Possible false advertising or miss leading the consumer

Two weeks ago I submitted a complaint to Pick n Pay customer services and to date I have not received a response.

Two weeks ago Pick n Pay advertised their brand of Extra Virgin Olive Oil @ 2 for R 170.00 , I visited Pick n Pay Sumerfields & Pick n Pay on Republic on Thursday & Friday before the special expired on that coming Sunday and both stores had no stock, being a pensioner & due to the price of petrol I gave up the search.

On Monday I needed to pick up my medication from Dis chem and to my surprise when I pop into Pick n Pay on Republic to buy bread their shelves were packed with the Pick n Pay brand extra virgin olive oil and advertised @ R 119 per bottle ( 09:15). I understand that we are human and occasional make mistakes so why does Pick n Pay not rather apologize to clients for advertising an incorrect price. This is not the first time that Pick n Pay have advertised specials and when you get there the shelves are empty, return the day after the special and shelves are fully stocked.

A very disappointing and frustrated pensioner
