22^t*Si2SJiBlJi£B*2£5^L^^2£ll21^™£22lI£22-i^li21i2Liii22i Food Supermarket shopper By Martin Stoane Dear Martin: Several months ago, I visited a local supermarket and noticed that all the bottles of Canadian Mist were priced at $5.99. It seemed like a good buy, and I decided to purchase two bottles. When the cashier looked at the prices, she told me that there had been a pricing mistake and I would have to pay 19.99 for each bottle. I asked to speak to the manager, and told the manager that 1 thought I should be allowed to purchase the Canadian Mist at the price that was marked. He backed up the cashier. Were they right? Lois Reed, Kansas City, Mo. Dear Lots: If a store mistakenly puts a low price on an item, and it is caught at the checkout counter (pri­ or to your paying for the item), the store usually has the right to ask you to pay the correct price. Supermarkets recognize that their pricing mistakes may result in some inconvenience or even embar­ rassment to customers, so many stores adopt a policy that gives the product to the customer at the marked price if that price is reason­ ably clone to the correct price. But don't expect a supermarket to offer this concession if the price that was marked is so low that a reasonable person should have rec­ ognized that a mistake has been made. THE SMART SHOPPER AWARD goes to Ellen Seymour of Hershey, Pa.: "A nearby store had a special on Oral-B toothbrushes on sale at three for 93.29.1 had a coupon for $1 off on the purchase of three tooth­ brushes, and the store was offering double coupons, so my cost was only $1.29. But my savings weren't over. I found a current Oral-B $2 refund offer, which after 22 cents postage, will give me three free toothbrushes and a profit of 49 cents!"
