Items priced wrong - do you argue ?
Comments (51)Very little here has price stickers on individual items. The "sticker" is on the shelf in front of the product. Of course, sometimes stockers mdse. in the wrong place on shelves. Of course, the shelf sticker says soup $1.99 and there is the 40 oz. can of soup rather than a 20 oz. can. Of course, you also cannot read the fine print to find out what exactly is $1.99 other than "SOUP" but the size, etc. is very small. If I find mdse. on a shelf in the back of that sticker and it is all the 40 oz. can, to me, it is marked wrong and if it rings up more, I will tell the checker. It's not MY fault that the store put it in the wrong place and it's not MY fault that the print is so miniscule. Often at WM when they go to check, they will give it to me at the lower price because it IS their mistake for putting it in the wrong hole. Now if there is ONE big can of soup above the $1.99 price and next to it is $2.99 price with a lot lot of those big cans, someone (a customer) just put it in the wrong place. But if it is a whole row . . . stockers should be more careful. And to me putting mdse in the wrong "hole" is the same as putting a wrong sticker on individual cans....See MoreI HATE 'See price in cart' ads
Comments (12)Snidely, not all websites are alike. Annoyance factor comes into play too. People will claim that dealing with tele-terrorists is 20 seconds of your life too, but I have far better things to do than deal with them and be annoyed by them. I'll shop elsewhere. It's really that simple. I choose to lessen annoyances in my life rather than play into their hands. Whether it be religious wackos pounding on my door when I have company, telescammers calling when I'm enjoying a meal or sleeping or playing games on a website, especially when I've never seen a price so attractive I can't resist it, I'll choose to avoid those obnoxious intruders. Others like to entertain their arrogance and that's their choice. I choose otherwise....See MoreAutomated price change notifications
Comments (3)There is/was a service called PriceZombie, that worked mostly (maybe entirely) with Amazon. The user inputted a price they wanted to spend and then received a notification when the item reached that price. I think they are in limbo working on a financial backing. At least with Amazon, prices can fluctuate quite a bit and some items are often close or at full retail retail. A service that alerts you to a discount would certainly be useful to the consumer but unfortunately I don't believe the owners of PriceZombie developed a profitable business model....See MoreAmazon’s new pilot program for Prime & Whole Foods
Comments (24)vgkg - yep, I've seen similar here. Aldi has raised their Sea Scallops twice in the last few months. They had been $9.99 for 12 oz. back in the early spring and then went up to $11.99 around May and just went up again to $13.99. Still a lot cheaper than the price you are seeing. I haven't seen snow crab for $5/lb here for over a decade. They have been in the mid teens per pound since pre-covid with an occasional sale around $10. Now I don't even bother to look at them. I'd rather have King Crab but I'm not paying what they are asking these days....See Moreterezosa / terriks
