UNFAIR PRICE HIKES - EXPLOITATION DURING COVID.

I buy raw peanuts to feed my garden birds. In March of this year they priced the raw peanuts at 69.99. In April they increased the price to 79.99. In May they increased the price to 89.99 and so forth. It may have increased again. On confronting the store manager he took my details and said H/O would be in contact. This was In May. To date NOTHING!!!!! He tried to blame the price increases on the supplier, so I suggested that they should consider the consumer and source another supplier.
