A&P Policy

Last week my husband went to A&P to buy some ground beef for a recipe he was making. The circular said it was on sale for $1.99 per pound, but when he got to the register, it rang up as $2.99 per pound. Confused, he spoke to the cashier who called over the manager. Apparently the circular price was correct but someone in the store had neglected to mark the new price on the product. The best part? They gave it to him for free!
The next day, he realized that he needed more ground beef, so he went back and had the same experience a second time. When the manager came over he asked about the procedures, and found out that A&P has a policy that states that they'll give you any product marked incorrectly, for free, if it's under $10.00.
So...we got $19.o0 of ground beef for free!!! Love those little-known store policies!
