Having two levels of #pricing in #supermarkets is really starting to get up my nose. Dark #chocolate cost me 30p a bar more in #Lidl as I don't have the #app. There are so many things we're expected to use a #smartphone for (#electric #charging, #parking, #groceries) and all the while every tiny detail about you is being #harvested. Nearly all #grocers seem to have #cameras everywhere (I know #theft is a big issue). It just seems #privacy is a thing of the #past.
