Hmmm, I noticed on my receipt yesterday, I bought a wheel of Brie from the deli refriderated case. The wheel had a price sticker on it for $5.25 and a sell by date. The store had placed an additional $3 off sticker because the sell by date was only 3 days away and they had dozens of these wheels. But when looking at my receipt, the item scanned form the barcode on the package for $5.99.
I wonder how my store would handle this? I just assumed the price sticker on the front was on the wrong product. Maybe I should take it in and ask.
I sorta doubt I would get it free. I had the store price match a Ham back at Easter time. They asst manager did the price match wrong, and it gave me too big of a discount. I didn't realize while in line, but i noticed while reviewing the receipt at home. It was almost $25 in my favor. I just couldn't let it go in good consience, so I stopped back by the stor in the morning on the way to work. I pointed out the mistake to the CS rep and they asked who had done the price match. Then I was charged for the mistaken discount, and I paid the amount I should have paid after price matching. They thanked me several times, and wondered aloud how many times that fella might have made the same mistake.
Anyway, I felt better eating the Ham knowing the correct price had been paid for it (which was still a great deal). I would have been surprised if they had refunded me what little I paid for their mistake.
I have caught pricing errors on meat, and they correct it, but don't give the item for free.
and i have learned to chekc hte dates on everything when I'm shopping....especially yogurt and bottled items like salad dressing and mayo. If I end up with anything out of date at home, I call the manufacturer and report that the store is allowing aged stock to remain on the shelf. You usually get a couple of coupons in the mail for calling, and you can still return the tiem to the store if you want. Kraft told me once that the item is still usable after the date, they just don't guarantee quality and freshness after that date.
anyway, I'll see what they say about the brie tomorrow.
