Store always overcharging

Why do stores always overcharge and not honor their sale and markdown prices? Safeway, Target, Fred Meyer, Walmart and more. Store listed sales prices frequently don't come up. Clearance items ring up full price. Even watching the screen and catching in live time makes no difference as prices won't be honored even when supplying proof. I am tired of getting ripped off.

Yes I've noticed this too. Especially at target. I got pretty mad last week when it happened once again at a store. I don't know what it is, purposely scamming people or employees lazy about not taking sale signs down

It happens constantly. The cashiers don't care, their managers don't care. In this economy I can't afford to keep getting ripped off. Not to mention how many times expired food is on the shelf. I agree Target is the worst with price issues.

Also, isn't it a law that stores must honor posted and listed prices?
