I was at a US grocery chain today and came across some…misleading price tags. I took a couple pictures intending to post them to Lemmy before going to bed, but I don’t know which community would be appropriate for such a thing. The closest I could think of is A Boring Dystopia, but it doesn’t seem quite right there.
This is Lemmy. All the communities are for posting about corporate dishonesty!
Even c/cats?
Especially !cats.
That man’s got a pussy on his head.
🤔 was it a tag that displayed a cheap price, but it rang up more expensive?
Having worked for Walmart this sometimes happens, and the managers would usually honor the shelf tag.
In the instances of a tag supposedly being cheaper by $30+ i would tell the customer “i will call over a manager, but you’ll need to pretend to be angry or they might say no.” Which, from my experience, is usually what happened. Nice customers would get told the store can’t honor it while someone throwing a temper tantrum would save money. Ridiculous.
I started [email protected]
It hasn’t really taken off yet. Any day now, I’m certain!
Aboringdystopia maybe
Isn’t there one called LateStageCapitalism as well?
Here it is, sadly it’s on lemmygrad
Make a new one on world or any other instance. I subscribe for sure.
[email protected] there, I made one. Not sure how many people will actually use it tho
I just tried to open it to subscribe and got an error. Maybe a mod killed it? Or maybe the format for the link was not correct?
Which error did you get? Edit: nevermind, my server went down for a few hours because I got my server’s IP blocked by Hetzner. It’s resolved now.
Subscribed!
I thought so but I’m not getting a search result.
