Article in The Age today stated that Coles and IGA are having trouble keeping their shelves stocked with basic goods.
I shop at Coles and my in my personal experience, when my favourite brand is not there, there is invariably a "You'll love Coles" substitute close by. I have seen this occur often enough to wonder whether it is a deliberate attempt to pressure customers into trying their brand. The practice was particularly rampant when Coles was facing the take over by Wesfarmers.
I think they should fess up.

Staggering. If a supermarket doesn't have an effective stock control system, how do they even stay in business? Especially when it is a matter of knowing your most popular products and keeping your best customers happy.
I wonder if the banks suffer the same problem. "Sorry, but we don't quite know how much money we have."
