People living in regional Australia say it's hard to budget for the weekly shop when many small community stores don't display the prices of their goods. It's mandatory for larger supermarkets to show the cost-per-unit for grocery items but stores smaller than one-thousand square metres are exempt. Consumer advocates suggest that inflated prices of products at community stores could be mitigated with government assistance.
