IN a move to protect shoppers from being misled, the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) has issued a set of guidelines to stamp out fake discounts and free offers as well as add-on fees in advertisements by businesses.
Errant retailers and other suppliers of goods and services engaging in deceptive price practices have up to two months to clean up their act, before the guidelines kick in on Nov 1.
