Man, that stuff grinds my gears...
Places need to have a consistency specialist to insure the advertised price is the amount that rings up, that shiz is insanely frustrating. Today, went to WM to buy mulch for new trees in the yard, great excuse to do chores for the woman and spy on new Sat morning toy selections, but alas, only mulch. Lug a few 40lb bags from the home & garden all the way back into the store and wait in line with these monsters. Clearly, clearly priced at $3.98. Only freakin' thing on the pallet. Rings up $8 each. Gotta be f'in kidding me. It's an insane walk back, they are heavy as shiz, and there is a long Saturday morning line behind me. So my $12-$16 pre-trip estimated purchase comes to $32. And no toys. What the f, Walmart. You suck.

If the price did not agree with you, I would've just left it there. They got workers let somebody else take it back.

Are the individual bags tagged $3.98? I don't know what the law is in MD but in MI if it's tagged wrong and you're overcharged, they have to give you the difference PLUS up to $5 for "compensation." I ended up getting a DCU Robotman (where my screen name comes from) for about $7 because of this, the next week I got a Destro for about $1 (although in another week with clearance prices running wild that will no longer be a feat! haha)

yes. Walmart + Saturday morning = bad Saturday afternoon.
Unfortunately, WM on a Sat morning is a necessary evil to do the chores required on a Sat afternoon. boo hoo.

You should have had them do a price check.

when the price is wrong...i demand 2 things...a price adjustment and/or manager...the walmarts here impower the cashiers to do minor price adjustments...i believe it's either 2 or 4 dollars and thats without any type of approval...if they dont offer they either cant or they feel like screwing you...and if they feel like screwing with me...i feel like wrecking their day...i have them find a front end manager i make a verbal complaint regarding the cashier's service (not if they're nice mind you just the ones that have the "EF YOU" attitude) and have them do a price check and i go with them to do it (the cashier suspends my transaction and continues ringing people up) the reason i go with them is from personal experience of me catching them changing the price on the shelf to avoid doing a price adjustment (an at st for 11 dollars...who wouldnt want 2 of those right? they only gave me one but still...11 bucks)
anyway i always do it on principal...if you cant manage to have your store manager expect your assistant store managers expect your department managers expect your department supervisors expect your department leads to check the work of the 16 year old part timer...then you will pay for their mistake. |

I remember about early last year in March. I was at a Wal-Mart, saw all the joes 25th/M.E. they had left. Saw a python trooper for 5.99. Then I went to where the pegs were it read 6.98. I took it to register and it rang 6.98, I told clerk get the manager. He looked at infamous WM green almost clearence tag on bubble. He told me he was sorry and did not get the tag off so he told me I can have it for the price marked on tag. But yeah I rarely go to WM anymore unless I.....really......need......to.
