Si bien es un lugar con variedad de productos a precios módicos, hay que tener ojo al ser atendidos en caja. En varias oportunidades me han cobrado demás (sobretodo el hombre moreno que atiene en caja), sobre todo si es una compra con varios productos. Al principio no me daba cuenta, luego un día sospeché porque no imaginaba que lo llevaba salía tanto y le pedí que lo sumara todo de nuevo. Al hacerlo, habian casi 10 mil pesos demás diferencia. Ahora cada vez que voy sumo yo antes de pagar y aún me pasa que si llevo muchas cosas tratan de cobrarme más. Intentan siempre usar la calculadora en lugar de dar el detalle con el computados (lo cual uno puede pedir). Una vez incluso me ofrecieron transferir a una cuenta rut en lugar de pagar con la tarjeta. (Por ej. si mi total era 22mil, me ofrecian transferir 20 mil) obvio asi no dan boleta ni nada.
