Michigan should keep the item pricing law. I hope they do. Business are still violating the act. The spirit of the act was to protect the consumer from incorrect computer scanning equipment. I just returned from Meijer and they still will not pay the bounty unless the item has a price tag on it.  The […]

I was at Wal-Mart the other day. I purchased 9 items, 5 of the 9 rang up for more than the actual price! 3 of the items had a sign listing them at 90% off, they were marked $8.00 but rang up for $2.00. The cashier gave me the overcharged amount. I also had 2 […]

Here is my problem. While on vacation this week, my husband and stopped at the Battle Creek Tractor Supply store on 6360 B. Drive North. We often stop at Tractor Supply stores while on vacation, since we often find different clearance items that our home store does not carry. My husband came across the clearance […]

The entire night I have been going through pages of Michigan Retail Law, trying to figure out what in the heck I am supposed to know about how things scan in the store. I work at Meijer, and would appreciate that my name and email aren’t included in this publicly. But, I can assure you, […]

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 […]

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 […]

Annette do you have room for another one? My wife and I went to an Art Supply store in Madison Heights Michigan an hour ago. She was charged $1.06 more for a picture frame than the price marked on the bin of picture frames. I say this to make the distinction that the frame she […]

I have experienced this several times now with Meijers. I have filed a written complaint with the Michigan State Attorney Generals office previously, which I am doing again. I will also be contacting Represenatives in the Michigan Legislature, since they develop the legislation to produce these rules and regulations. I would think that new legislation […]

My disagreement is with Meijers in Michigan. On November 18 while shopping for vitamins I decided to purchase the much higher priced ones then I would have because the sign in front of them and other vitamins clearly said buy one get the second free. With the name of the vitamins clearly stated on the […]

Browsing the new Meijer ad in the Sunday paper, I noticed Scott Toilet Tissue and another brand our household likes were both on sale for “½ price.” That’s a great buy! So Sunday afternoon, I make a trip there especially for that, but picking up a few other things I needed at the same time. […]

Just last night, I was shopping at Target in Shelby township, MI and I purchased a 2-pack of hooded baby towels with washcloths. When I went up to the check out, they rang up $10.99 but the tag on the shelf said $4.99. The cashier said that I would need to go to the Customer […]

I was shopping at Krogers and bought 3 packages of watermelon each individually marked and they all rang up wrong. They said I could only get the scanning law on one of the items not all 3 is this correct? Thank you, Theresa

Michigan Store clerk refunded entire purchase price, instead of bounty… I recently purchased a craft item that was ticketed at $3.99. After leaving the store on my way to my car, I noticed that the sales receipt showed I was charged $4.99. So, I went back into the craft store and requested my refunded difference […]

Customer service with a smile used to be easy. Today it’s hard to tell who has it rougher, customers who are being ripped off or customer service workers who are being scammed on a daily basis. One can hardly blame some courtesy desk workers for being fed up. Here is one courtesy desk clerks story… […]
