    Default Watch those shelf tags!

    I've run into this problem at BOTH of my local Rite Aids- they have sales for items that are free after rebate, or almost free- but the wrong items that are on sale, or are similar, but NOT on sale are marked incorrectly. For example:
    Rite aid has a FAR offer specificaly for a new line of Garnier hair products. This local Rite Aid had other products (again, similar, but NOT the right ones) marked as the sale items, but they would ring up at the wrong price AND were NOT included in the FAR deal. I brought this to the attention of the lady who was marking the items and she brushed me off~ obviously she did not care.

    Moral of the story? Read the deals, and the products included in the deals VERY carefully!
    $3.28
    EF: $20.52

    STARTING TOTAL (8-26-06):$6414
    Current Total: $6311

    Very good advice- the companies that handle the rebates don't allow for ANY margin of error.
