Default a shop in standstead airport

In a well known paper shop on the concourse in standstead airport I was the victim of an attempted rip off,,
I cashier totaled my goods up to 10,82 pence i thought it was too expensive for what i had !!!!!!!! i paid over the 10.82 and then asked for the receipt. the chashier then quickly handed me 2 pounds and said no it was 8.82 but after she had asked for the 10.82 about 4 times and not until i asked for the receipt did she say it was 8,82 infact the money was in the till LOL
PLEASE BEWARE I INTEND TO REPORT THIS THE THE SHOP IN QUESTION AS I HAVE THE RECIEPT THAT CONTAINS ALL THE DETAILS

Oooh thanks for that I use stansted reguarly, will be Monday week too. Although I must say that I find flying so boring that i arrive and then get my nose stuck into a good book to pass the time, I use speedy boarding so i don't have to jostle to get on the plane and print my boarding card online so no queues at check in cos you don't need to go to check i n, just security. It makes it all a little easier. But if i do look round the shops for any reason i shall be aware.
Ta loads,
Luv Eve

Not Stanstead, but Preston Rail Station, was in a hurry buying sarnies and crisps for a train jopurney, my train was due in so paid over the money, took my goods and ran for the train, When I was sorting out the rubbish from my pocket later that day, lo and behold, I had been charged for 2 packets of crisps, not just the one I had bought. So ripped off to the tune of 68p.
