Restaurant charged BOTH a Saturday surcharge AND an Easter surcharge on the same
Saw this floating around and had to share. Someone in a Melbourne restaurant got hit with this today:
- Food subtotal: $56.70
- Easter Season surcharge: 15% ($8.51)
- Saturday Surcharge: 10% ($5.67)
- Total: $70.88
- Then another 1.3% card surcharge on top($71.80)
So Easter Saturday = pay for being a holiday AND pay for being a weekend. Separately.
Is this even legal? Feels like double-dipping.
Curious if anyone else has seen this or if there's actually any consumer protection around stacking.
