My husband and I were shopping at Wal-Mart for a short period of time.  We found that the isles are so narrow that 2 shopping carts can barely fit through an isle.  People are so into your personal space that we actually made a joke that if we are somewhere else and someone gets in [...]

I have a complaint about Wal-Mart in Sacramento, CA on Antelope Road. August 13, 2009 — I was at the automatic check out station, checking my articles out. I swiped my card in the machine, entered my pin number, and it came up asking if I wanted money back. I started to hit “NO” when [...]

This email exchange says it all: I ordered a movie set for an upcoming viewing party in a week. The item was in stock. I ordered on Sunday night, 8/9/09, received an email on 8/10/09 that the order had shipped and that I’d be receiving it on 8/11 or 8/12. I tracked the order and [...]

Below you will find a chronicle of one senior citizens battle with Doubleday Large Print. Doubleday Large Print made it nearly impossible to be removed from their mailing list and cancel her subscription of automatic deliveries. It wasn’t until we located their attorney that we were finally able to resolve this situation satisfactorily. Cancellation Not [...]

Hi Annette, I feel like a victim of this scanning law problem as well. I went to Rite-Aid to buy a few items and try to find a cheaper brand of face powder than what I normally buy from the very high-end stores (my husband has been laid off since October and I cannot in [...]

I have decided the Wal-mart is just not the store the founder created. I have read some of the complaints and I agree. If Sam were still alive this would not happen. But since he is gone a new Wal-mart has been born. One complaint that I did not see was the door greeter. It [...]

My E-Machine computer turned out to be a big lemon. My complaint is that it has taken over a month of phone calls.

With four children 9 and under, I feel that the best deals for groceries and non-food items are at Wal-Mart, not to mention one stop shopping with limited time. I have tried to not go there and shop at Publix or Kroger but the grocery bill by itself is outrageous. Unfortunately, I have really had [...]

I was browsing for a address to the Wal-Mart Headquarters address so I can mail a complaint letter to them when I came across Off the Shelf (now Retail Bandit). I did not realize how many unhappy Wal-Mart consumers there are and you can add me to the list. I purchased an 18ft x 4ft Sun [...]

I live in Texas. Many times the price listed on the shelf for an item is not the price at check out. In Texas we have a Deceptive Trade Practice law that protects consumers. The advertised price IS what the store must charge otherwise they are subject to being sued for three times the amount [...]

I have an ongoing problem with Meijers pricing problems! Seems like the problems are getting worse, but enforcement is non-existent. Just last week I purchased gourmet coffee for $6.99 a pound, listed as buy one, get one free. When the cashier scanned the item, the charge was $7.99 a pound. I caught the mistake and [...]

I recently decided to go through a couple of my receipts before I threw them away. I know I waited a long time, but I will for now on check them before I leave the store. I went to the Rayville, Louisiana Wal-mart, the day before Christmas and bought a large variety of items; Christmas presents, [...]

Goodness gracious, Glad to read your Off The Shelf and glad to share a concern about one retailer, Abercrombie and Fitch. I personally find this store so ridiculous that I can hardly stand up for people who shop there. However, most of the customers are unsuspecting young people, who want so badly to look like [...]

Does the scanner law go far enough? I am diligent about checking my receipts and I have to tell you, it’s the rare occasion that I shop at a major grocery or department store and not find a mistake on my receipt. To be honest, sometimes the mistakes are in my favor, but not nearly [...]
