Anyone have any suggestions on what action to take when a store fails
to honor the prices they have marked on items. I found some nice
glasses next to a sign stating "Glasses 4 for $.99". I picked
up 4 glasses and took them to the register, where they proceded
to charge me $.99 each for the glasses. I told them about the
sign and they stated that was for plastic glasses (there were no
plastic glasses by the sign). I replied that the sign said nothing
about plastic, just glasses. They argued with me for five minutes
until I got fed up and left everything there. Tomorrow I plan
to call the manager at the Marc's store in Southland Shopping
center of Middleburg Hts. and let them know that they have
lost a customer. But that just doesn't feel like enough. Anyone
have any suggestions as to a government agency I can complain to?
(BTW - over $2.97 difference they lost a $40 sale, I went to
Big Lots after that and spent it all over there for the same items
minus the glasses).
