Yes, here in the east it is just as much a crime as in CA. Unfortunately tho, the stores get by with it because so many people don't pay attention. The ones that do NOT pay attention more than outweigh the ones that do, so the fees or fines or whatever they have to pay when someone catches them at it are outweighed by the profits they've made off the people that don't.
In this day and age, the stores are using every trick in the book to make a profit, and many times they don't worry about the legality of their tactics.

I don't know about back East, but in California, bait and switch is a crime. No wonder they were so happy to grease your palm. You should send a letter to your Attorney General about what happened to you. Maybe you'll save others the same grief.
