Barcode Scan Price Errors and Scanning Code of Practice

It pays to check the dockets against the signage, and especially against their advertised specials that may or may not be reflected on their signage.

We have seen:

  • sale items with the regular price on the sign charged at the regular price;
  • sale items with the regular price on the sign charged at the sale price
  • sale prices on the sign charged at the regular price

Scan price errors for 2022 to date

  • Coles, $13.25 once off
  • Woolies, $70.73 comprising multiple times ($13-15 a go) on the same advertised product in different months
