Description
went to Roche Brothers at Downtown Crossing and bought bulk dried fruit and peanuts. I thought the cashier would tare the scale to account for the weight of the container, but she said there was no way for her to do so. She called a supervisor and 2 other cashiers who also said they were not aware of any procedure for taring the container, and they consider the weight of the container negligible. They do not note this anywhere in the store so if you buy something in their plastic containers you are effectively paying more for the same amount of goods as someone who buys it in a plastic bag. Furthermore, to my knowledge Whole Foods and Bfresh do tare their scales to account for container weight. Please let me know if this practice or not taring is permitted. | Store name/location: [Roche brothers at downtown crossing.] When did this happen: [08/23/2019]
