 Walmart says customers overcharged at some US stores due to technical issue
==========

Walmart experienced a technical issue in mid-March that resulted in overcharging customers at some stores in the United States. The issue lasted for days and affected self-checkout kiosks at 1,600 stores, resulting in overcharging on thousands of items. Walmart has prioritized refunding affected customers. The company did not disclose the number of products impacted or the amount of overpayment. In January, Walmart settled a class-action lawsuit in Florida for $45 million over allegations of overcharging. Walmart has invested billions in upgrading its stores and technology, including self-checkout options.
