A customer's receipt shows an unexpected drop in prices at Edeka.
Many people listen up - and some turn up their noses.
Hamburg – Many people feel joy when they have made a good deal.
Whether they are specifically looking for offers or come across a bargain by chance.
Companies usually deliberately offer their goods at a particularly low price through promotions or brochures - but in the specific case described by a user on MyDealz, it seems to be a mishap.
The common term for this is “pricing error”.
It was probably not intended that the Edeka branch Volker Klein in the EEZ in Hamburg offered the cheese at such a low price.
The price per kilo may simply have been missing a zero.

Edeka error in Hamburg: Cheese price is only 2.29 euros per kilo
However, the buyer brags about his haul on Friday (March 1) and urges others to follow his example.
“I just discovered the following price error while shopping at the weekend,” he says, adding mockingly: “The intern must have had one Secco too many during his lunch break.
The cheese can be found to the left of the cheese counter and there was still plenty there 30 minutes ago.
Bon appetit."
An accompanying photo makes it clear what he means: The price per kilo for the cheese is 2.29 euros, so the 160 grams that the Edeka customer purchased went over the counter for 37 cents.
But it didn't stop there: Another picture shows that he took four pieces of cheese with him.
A small bulk purchase.
Is it morally justifiable to access this?
“Awesome” and “You can freeze cheese,” cheer users.
After 17 hours, the rating in the portal's temperature-based system is +670 degrees - that's impressive.
It was probably about this cheese.

Edeka price error: Some people don't want to buy something like this without hesitation
Since the cheap cheese is only available in a single supermarket, it is of course uninteresting for many users.
They prefer to crack their jokes.
“I just have to calculate how many kilos are worth the trip from the Ruhr area,” jokes one.
“And the first copies are already on the classifieds,” another said.
However, the deal is not without criticism: “Honourable, maybe you would point out the error to the people at Edeka before you post it here,” says one user.
“I would just point this out to little Volker (meaning the Edeka operator, editor’s note) instead of participating in it,” another.
In any case, our editorial team informed the Edeka market about the find.
The Edeka customer apparently bought four portions of cheese.

On Saturday afternoon (March 2nd) the following comment appeared: “Hi, this is the media designer from Edeka Volker Klein.
Someone pointed out the deal to me, and we are now removing the excellent cheese and relabeling it.” Of course, this could also be a fake.
Edeka customers should currently be informed about a meat recall.
A Facebook user recently got pissed off while visiting the supermarket and demanded a written statement from Edeka.
