to be like I dunno, night classes for people like me or a shit-shoppers support group. I'm regretting all those years of staying in the car scrolling when I should have been pushing that trolley paying attention and taking notes.
It's a forest of temptation inside, traps everywhere, brightly coloured shiny things too and most of them you don't even realise you needed until you workout what it actually is.
Tried lists they don't feckin work either

Quick heads up for Tesco shoppers: a lot of their peppers come from Israel.

@fkamiah17 thanks for the heads up. I wasn't aware and not sure I would have checked peppers.

@fkamiah17 If memory serves me right, Lady Porter, heiress of Jack Cohen, the founder of Tesco, is an Israeli citizen. She moved to Israel and took citizenship there so that she couldn't be extradited to stand trial on charges of fraud and corruption in public office...

Das neue Gartenjahr steht vor der Tür, und ich stöbere bei den üblichen Verdächtigen nach Samen.
Oh, Samen Mauser hat CBD Samen. Interessant, ich habe schon darüber nachgedacht eine Teemischung mit CBD Hanf zu produzieren. Ok. CHF 30.- für ein Briefchen ist schon etwas hochpreisig. Besser mal anfragen, wieviele Samen sie dafür zu liefern gedenken.

Drei. Einzelne. Samen. Bei allem feminisieren und WasWeissIchWasieren, das Angebot schlage ich aus.

@levampyre in der Schweiz ist der Anbau Konsum und Handel mit CBD Produkten ohne weiteres erlaubt. Ist erst seit ein paar Jahren.

Faser und Samenhanf auch. Darf einfach nicht mehr als sounsoviel THC haben.

Keine Ahnung wie das in Deutschland aussieht.

Wir dürfen hier ja auch ohne pipapo Schlafmohn anbauen, solange wir kein Opium daraus machen.

@levampyre@chaos.social avatar

@sibylle Stimmt, Schlafmohn ist auch so ein Problem hier. Den hab ich natürlich auch gern im Saatenbrot. 🙈 Ich muß mein Wissen zu den Bestimmungen in DE wohl mal wieder auf den neusten Stand bringen.

@Deus Yes. :) It's like Bombay/Cal/Madras syndrome. Will take a few years to get used to Puducherry though officially we do use it in writing. While talking it's still Pondy :)

According to a new report by the BBC, self-checkouts have been a failure. It's not just because they take jobs from humans; customers frequently need help to use them, and retailers say they lead to increased theft. Some stores are moving away from the technology, but a 2021 survey of 1,000 American shoppers say they prefer it. Here's the full story. What's your opinion?

https://flip.it/W1jTty

jens,
@jens@social.finkhaeuser.de avatar

@CultureDesk They used to be so rubbish that I refused to use them. Now I prefer ones with people because I want folk to keep their jobs. They're pretty ok to use now, though.

CultureDesk,
@CultureDesk@flipboard.social avatar

Reports of the death of self-checkouts may have been greatly exaggerated. Just 15 percent of poll respondents say they never use it, with 32% saying they always prefer them. Some pointed out that there are good systems (scanning your items as you walk around) and bad ones ("unexpected item in the bagging area"). Others observed you're often forced to use self-checkout because there are no human cashiers. And some like them for times when you're not feeling chatty.

Good morning and happy Friday everyone!

Let's start with our and find out what the plans are for the day today as well as for the weekend ahead.

For me, it's just the usual work stuff and then some video games with friends tonight for a bit.

Not sure what else the wife and I might do today, as we never did go shopping the other day, so might do that today, though it's pretty cold outside to be going anywhere.

I wish you luck shopping as I know how that goes. :)

@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@beardedtechguy Thank you sir. Not looking forward to the shopping, assuming we get there today. Not 100% sure yet. Maybe I'll save what little bit of sanity I do have left and put it off until another day. LOL

Einkaufsverhalten der Deutschen: Trend geht zurück zum Ladengeschäft

Auch wenn vor Weihnachten die Paketboten wieder alle Hände voll zu tun haben: Der stürmische Online-Shopping-Boom der Corona-Zeit scheint beendet - es zieht wieder etwas mehr Kunden zurück in die Läden.

I like self-checkouts because in Malaysia people don't go for them for some reason so there's hardly a queue there 😁
OK I am curious, do your fast food chains have self checkouts? Ours do.

Saw this on a Costco ad. Word of advice: DO NOT BUY laptops from this particular company.We did two years ago, and the one we have will not accept third party battery replacements (will not power up the machine with a third party battery), and the company DOES NOT sell replacement batteries. Yes, this is the same one with draconian printer cartridge restrictions.

The Verge: "HP is blocking third-party printer ink again / The company is blocking the use of non-HP ink with a ‘security’ update that’s meant to ‘protect the quality’ of customer experience." https://www.theverge.com/2023/3/11/23635168/hp-printer-update-brick-third-party-ink-dynamic-security

A grocery store called Heinen’s in Rocky River, Ohio. I thought this store looked pretty nice. Shot in May 2023.
