These days, we have SKUs, scanners, and pictures of hamburgers replacing prices of hamburgers on cash registers so no one has to actually enter cost or calculate change. It's efficient, and it mostly works.
Except, apparently, at HD dealerships. I've recently had overcharges varying from $9 all the way up to $128--and I'm talking about SKU'd and CLEARLY PRICED merchandise. With all of these credits to my account, my bank is beginning to wonder if I'm on the HD payroll.
I don't know if they're assuming that the customer can't add or notice a transposed number, but this I do know--from now on, I'll be scrutinizing my receipts like an old lady at a Kroger check out line.
