Aldi overcharge
 
I thought my weekly shop at Aldi was rather expensive but, since I had bought more items than usual, I didn't think too much of it.

Once I got home I looked at the receipt and on it there were two Coca-Cola 12-packs - total around $8 - that weren't mine.

Maybe two of something else I bought incorrectly scanned as Coke, or maybe it was just a glitch?

My fault for not checking the receipt at the store, but please be aware.

I think if you were to take your receipt back to them and explain...they are very fair to their customers regarding returns, receipt error etc. Can't hurt to try!

Many years ago there was a grocery store in my hometown (A&P) that had an item at each register which was rung up about every 6 or 7 customers. It was usually an item that cost about a dollar---not enough for people to act on. Finally it increased to a mop that was a few dollars. Don't remember how but finally they got caught. NOT SAYING ALDI DID THIS. I'm sure it was an honest mistake.

Was the number of items on your receipt the same as the number of items you bought? Are two items that you bought not on the receipt? I hate when stuff like that happens.

I usually shop from a list and this helps me keep track if the total seems a little high. I normally spend about the same each week and can account for differences.

Take your receipt in. I am sure they will credit you.

The Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company. I remember it well. And S&H Green Stamps.

That's where my toys came from, A&P

A few of mine did as well.

I've found Aldi very easy to deal with if there is an issue - go talk with them. Same happens at Publix, at least from my experience.

Villager Joyce 02-20-2016 03:27 PM

My dishes, flatware and pots & pans all came from A&P, one item at a time.

Arctic Fox 02-20-2016 04:57 PM

Thank you all for the advice

Please don't take offense, but so did my mom's. If I went to A&P for her, I always had instructions on the piece to get.

From you, no offense taken. BTW, still using the flatware. My first microwave was given to me by my parents when I purchased my first home in 1971. It cost $800 back then and weighed a ton. It finally broke in 2014.

How about that coffee grinder in the aisle and at the checkout at A&P. Good stuff. What a difference 1000 miles makes. Aldi sounds like they are held in high regard at TV other than this snafu. Pathmark a whopper food chain just went belly up in NJ. The people who lost their jobs we feel terrible about but they priced themselves rite out of competition and poor service hurt them also.
