Boycott the stores that use them, it might help them change their mind behind they become the norm.

This is Australia and I think 90% of grocery shops are either this one or the competitor

I knew it was Australia, didn't realise that there was such a monopoly. Still possible, just makes it harder. Are there stores that aren't part of any chain? They're dying out here, usually the owners have signed up to a franchise.

It's unlikely to happen anyway, but there should be a way that we can universally stop greed.
