Chemist Warehouse Pricing "Errors" on Prescriptions

On multiple occasions i've ordered prescriptions at chemist warehouse, the prices have been completely wrong from what I was quoted at the start (i've been overcharged by almost double at the till). This has happened with multiple items, at multiple stores.

Am I just unlucky? Or is there some type of chemist "conspiracy" going on?

Note to all: watch those prices!

  • Do you ask upfront? Are they regular medications? Different brands or generic?

    • yes

      yes - pretty regular stuff, nothing "high risk"

      Generic

  • I've been to the chemist warehouse a few times this year and on All occasions have been overcharged on at least one item per basket. Each time when I flag the overcharge they call a senior, then a manager, then I take them for a walk to the item, show them their own price ticket, then I wait 5 minutes at the checkout after walking past other customers, then I wait even more. then someone does something, then the original checkout person completes the transaction and I get credit $ back on my visa card. I loose around 10 minutes to their stuff up and get no apology. At least at woolies they give you the item free with an apology and you are good to go within a few quick minutes.

    • hmmm im glad i'm not the only one.
