That ma or may not hold water. It kind of depends. Remember, there could have been some kid that yanked a price sticker from another item and placed it on this one.

No, and no.

Technically, displaying goods at a price is called an "offer to treat". Unless your jurisdiction has enacted specific legislation otherwise binding a store to its display price, the store is not bound by it unless and until the contract between you and it is completed. That occurs when you bring the goods to the register and they accept your payment. Otherwise, people (and stores) are allowed to make mistakes, and to correct them.
