Cant speak for Australia, but in the US price increases are a far percentage above baseline inflation. It is profit-driven and greedy behavior, fleecing an already struggling population. So yeah, im not gonna bat an eye at someone taking a candy bar.
Australia has an ongoing housing crisis, increasing inflation above the RBA target, and a very normal dislike of the two main supermarket chains for all kinds of shenanigans.

Of course we can understand why. Kmart Australia Limited is trying to protect their own economic interests in order to optimise profit. Similarly, many visitors are protecting their own economic interests by spending less money, including illegal methods.
Naturally, I care about the economic interests of regular Australians over the economic interests of the major shareholders of the Wesfarmers conglomerate.

Kmart deserves whatever shrinkage may occur to them, for their bullshit decision to put checkouts in the middle of the fucking store. JB Hifi too.
