Why charge extra prices without changing label
December 11, 2009 00:00:00
THE other day I went to a pharmacy to buy a 114 ml bottle of Milk of Magnesia produced by Acme. The price printed on the bottle is Tk. 13.14, and I had purchased it for that price just a week ago. Now the pharmacy demanded Tk. 30.00 for it! However, I went to a couple of pharmacies to double-check and all of them said the pharmaceutical company had increased the price without changing the label. What type of trading is this?
