    Does anyone here know why I would have been paid at "Ord 1.22" (about 20c more an hour) for a shift I did on saturday?

    We get that too, like with all the Masterchef stuff that started the other week. But I will tell you, people are noticing the fall in budgets, I've had a few comments from customers that they've started to prefer shopping over on our side.

    With express item counts, do you mind if it's say a larger number of small items like 20 kiwi fruits or something like that plus some other items? I guess it's not so bad for us because we still have a quantity button :P
