A little bird told us that Walmart’s products don’t ring up for the same price they are listed as on the shelves, so we went and tested one of their stores.

We took 50 products and wrote down their shelf price. Then we scanned the item at the “check your price” scanners located at the ends of various aisles.

49 out of the 50 were correct, as seen in the list inside. Goldfish Colors scanned for two cents in the customer’s favor.

Not terribly exciting, but even if we had seen a number of items scanning incorrectly, we would have to repeat the test at other Walmarts to draw any conclusions. — BEN POPKEN
