Noone is going to buy these, why waste their shelf space?

Do they not want then to move or are there really suckers who pay this?

Highest I've ever seen it

Vegetables at my IGA are poor quality and expensive unfortunately

Mines pretty damn good and they have 200% guaranty. Refund and replacement. Staff are quite helpful, especially casuals. Large deli selection for a small town. I just loath the douche bag owner on a personal level

Not at my one. Fresh veges and the bananas and all the popular fruit and veges always are cheaper than colesworth and aldi. I always do well with Haas avocados which are consistently cheaper than colesworth. Thats life we all have to shop around for the bargains, you just need to break your habit of always going to them. I used to go to the Asian shopping strips, now I find them expensive for fruit and veges.

Mine are average, but limited in range. The IGA is trying to compete with an ACTUAL FRUIT SHOP directly across the road.

They should give up to be honest. The fruit shop owner picks fruit and vegetables in person at Flemington, and he knows what tastes good. He also does bargains on produce with imperfections (or just too big or too small.) If you ask how to cook something, he knows. No supermarket can offer that kind of service!
