Im so annoyed, I bought and item in my local shop this evening and it clearly states, " part of a multi pack NOT TO BE SOLD INDIVIDUALLY" the bloody shelf was full of them and the cashier had a cheek to go get a smilar item of different flavour to scan for the price.
For at start surely we buy multi pack because we make a small saving, and they are charging the regular price.
If you see individual items on a shelf that say that they are part of a multipack and “not to be sold separately”, this is not a breach of consumer legislation.
However, you could complain the trader to the manufacturer of the goods as the trader is not acting in the spirit of the offer made by the manufacturer.
You might have got the item cheaper! Check out Tescos for an example - often the multi packed items are actually more expensive that buying single or dual packed items.
Thanks for the messages,
I guess I just feel they are taking the mick,
I would love to see how they would react if I opened a multipack and demanded that they sold it to me as a single item.
