#BestOfTheWeek: From paying R495 for a pie to the possible return of the Chocolate Log
Updated | By East Coast Radio
We take a look at Carol Ofori's best pieces from the week...
We started off the week with a funny but real story of a Pick n Pay customer paying R495 for a steak and kidney pie. Of course it was a mistake and was rectified, but it got people talking about their experiences.
And in true spirit we saw you guys come to the party with sharing your experiences with us. It is more common than we thought it would be, many people have paid more or less for a product, and most of the time, they didn't return when it was less...

Then we saw a humble attempt by Chocolate Log fans in bringing back their favourite. Which hasn't seemed to budge the people at Nestlé, who stand firm with their point of view in creating more innovative products.
We are not sure about their contention in becoming more healthier, because as a brand, do we really look at Nestlé as a healthy brand?
