After buying things, do you have the habit of checking it manually? How many of you check the bill everytime.
Its very essential thing. Its not like we should trust computrised bill always. We should check whether they've written the same products we bought or any extra. How many of you having habit of checking these manually?

Hi dear,
Normally, if I am alone, I don't do it. But if I am associated with a group of people and together with some one else, they would check it. I didn't made it as a habit. But as you said, it is always preferable to do so. The items order and the bill may not match always. I think it is our responsibility to have a counter check so that unexpected errors can be avoided.
Regards,
Thank-s

Hi,
Yeah its our responsibility to be careful on bills. Atleast when we're buying more things, after returned home or just in that shop we can check it to avoid losses. Because of the crowd they may make mistakes. I dont know about others. But even for Rs.10, 20, i 'll worry if i loss it because of careless. So better to avoid losses.

Hi dear,
You are right.
Yesterday when my sister bought some items and after reaching at home, when she compared, she found about Rs 34 was put extra and (same thing for 2 times). However, she is prepared to show it after wards with the shop). As you said, whenever we are in a hurry, this will not considered.
But it is not a simple thing, sometimes the shoppers do purposively also.
Some people will not make a 2nd turn for the rectification.
In such case, they are in a gain with a 'motto' behind it.
Thanks for your response.
Regards,
Thank-s

ihave no such habits, but i admit that it is a mistake not to check the bills everytime it arrives. you should check it and always make sure that you understand what you are paying for! these bills aren't always accurate and they could be charging a couple of dollars more than they should so always understand and double check the bills... especially with credit cards, and cellphone bills!

Hello, Shineveramya. Yes, I always check the bill, everywhere. Earlier this week, I bought some mosquito netting from a garden centre and was charged 11.00 Euros instead of 3 Euros, so I went straight back in and got my money back. I often find things are priced at one price on the shelves and register at another on the bill, so I've saved myself a lot of money by checking. Funny they always seem to charge you too much - never too little.
