Also sometimes the stores "play games" with produce. Here is a trick that I learned that makes sure the produce is organic. I have seen the stores put the conventionally grown produce in the organic spot and hope no one notices....

Organic produce has a sticker that has a 5 digit produce code starting with a number 9 as in 94023
Produce that is conventially grown with synthetic pesticides, etc. is a 4 digit number starting with a 4  as in 4265.
