HF are notorious for this. Never makes sense. Then the staff accuse you of putting premium produce in the discounted bags.

lol, I’ve seen it in Harris farms lots, but never had staff accuse of anything. I actually like that if something is on special, you don’t have to buy multiple hat you might not use.
However, I’ve never checked enough to know what the original price was.
So you save money by getting them separately
There is no < 5c, so no. Technically the .99 should be illegal as it's impossible, and they're basically stealing 1c.
What are you talking about.
It is absolutely not illegal to charge 99 cents for something. It's even possible to pay exactly 99 cents if you.use a digital method.
and they're basically stealing 1c.
If you buy 3 x 99 cent items you steal 2 cents from the poor starving shopowners.
So make sure you stick it to the man by buying more! That'll teach them!
You could just ask them to put through all 3 as separate transactions. Then stiff HF the card surcharges
You can use a bank card to pay 99c
