Um, you do realize that it's not 'the man' trying to cheat you, right?
Every single thing that you see on sale is entered into a computer database. That's generally done by some underpaid clerk in the head office, generally on a Friday, and it's a really monotonous, crappy job. Mistakes do happen - he may just have overlooked something on the list, or entered a wrong number.
Being an asshole to the poor Service Desk lady did nothing to change the effect of what happened - a human being made a very human mistake. I'd be willing to be that you bought your shrimp on the first day of the sale (which is usually a Sunday). This means that they never had time to get it fixed at the head office. Now, most likely, the cashier and service desk people had no idea this mistake happened. More importantly, the desk clerk may not have known of CT's law regarding full refunds.
But, again, let me make sure I have this straight... they scanned wrong... they fixed the price... you still bitched? Now, again, honest mistakes happen. You really had no moral entitlement for the $9, because they did what they were supposed to, and fixed the price.
