This sign was on the box, not just on the box but printed on the box. Sitting up front by the registers. I had to argue with not one but 3 different people to get a cheap trimmer bought for my wife at the price listed.

Was that trimmer supposed to be in that aisle box?
Anyone in the store could have dropped it off there....

From that pic it looks to be the right one.

Yes it is the correct trimmer. The issue is the manager said "someone" forgot to remove the tag. Can't remove a tag that is printed right on the display box. If it is the incorrect price they should remove the display with the lower price and put the item back on the shelf with the original price.

They have several Ryobi one+ trimmers at different price points. That one for $49.88 looks to be the one normally for sale for $69. They have a few others, one that sells for $119.

Maybe they got confused...it happens. If that's all you have to worry about today, consider yourself lucky!!

If you got the trimmer for the 49.88, then it's all good. of course, the top of the box says 69.97, so maybe someone recycled the box....
Unless the 69.97 trimmer and 79.97 leaf blower prices are ALSO printed on the box, in which case, someone in China is gonna be in trouble!

^^^THIS!

The $69 and $79 tags are add-ons. Someone just reused a box from a different promotion and didn't think about that $49 printed price.

Sure they can read, they just don't care.

One of our local stores sports a made in store sign that reads something like "Your headquarters for tool's"

...

It's hanging from the ceiling, too.
