Default Re: Common Billing Errors That Can Cost You Money

Especially beware of incorrect prices at stores with higher priced items. When shopping at a home improvement store one day, we saw toilets with a display price that we knew was an excellent price, so we loaded up the toilets and went to the checkout. when the cashier scanned the toilets, the price came up $50-60 more each than the price listed at the display. We brought it to their attention and after almost 1/2 hour of finangeling, they finally gave in and gave us the display price. At that point I had to go potty, so went to the back of the store and noticed that the display price had been ripped off of the toilet display, but not the accompaning sink display. We went out to eat and wouldn't you know the guy who had been helping us at the store ended up at the same KFC so I had a chance to mention to him that he still had an incorrect price listed on his display. Anyhow we ended up with two toilets for about 1/2 the going price for that style.
