    Or more realistically the underpaid over worked employee that has to stock and retag the entire store hasn’t been able to replace that label yet.

    But sure, let’s just say they lied instead like it’s some devised plan set in motion.

      I’ve been that employee at a busy grocery store. I was supposed to be one of three people who managed the tags. Due to a lack of funds, I was always the only one. Not fun.

      Then CVS allows itself to publish misinformation by not staffing its stores sufficiently. Still their responsibility all the same.

        From what I can tell that tag is from November.

        Are you so detached from reality that you have no idea what people do in convenience stores?
        No one is “publishing misinformation”. It’s a fcking price tag.

            Let me ask you, what do you do after you take a picture of the incorrect tag?

              Nah, you’re right, they should just never be called out and we should be grateful for their business at all right? Fuck outta here

                No. But it’s also not a conspiracy.

                Edit: Apparently people here think it’s a conspiracy. Lol

          It’s a forum about shrinkflation. If the topic isn’t interesting to you, don’t click.

            I can care about shrinkflation while thinking that post is over the top and you’re trying to turn a minor store fuck up into an instituionalized scheme to mislead customers.

              These people are Karen’s, as far as all the replies have shown tonight. Completely unable to accept or understand basic minimum wage plight.

              They just want to be angry.

    This actually happens more than you think, a lot of the information on the tags are very slow to be updated the only info they really care about on the tag is the end price. It’s not just CVS it’s most places.
