Always Check Prices

Whenever I go shopping, I Always Check Prices before paying for an item.

Just the other day, while purchasing a pullover, the price had been reduced which although was not marked as reduced had a price tag that was over 50% off. At the checkout I noticed it came up at the full price.

I mentioned the price as it was less on the label then the checkout was showing and without being told that was the price of the item, the item got sold at the reduced price.

Lots of people would probably not ask for the item to be reduced and paid the full amount. It is something I would do all the time, as I know stores do reduce items and have special offers.

Maybe an end of the line and only a few remaining, so the manager reduces the price, to clear the remainder of the stock.

Not the first time where a store sells an item at a different price at the checkout and the ticket item has been reduced, either on the shelf or on the label.

I have had the same experience too. :)

In contract law, that is known as "invitation to treat". A lot of people think that if an item is marked at a certain price, then the store is bound by contract to sell it at that price. They think that the marked price constitutes the offer.

Not true!

It is merely an "invitation to treat", or, an invitation to negotiate. The marked price is not an offer. When you take the item to the register, that's the point at which it becomes an offer. When the item gets scanned (or cash is received), that's the point of acceptance.
