Requiring retail grocery stores and grocery departments of other stores to display clearly readable prices for food

With limited exceptions, this law requires retail grocery stores and grocery departments within general retail merchandise stores or liquor stores to display clearly readable prices for food and other commodities offered for sale. The requirements specify labeling by shelf tag or package label, deepening on whether the store uses an automatic checkout system. Stores that use automatic checkout systems must also provide a clearly readable price and description of each item displayed and totaled on the register receipt. Parties who suffer losses as a result of a store’s violation of the law are entitled to damages, plus $50.00, and stores are also subject to fines for willful violations of the law.
