Store Charges $5 ‘Just Looking’ Fee

In the 'old days' window shopping was free - not anymore at this store!

A store in Australia has a new policy that informs their customers that they will be charged $5 just for browsing. It appears the word of this new policy is spreading too.

This policy is thought to be in place to reduce the number of people who 'price shop' for the lowest price on items. If it cost you $5 just to come in and price it before they go home and buy it online.
