My experiences are limited to stores in the UK and Germany but I would think the same situation exists in most countries. In every supermarket I use in Germany I have found instances of the price shown on the shelf to be less than what they actually tried to charge me. Last December in the UK I was often charged full price for each item where there was an offer of "3 for 2" or "Buy one get one free" etc. It happened so often that I no longer believed it to be a mistake but as an attempt to defraud. On complaining I was never once given an apology but got comments like "That offer was only for last week" or "It only applies if you take all the same flavour". Even Marks and Spencers were showing offers that were not honoured at the checkout. Again no apology. Another trick was to show the price for a 400 gram pack beside 600 gram packs. The price in large clear figures with the weight in tiny almost unreadable print. Again Marks and Spencers were guilty and I insisted on seeing the manager on that one but without any real positive response. Just the comment "I'll get it changed" which probably really meant " Damn it! Somebody noticed!". I picked up the differences when I was buying just a few items and can imagine that someone with a full trolley load would not notice the discrepancies. Be careful, start checking and you might be amazed at how much you can save. Never once was I charged less than the indicated price!
