I only DREAM that my grocery store chain would do this. They used to years ago but obviously it became too expensive for them because so many items in the store are mispriced.

I only shop once a week and usually spend between $70 - $90. About once every other trip there is at least one item on my bill that has been mispriced either because the shelf price doesn't match the computer price or because the cashier has incorrectly identified my veggies and charged me for the wrong thing. (Don't ask about the time when my $0.69/lb bok choy was mistaken for the $3.69/lb leeks.)

I have gotten in the habit of checking my receipt before I walk out of the store but I didn't this weekend. Sure enough, I got out to the car and looked it over and the $2.88 fresh pineapple rang up at $3.88. I had ice cream and it was warm so I didn't bother to run back into the store.

Grrrrrr.
