Watch your receipts!!!

In Ontario, the policy is: if the item scans at a higher price than the shelf tag or advertized price, you get that item at no cost--up to $10. If you have more than one, only one is 'free' but you get the others at the proper cost. Of course it doesn't matter where you picked up the item, the UPC has to match the shelf UPC. This is the biggest frustration for us (I work in retail) because no matter how much time we spend tidying, people tend to take an item off the shelf and just put it back anywhere.
I make a point of checking my receipt before I leave the store. Hate to have to haul the groceries back into the store to correct a mistake.

It WAS Safeway -- (yes, I know I said I wasn't going to say the name).....I gave the guy my phone # and he said he input it -- but he hadn't. I know I can scan a card, but I didn't have my card....and when I tried to put the # in myself, it wouldn't take it -- so HE was supposed to have input it! I'm sure it was an honest mistake....but as I said -- I have other places to spend my money....

I always double check everything that scans on their screens and what my receipt says before I leave, I've got very good at catching mistakes that don't ring up on the screen properly. One of our local stores will actually give you the item for free if they screw up on the checkout. Especially in clothing stores too on those we will do an additional mark down of 25% at the checkout, most of the time it doesn't do it and they have to enter it in on the register.

yeah, not too long ago I went to the fabric shop & bought a bunch of materials, mostly .5 yard, a yard etc.. The total was $ 70.00, I went "WHAT?" As it turned out, on the cutting ticket, she recorded 5 yards instead of .5 of one of the pieces. Whew!
