>Oftentimes, people don't really bother to verify the price of what they're buying based on the weight, especially for raw food. One man from Georgia, however, begs to differ, especially if you're buying your meat in Walmart. Lately, he has been cracking down on the supermarket chain and alleges that Walmart is still rampantly putting the incorrect weight on their packaged meat.

>TikToker James Wrigg, reportedly from Commerce, Georgia, is the investigative shopper in question, and he posted his quick findings online around mid-January 2026. In the video, Wrigg checks a pack of chicken supposedly weighing 4.66 lbs based on the tag, and after weighing, it only came up to 2.37 lbs, though the price was for 4.66 lbs. Because of this, Wrigg declared, "They're ripping people off! [Expletive] scam!"

>Wrigg further clarifies that it's the same for the other meat packages, implying the wrong weight was not a mistake or isolated case. Wrigg, who captioned his series, "Walmart a little heavy on the scale!" even went to other meat sections in Walmart and states, "Just pick anything out, look through it a little bit." He then did the same for a chunk of ham, same results, the actual weight was lower.

>After further and repeated investigations, Wrigg even brought up his complaints to Walmart's management chain, and he claims, "It's insane! They don't care at this level- they should! They're average people too," after hearing their response. At the time of writing, however, Wrigg hasn't posted the management response footage and is still editing it. Regardless, the angry Walmart shopper stands by his point and the results of his quick investigations.

>Sadly, it appears it's not the first time Walmart was allegedly caught red-handed, supposedly inflating the prices of its goods. Back in 2024, the supermarket chain settled for $45 million in a lawsuit where they were accused of overcharging shoppers using weighted goods. It appears Walmart committed the same price inflation in the past, and it just so happens that meat prices are the easiest to manipulate based on weight. Still, Walmart denied the allegations despite settling.
