There's no law about it in California, but a lot of the grocery and other
stores will multiply the difference by 'X' amount or give you the first
item scanned wrong for free, while correcting any other discrepancies.

I like this idea, because if you remember how much each item is,
especially at the grocery stores, you can get many free products.  And
when they don't correct the problem, you show up the next day and purchase
the same item, and get it for free again.  And again, and again... Call me
whatever, but if a store *consistently* charges you the wrong price,
then they should be considered corrupt.   I doubt you shop at the
same stores I do, so don't accuse me of raising your grocery bill.
If you shopped like me, then you couldn't complain anyway.  Yes, I've
been flamed for this before.  The money I have saved, has unfortunatly
been paid in part by other unsuspecting customers who have been overcharged
by the same store.  Now if we all did this, the store would go out of 
business or be honest and more careful in their pricing.
