Subject: products behind wrong price stickers at stores - on purpose?
   Today I bought a couple of items at the grocery store - mussels in
garlic and wine sauce, and a package of crab rangoons.  Both had marked
down price stickers that said $2.99 in front of the rows of products.

   However, after I paid, instead of the $5.98 total I was expecting, I
ended up getting back only 2c in change from a 10 spot.

   I complained, saying that both items had been priced $2.99, but she
told me I'd have to take it up with customer service.  I saw a long line
there, and since I was holding our 8 month old, and also had our 5 & 6
year olds along, I decided to simply walk back and double check the labels.

   Well, it turn out that once again, they put a whole pile of a
different product behind another price sticker.  The price is really
large, but the description is small, so I didn't notice it.

   If they do this sort of thing a lot, it could give them higher
products.  I wonder if they do this on purpose?
