Well they dont put prices at all on the items. its on the shelf.In this case further looking into it reveals that the 'home office' sets the prices and the stock people are supposed to 'accept'' the new prices and print the labels and place them on the rack. However this system doesnt allow an employee to puta piece of paper or whatnot ove rthe price with the correct price.
Id shop elsewhere if I had that option , but there arent any more places withn 45 miles..we had a k mart but it went out 6 months after walmart came to town.

Question: Do they have item pricing where you live? Here in Michigan almost all merchandise in stores was required to have a price sticker on every can, package, etc until the a**hole governer here repealed the item pricing law saying doing that would lower prices for the merchandise and permit stores to assign more employees for customer service. I for one was bitterly opposed to the change because when scanners overcharged me 95% of the time they were in favor of the store. Used to be if a scanner charged you $1.05 for an item with a $1.00 price sticker you could get a refund of the 5 cent overcharge PLUS 10 times the overcharge up to a maximum meaning a 55 cent refund. And now with no price stickers on anything, how can you tell when you are being overcharged? Prices have not gone down anywhere, and there are no more employees to staff the stores than there were before. The only reason the governor here pushed for ending item pricing was to give his business owning cronies another way to fatten their bottom line.
I am sure pricing errors happen EVERYWHERE and EVERYDAY and EVERYTIME the customer gets s****ed over big time.
