So bad, that if I'm the only one in line, I'll make the cashier wait to start scanning my groceries until I can watch. I catch an average of 3 items saving myself about $1.50 every trip. I have only once caught an error in my favor. Last week's trip had these errors: 4 cans of Tuna - $20+ (was marked 5.40$ rather than .54), Crackers on sale for .50 off rang regular price, Fruit juice rang $1.98 rather than 1.89. Note that only one error was due to sale pricing. When Meijers first opened here and I pointed those out the cashier filled out a form to turn in to have it corrected. After a while that stopped. I asked a cashier why. She responded "Slowed us down to much we were filling out too many." The only reason I continue to shop Meijers is that the errors are everywhere, the always correct the pricing cheerfully, and they are closer than ant other store by a good 2 miles. BRu
