Legal Question in Consumer Law in Massachusetts

Sticker Price at Rite Aid

I was at Rite Aid recently and I saw a stick of deodorant which had two prices on it: one was $9 and the other was $4. I went to the register asking for the $4, so the cashier called up the manager, and she said she could not honor the $4 sticker because it also had the $9 sticker, but if it only had the $4 sticker she would have to honor it. Is this true? Thanks.

Yes, and no.

People make mistakes and businesses have a right to correct the errors brought to their attention.

At the same time, Mass. has a unit pricing law that requires each item to be price tagged. If you want to pursue this contact the attorney general's office.
