Loblaws introduces new “Bread Price-Fixing Settlement” fee to all customers

BRAMPTON, ON – Following that will settle a class-action price fixing suit for $500 million, the company has announced that all products sold in their stores will now carry a Bread Settlement fee.

The new fee will amount to a 10% surcharge on every item, product, or weird Big Bang Theory-themed Christmas cookie tray that Canadians purchase at Loblaws stores.

“We at Loblaws have been humbled by this class action lawsuit,” explained Loblaw president and spokes-son, Jr. “I should add that by ‘humbled’, I am in no way accepting legal guilt for any bread price fixing that may or may not have occurred, allegedly.”

Weston continued, “The reason we’ve instituted our new Bread Price-Fixing Settlement fee is because us grocery monoliths don’t like being held to account in court, not even a little bit, and Canadians need to understand that any attempt to do so will be visited back on them a hundred fold.”

“Oh, and Presidents Choice Decadent Chocolate Chunk Cookies are on sale this week for only $4.00 a bag, $4.40 after our newly-applied fee. Fuck you, Canadians,” Weston added, before being whisked away in his executive hot air balloon.

In addition to Loblaws locations, the Bread Price-Fixing Settlement fee will apply to all products sold in the Loblaws-owned No Frills, Wholesale Club, Maxi & Cie, Real Canadian Superstore, Atlantic Superstore, Save-On Foods, Zehrs, Provigo, Fortinos, Valu-Mart, and of course all Shoppers Drug Mart locations.

The Bread Price-Fixing Settlement fee will also be doubled on all Loblaws bread products.
