    to be fair to the OP she has a bit of a point.

    Trading standards can come down on any retailer like a ton of bricks for repricing items the way asda has, it's all to do with false advertising.

    Every shop I've ever worked in (independent and national chains) have made it very clear that when a item goes UP in price ALL reference to the lower price needs to be totally removed before the higher price is applied. Yes there is nothing to stop shops raising the price but they can't just slap a sticker over the lower price.

    yes same was true when I worked in a shop 20 years ago - we were not allowed to apply higher price tickets on products over the top of lower price ones - we had to stand and peel laels then apply new tickets.

    I would imagine that the process of replacing rather than sticking over prices on items is more to do with stores not wanting their price hikes looking so obvious rather than anything to do with the legality of the practice.
