Me too. What typically happens to me is I remember a price on
a shelf tag, but it doesn't actually apply to the item I
am purchasing for some reason (in a subset of these cases,
I could have detected this had I looked more closely at the tag).

So normally, if something rings up wrong, I go back to
the shelf to check it out more carefully before whining
about it. :-)
