let's say a large company has a price tag on a pack of gum for $.99 at the register, but when it's rung up, the barcode actually rings it up as $1.99, and people are quietly overcharged under their noses at this store

nobody has noticed this company's mistake. how does one profit off of this?

Buy a whole bunch. Call weights and measures and then anonymously report the discretion. Wait for the day of inspection then walk in when they are inspecting and say you have been buying at the store for years.

what's the point of filing a class action lawsuit if it gets me only the $1.00 from the gum packet i bought

you threaten to sue and then settle quietly, they might pay you a nice sum for not disclosing their errors.

Suing is expensive and class action pools lots of people's claims into one case?

>A customer purchases $100 worth of product.
>Notices the overcharge.
>Refuses to complete the transaction until the problem is fixed.
>People are slowly piling up behind them.
>Customer threatens to sue.
>People behind them are noticing what the company is doing.

The winnings get divvied up between all winning plaintiffs.

So if you win $1million, and there's one million plaintiffs, you get a dollar!
