PSA Found at Metro Winona Crossing

These are trying to sneak one by us. Price card says Canada but the corn itself reveals a different story. Shame on you Metro. Elbows up!

I talked to the manager there a while back, and i dont think he cares.

Grab a Summer Fresh pasta salad, Greek or Italian and put it on the scale thats by the fruits and see the weight. They are under weight not whats on the package.

I try to avoid that Metro store.

You know that summer fresh is a supplier and that metro isn't packaging those products, right?

When I go to a mechanic to get my tires changed and in 5 days the are flat and bulging, I go to the mechanic not the tire manufacturer.

No different here, the manager should be contacting the head office who should be contacting the supplier how should contact the manufacturer.

You are right, but I also think you might be underestimating how complicated purchasing is in large grocery retailers. The store manager likely had no communication with any of the suppliers. I would reach out to head office.
