Winn-Dixie employees were scrambling Friday to get to the bottom of a malfunction that overcharged an unknown number of pre-Thanksgiving shoppers at the grocery chain’s 485 stores.
Officials at Winn-Dixie, one of the nation’s largest grocery store chains, say they believe the malfunction was corrected by Friday.
Credit- and debit-card machines at Winn-Dixie stores charged some shoppers twice for groceries bought Wednesday, one of the nation’s biggest grocery-shopping days.
No discernible pattern has emerged as to which shoppers were double-charged. The number of customers overcharged and how much money was involved won’t be known until next week, sources within the company said.
