I was out bargain hunting see link again in the morning. I hadn’t been to Bektas in Karaoğlanoğlu, so thought I would give it a try. When I got to the checkout I remembered why it is not my favourite place. I only purchased two items and instead of my 25 kurus change, the cashier handed me a tiny chew sweet! I gave it back to her and said she could have it, I wanted my 25 kurus. So, she opened her till with a ‘Cyprus shrug’ and very begrudgingly handed over my 25 kurus! So, they are still short changing!
I then went to Starling and the gentleman in front of me at the check out was not given his receipt and so asked for it. The cashier handed it to him and he checked his change and then asked for the one lira SHE had short changed him! He stood there checking his receipt and obviously discovered he had been overcharged for a bottle of wine. Good on him, they then had to sort that out for him. Thank goodness it is not only me but it really is about time that they STOP doing this to ex pats. I guess they think they get away with it with holiday makers. It’s no good looking for the bargains if you are continually short changed and overcharged for items. I gave up then and went home.
We had a seven hour power cut! Mal had itchy fingers because he couldn’t get on the computer!
