Ooops is right!

Maybe it was only local, but apparently Rockler had about $600 worth of merchandise advertised in an e-mail flyer yesterday for around $6.63.

They e-mailed an "ooops" this afternoon, but I'm betting someone at the store is sweating this weekend.

No doubt someone will try to force the issue, as ridiculous as it is.

I would assume that they posted the correction in the window about the same time as they sent out the email update. That should cover them (at least in any state that I have lived in - don't know if other states allow advertisement corrections that way).

A couple of weeks ago, BestBuy sent me an email regarding an upcoming BestBuy ad that advertised a sale price of $1799 for a 50" Panasonic Plasma TV. The ad was in error. The sale price was for a 42" Panasonic Plasma TV, not the 50". They said they would NOT honor the erroneous sale price.

Hmm. Does that mean they actually meant to sell $600 worth of merchandise for $663?

mixed up the prices on 2 models of wheel barrels. When I went to pay for the better one at the lower price, they almost balked but eventually gave in. While the manager was ringing me up, the assistant manager was changing the price signs, right in front of a couple who was looking at the wheel barrel display. I left before fireworks started.

What, pray tell, is a "wheel barrel"?

Must be a wheelbarrow made out of recycled barrels.

Most flyers and catalogs that I see have some kind of disclaimer for errors and typos...

I do a web site for a party supply place in Houston and they have honored some pricing errors for the "good will" factor, but not as big a "gap" as your Rockler ad..
