Target Corp. has agreed to pay nearly $4 million to settle a civil complaint filed in Marin County alleging the national retailer charged customers more than the advertised price for its merchandise.
The district attorneys of Marin, Contra Costa, Fresno, Santa Cruz and Sonoma counties and the San Diego City Attorney’s Office filed the complaint. The judgment was signed Monday by Marin County Superior Court Judge Paul Haakenson.
The complaint alleged that since early December 2008, Target unlawfully charged consumers prices higher than its lowest advertised price, misrepresented the weight of Target-brand products, sold commodities by gross weight and sold commodities in less quantities than represented, Marin County prosecutors said.

Target has no honor
And don’t forget the massive security breach from a year or so ago.
Target is a teetering relic and a refuge for deviants. I’d sooner buy used underwear at a NAMBLA flea market.
