This is a Canadian grocery chain called Loblaws, yes the very same Loblaws who had to pay out for price fixing on bread recently. The same who increased their profits to record levels this year and the same who replaced most of their checkouts with self checkout machines. You'll excuse me for not worrying about their margins while they hide fees on pick-up shoppers and try to market price transparency as a perk of membership.

Price transparency should be included for everyone.
