please check your receipt as last week I was charged for two bottles of cava when I only bought one, I didn’t realize until I got home, I have read a lot about this and I’m normally aware but let my guard down this time.

That's a shame. We do our weekly shop in Consum Benijofar and never had a problem.....

Not just there, it happens everywhere. Bought a pair of Sketchers at the sports shop in Habaneras. Should have been 63 euros but on offer at 47. I said to my friend, watch this, they'll try to charge me full price.....and they tried. Stood for ages while they 'sorted it out' it happens all the time, in any shop, especially on 'special offers'

I think you missed the supposed wit there. It's Doña Pepa and the supermarket is Consum.
I also think it would just down from Quesada although it is a part of Ciudad Quesada.
And obviously an error. Perhaps the person at the till put it through twice by mistake (I've done that at the self service ones when it looks like it hasn't registered although the software is supposed to stop that) as I doubt they'll make anything out of it. The shop would profit, not the till person.

We went to Leroy Merlin last Monday. There were "throws" on sale at 4 euros instead of 7.95 and we bought three. Got to the till and, sure enough, it rang up as 7.95. When we queried it, the guy on the till said, in English, "only certain colours". We said that the sign said "todos colores". He got a bit miffed, looked at the queue behind us and got on on the phone. After some time the price went down to 4 euros, as it should have been. Seems like it's everywhere.

Marcliff ok I spelt it wrong so what, I holiday there not live there so understably don’t know the spelling of some areas etc, I don’t care if it’s the shop that profits and not the person, I don’t like being ripped off.
