326- CHECK!...THOSE!...PRICES At The GROCERY STORE!.....

Please, each and every time, take the time to check over, carefully, your grocery store receipts!
a) Best to watch as they are rung up.
b) If not, pause nearby to check each item.
c) Or even at home.
d) Someone/s are in charge of changing prices in their computers...more and more prices, as I and friends are seeing, do not match the prices posted on the shelves on your printed receipt later. I personally have "caught" at least one to two wrong prices each day at a big chair you're quite familiar with, always in favor of the store.
d- Underline in red and take back to customer service to prove. If necessary, take someone in customer service back to the item price for proof. If they refuse, call for management. DON'T let the error slip by you!
e- Your consumer rights dictate that the price on the shelf is THE ONE you owe. DON'T let a clerk or manager try to palm it off as just a mistake!!!!...always, though, be POLITE. You'll succeed better, much better and quicker, because you're RIGHT, legally. By the way, a few big grocery stores have a policy of giving the item to you free if they, computer, make a mistake. ASK when it happens!
f- Know and exert your individual consumer rights...PLEASE! And use those "rain checks"....
g- IMPORTANT?...when you go to "that" big box store where your goods are placed into PLASTIC bags on those circular spinning metal bagholders, look THEN to make sure you got everything you bought!!!!...and ask for DOUBLE PLASTIC BAGS for all of those canned goods and heavy items. Ever have a single PLASTIC bag break in your car or going into your home? I know you have!
