Summary
North Carolina’s agriculture department is cracking down hard on discount stores—Dollar General and Family Dollar especially—for wildly inaccurate price scanners, fining them thousands of dollars when errors exceed 2%. One Family Dollar racked up over $5,000 after starting with a 12% error rate, while a Circle K hit $2,500 after a 22% error. Stores now face repeated inspections until they fix their systems—so next time you shop, double-check your receipt.
