“Living WageSurcharge - Is this legal?”

Amy D.
12/20/16

LIVING WAGE 2% SURCHARGE AT RETAILER IN CHICAGO... NO KIDDING, CHECK YOUR RECEIPT! IS THIS EVEN LEGAL? I've been upset and bothered for a week about this... I think retailers are saying to their consumer "you voted for a minimum wage hike... so you pay for it." Or it is a sneaky way for the retailer to avoid paying taxes on income/increased revenue of 2%. Do they pay payroll tax on 2%? I doubt it. Deceptive indeed. It feels like a forced gratuity and that IS ILLEGAL. I saw this for the first time last week and was furious. Especially since NOT ONE employee acknowledged me while I was shopping. I refused to pay and asked for the management who immediately refunded my money. Although it was only $1.20. It's the point of... you pay your employee... I already pay enough. And instead of pissing off your customer over such a small amount- just raise your price by 2% -that I would have never noticed if you put it in as a price increase... you look like a jerk... bad Public Relations silly retailers - bad PR indeed.

If you are trying to sell your items on Crossroads Trading through their mail-by-bag program, it is not the same as bringing the items to the stores. The mail by bag accepts less donations, probably b/c they get so much donations, so they choose less items to buy from you.
