My local fruit and veg store underwent a refurbishment

Before the work began I asked the owner if he was going to include shop floor scales for the customers to use.
He assured me yes.
Guess what? No customer scales. Which means that those products that are sold by weight, the customer does not know how much it will be until they get to the checkout.
Large Watermelons can weigh 20 pounds, 9 kg, which at $2 per kilo is a lot of money.
Just another way businesses force one to pay more than they can afford.
A shop floor scale would see some people not buy certain items.

So take the article (watermelon) to the register and ask them to weight it prior to accepting or rejecting it. Then let them return it to the shelves if you reject it. You might mention your suggestion of scales again once they have been through this a few times.. I generally find the easiest way to get a problem fixed is to make it someone elses problem..馃樂

@whowasthatmaskedman I might try that. See how they react
