Куриные яйца в магазине

The photographs show that in the store "Maxima," category A eggs "Zemnieku," laid in a henhouse, in a pack of 10 cost 1.65 euros. The price tag indicates a previous price of 2.69 euros. In turn, the visible price tag at "Rimi" for "Zemnieku" eggs in a pack of 10 shows a 40% discount — the price has been reduced from 3.97 euros to 2.39 euros. This difference has raised questions: how can a product with a smaller or similar discount in one store be cheaper than in another store with a larger percentage discount? In the comments, people quickly began discussing not only these specific eggs but also the discount policies of supermarkets in general. Some commentators point out that in such cases, it is more important to look at the final price rather than the large label "-40%". "By the way, where is the highest price applied in the last 30 days, as required by the consumer protection law?" asks one commentator. Another adds that in such situations, the buyer may feel confused: "So, there is a small 'fail' in this law because it is clear that consumers are being misled." Some buyers believe that supermarket promotions have become increasingly difficult to understand lately. "Discount or markup?" one commentator jokes. Another adds: "We haven't shopped at Rimi like that for a long time, for example, for a week. Only specific items if there is a good promotion." The discussion also raises the question of whether the identical product is indeed depicted in both photographs. One commentator points out that the box is poorly visible in the photo, and the size of the eggs may differ. To this, the author of the post replies that these eggs come in only one size.
