First off, ignore Mr. Rik. He's just a little internet troll that likes to stir the pot and upset people. I'm envisioning that he's a pimple-faced 32 year old nerd that still lives at home in his mother's basement pleasuring himself to David Hasselhoff pictures.
Now, on to the issue at hand. Ok, so Walmart made a boo boo; big deal. Everyone makes mistakes. It's totally unreasonable to think that the store should give you the item for free. Besides, if giving away the item for free was their policy when something was incorrectly rung up, the store would respond by jacking up prices to make up for it. Is that really what you want? (one free item now vs. higher places for everyone later) Do you think that your time is that valuable that you'd have no problem with that? Get over yourself.
It's amazing what people try to do to get free stuff.

Pricing Policy
AUTHOR: Randonx - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, June 11, 2011
What they should have done at the Customer Service desk is give you 3 dollars off whatever price was listed for the meat you purchased.
It's really not any more your fault than the cashier's that the mistake wasn't caught during the transaction, but that doesn't mean you can blame them after the fact because she couldn't fix.
[If this situation ever happens to you, ask to speak to a manager concerning Wal-Mart's pricing policies]

NO WHERE in any WM store that I go into do I ever see any type of sign that says if the product purchased is rung up at the wrong price, the customer will get it FREE! There is NOTHING FREE at Wal Mart or any other store that I use.
There IS NO RIPOFF if there is nothing that states under what conditions a product might be FREE for the customer.
REMEMBER, for every loss of $ for the store due to non-existant FREE products or products that are stolen, the losses are ALWAYS PASSED ON TO ALL THE CUSTOMERS in the form of higher prices
ROMPER HAS SPOKEN!

And "Unfairness" towards people who want to make a living, but can't with all these mean people In this country who care nothing but themslves & how many people they ruin so they can, get rich In life & live In a big house.
The people who run walmart today are nothing but power crazy, money hungry. Civil rights violators & they have bad customer service
Grow up -
Your demand for an incorrectly-scanned product to be given to you at no charge is incredibly unreasonable. Price errors happen all the time anywhere you go whether it is to you or someone else, so that's an automatic no-go. The store did the right thing by ringing the item up at the correctly price, and giving you the difference back.
I'll also scrutinize a couple of other items in the story:
The first thing that you made known was that you were handicapped; okay, understandable, but it doesn't bear any relevance to the suppose injustice at hand which, by what you're claiming, is the ringing up of a wrong price, and maybe an inconvenience of your time which, yeah I suppose if you're handicapped it can be a strain on you, but, while I have respect for the handicapped, I think some areas of the story are exaggerated as to influence a motion of sympathy from the reader.
Anyways, on to the next time:
"The 'chashier' was in such a hurry she couldn't see the bold yellow sticker on the ground meat"
Did you catch this AS she was ringing up your items? Why did you wait until AFTER the transaction to mention anything about it whereas she could've voided the item off the ticket and rerung it up at the correct price. Because, from what I'm reading, if I'm understanding correctly, you waited until AFTER the purchase, the cashier no longer had the capabilities of exchanging your items, and now required the assistance of customer service.
I don't believe that she simply shrugged her shoulders and pointed, but that she tried to explain and you simply wouldn't listen. Why do I think this?
"when we went to check out I had to ask for more chashiers the lines were horriably long."
Very authoritive, very demanding, and very unlikely of any patience being demonstrated or understanding for that matter in terms of mistakes as demonstrated by your complaint which, really, bears no evidence of a 'rip off' at all.
If you did not catch the mistake until after the transaction, then you were no better than the chashier in that you could've prevented the entire thing by POLITELY informing the cashier (Before finishing out the purchase) that she rung up the meat wrong. I am sure a void+re-ring is not beyond their register's capabilities. As I said before, because you waited until after the fact, you now had to deal with customer service, so you inconvenienced yourself in that regards.
Should the cashier have been paying more attention? Yes, but she'd be less inclined to be rushed through a transaction if, a, people were more understanding on matters of being short-staffed, and b, if she didn't have someone standing at her register who was probably crabby through the entire transaction. I've made plenty of errors myself just wanting to get someone out the door, although I work at a different store lol
Food for thought:
Be more reasonable.
They took care of your problem, no rip-off here.
Anyways....I have never seen or heard of a single scanner discrepency policy give you the item free under all conditions. Some will do something like give it to you at the shelf price and then give you an extra $3, and if the item is under $3 you get the item for free. But nice try in getting a $500 TV for free because it was scanned for $10 more.
But in your case it probably would not have applied anyways. Because these "policies" generally do not apply to packages with a price sticker on the item. They only apply between the shelf price and price it scans at the register of non-individually priced items. So if the cashier missed the price sticker on the package..it wouldn't be a "scanner" error so it would not apply.
You recommended the customer shoplift the merchandise. A couple of days ago you recommended (Rip Off Report 710130) the consumer put water in the gas tank of a rental car to offset the fuel level.
I am quite confident that recommendations of criminal acts such as shoplifting and property damage are not the intent of this web site.

The only rip off here is on the taxpayer, because good tax dollars were spent to send you to 13 years of school, and that taxpayer did not get any return on investment.
"Chashier"?? What the hell is that?
And, it's not a typo as it is in more than one place.
Learn how to at least use spell check, as nobody will ever take you serious if you write like that.
Go back to the third grade, and get off welfare.

Next time just put the ground meat under your dress. I doubt it has the security feature and even if it does I doubt they will bother looking.
You are correct to watch the prices as they are entered to make sure they don't make a mistake. Everyone should do that as a matter of course.
They corrected their mistake and gave you the difference. No ripoff.
