What a Rip off:
What a Rip off:
I have been a regular visitor to the Algarve for over 30 years, and I hate to see the supermarkets like Intermarche rip of the tourists in July and August where all the supermarkets club together and ram up the prices. The most visible of which, is they remove all the 1 litre containers for the freshly squeezed orange juice, only leaving half litre containers for the unsuspecting tourists. This is very unfair because for those who wish to purchase a litre of orange juice, they are forced to buy 2 half litres at an inflated price. Considering the Portuguese tourist industry has been sliding over the past several years, and this year it's up to 30% down on previous years, and the over pricing in Supermarkets, pubs, and restaurants certainly is helping in a time when people are strapped for cash with increased energy bills etc.
