Ok Since #5 ended up a lot more lopsided than I thought, here's probably a better one that might spur more discussion.
Situation (directly from a real situation posted on another forum I frequent): You walk into a Gamestop store, to pick up Rock Band (full set, with all instruments, retail $160) for the 360 and Okami ($40 retail) for the Wii. You take them up to the register, and the cashier gives the total: $86. What do you do? |

If you know it's the wrong amount, then yes. When I worked at Best Buy, if a price came up on the screen that seemed suspicious, we were supposed to get a physical check of the price by going back there and checking the price on the tag. Sometimes items would ring up for a penny that were supposed to cost hundreds of dollars. We could lose our jobs if we rang up something for considerably less than it cost.
