[Chat] Watch the register at Giant

[John Spurrier]

There are two possible scenarios that would explain items coming through the 
checkout at prices that are different than what the consumer expected. Both 
involve human error.

Sometimes the party responsible for changing prices each week either enters 
the wrong price or
forgets to make the change. Other times the label on the shelf still 
reflects the sale price, when the
registers have already been changed back  to the regular price.

I seriously doubt that there is some sort of conspiracy here. Gaining a 
reputation for cheating customers would be the death of most retail 
businesses. It certainly is not in Giant's best interest
to overcharge customers.

Steve makes a very good point. We need to pay attention to make sure things 
come through at
the right price. As the child of a father who grew up during the depression, 
this is just common sense.
