Store Charging Patrons $5 For ?Just Looking', To Offset Losses From Internet Shoppers

"If you're going to be asking bucketloads of questions, you've got to pay for the information," said Celiac Supplies owner, Georgina, to the Brisbane Times, who asked that her last name not be published, after her store's policy inadvertently went viral and led to Internet infamy.
