          Years ago I was purchasing 2 Bose speakers for my sound system and the clerk only rang up one speaker.    I called it to her attention, and after we left the store my friend told me I was crazy to do that.   It was just a "gut" reaction, but when I thought about it the clerk might've been docked for the mistake which eventually probably would've been detected.   I do think it all "comes back around" in our lives, one way or another.

I would have assumed the potatoes had been on sale. I wouldn't have given it another thought.

 

Did anyone check to find out what the actual price was before the manager said to charge you the price that's in the register?

 

Maybe the cashier "froze" because she didn't want to be bothered with making any kind of price adjustment. lol

I totally agree...I also wouldn't have given it a second thought.  I figure you win some and you lose some...not really a big deal.

 

As for the clerk she was proably surprised and by pointing out her error it's creating more work for her and perhaps a mark against her.

Oh no, every time I hear someone mention Whole Foods I get this rap stuck in my head and it takes days to get it out. That's okay though, I like it!

If anyone wants a laugh, but doesn't want to click the link, just go to YouTube and type in "Whole Foods Parking Lot Music Video."

 

 

"The song features a series of self-parodying vignettes spoofing the performer's annoyance with other people in and around a Whole Foods store set in West Los Angeles." I feel his pain. Just like Trader Joe's, I think Whole Foods purposely looks for places where parking is at such a premium it's like an art form.

 

The video was made years ago but within two days of it being on YouTube it had over half a million views.

 

I like one of the replies in the comment section.

 

"I just spent $100 at Whole Foods. This better be a ****** good bag of Almonds."

 

I like Whole Foods but shop there only for things I can't get elsewhere.

I always recall people calling it "Whole Paycheck".

I shop there, but not for most of my stuff.  It pays to compare!
