Most of us never question the prices in the grocery store but let me share why you should

Went grocery shopping several times over the last weeks

Included was a Lowes trip

Used regular checkout and self checkout

At every checkout I had instances where the price listed on the product was not the price the price I was being charged

It was never lower always higher

The checkout monitors when I pointed it out were not happy with me

Almost like a screw you attitude

So if you think the government is screwing you wake up as many businesses are defrauding

Watch the servers at restaurants as they are playing games with tips

No not everyone is dishonest but a hell of a lot are and the business community is OK with it based on what I have experienced

Lol major corporations are absolutely screwing over most people but its not the checkout people at wal mart who make minimum wage and the waitresses in your restaurant doing it.

Titles thread “big business cheating the little man” then proceeds to blame the little man lmao

The last time I was in Venezuela (prob 2002ish)the Mercado had digital read outs for pricing under each product. Same in ecuador. That way they(Venezuela)could raise prices anytime due to their out if control inflation. Chavez eventually made that technology illegal. And then arrested store owners who were "gouging" people.
