One of the joys of working on sundays is having to deal with Price Changes. Hanging up a ton of tags in the calm of the early morning can be fun, but the Signs on the displays often do not go up til almost 8 or 9 after the Sign gal gets there.
One morning we get a price check on "store brand" Grands Biscuits. I call the price what the tag said which was 3/2.98 (this was a while back) The checker calls me on the intercom and she asks if they are on display somewhere because they are claiming the price is 2/1.98.
I then ask how many cans they have. the answer is 6. new price in my head is 5.96, old price is 5.94
I then ask the checker, let me guess this straight, they are auguing over 2 CENTS between 6 cans?
She says "Yes, they are"
I then ask the checker if she has any change in her pocket, She says yes. I tell her to give them 2 pennies and I will pay her back. She Says OK.
The main reason I think they were bitching was because one of the other 2 stores in the greater STL area had a deal that if something rang up wrong they would get it free. but still less then half a cent a CAN for STORE BRAND PRODUCT???????
