inside the front door of the store that reads: ATTENTION CUSTOMERS. In our current
advertisement dated 5-12-13., we mistakenly printed numerous pricing errors. Given that it is
illegal to sell alcohol below the minimum bottle retail in Connecticut, prices on our shelves may
be higher than prices Ron our current advertisement. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

price of the products.

Mr. Desisto Jr. informed tMs Agent that the main office of the company does all the pricing for
this store. We the employees at the store do not handle any of the prices. The main office
puts all the prices in the computer and when a product Is scanned the price comes up with
the dollar amount that was posted by the main office of our company, This Agent asked Mr.
