I recall Coles and Woollies post a net profit of around 3%.
These bags will cost them around 5 cents to buy, sell for 13.6 cents ex gst, which will mean at a profit margin of some 66%, will make them one of the most profitable item they sell, if not the most.
Go figure! Who on earth would have thought the bag the items go into would be a best profit seller.
Of cause with dead mice, roaches, even a dirty nappy being found I shoppers used bags, its only a matter of time before someone get crook, or even dies.
You see bacteria, especially listeria, requires warmth and moisture to multiply, and can lay dormant in dried matter on the bag. Once moister is reintroduced who knows what could happen.
Only time will tell, but I sure hope we don't find out the hard way.
Meanwhile, the grubs of society, they being the ones who litter freely and disrespectfully now, will continue to litter, so all we are doing is punishing those who are already responsible citizens. Sound familiar!
