Mrs. Terry is dealing with Alice, a clerk in Peters Department Store. Mrs. Terry sees a cashmere sweater she likes, but she notices it is slightly soiled. Alice, pushing for a sale, agrees to mark it down from $25 to $15, which she has no authority to do. Mrs. Terry says, “fine,” asks that the sweater be delivered, and promises to pay C.O.D. The manager of Peters sees the item being wrapped, corrects the bill, and sends it out to Mrs. Terry. On seeing her sweater accompanied by a bill for $25, Mrs. Terry calls the store. She is told by Peters that Alice had no authority to mark down the price. Mrs. Terry also is told that she should either pay the bill or return the sweater. Is Mrs. Terry entitled to her bargain? Why or why not? (From Mearns, “Vicarious Liability for Agency Contracts,” 48 Virginia Law Review 76.)
