Avocados are so expensive that people are trying out some inventive ways of getting free ones; Last week, a customer posted a photo to Woolworths’ Facebook page claiming that the avocados she had purchased at a Double Bay store were rotten but it Turns out the woman had nicked the photo from another customer’s complaint back in 2014.

The lady posted to Woolworths’ page complaining that her avocados were bruised and that staffers judged her fashion sense: “I purchased these avocados from your store at double bay yesterday, upon making a sandwich today i came to find these avocados are rotten!

“On top of that one of your employees gave me the biggest dirty look as i was self servicing, making a comment about my crocs, since when is it a crime to wear crocs??? this is Australia god dammit. From now on im shopping at aldi!!!!!”
