a HAUL related Moral Dilemma....

[Joranthalus]

Ok, so i went out hunting on my lunch break. Needed to find Monster Mez-Itz series 2, and figured Tower would be my best bet, so i made the 20 minute drive from my office.

SCORE! Picked up my Mez-Itz (they freakin' rule) and decided to hit the Walmart next door to see if i could find the elusive C3P0 & Chewbacca Galactic Heroes set... (these guys are as elusive as Robert Denby...)

SCORE!

So, on my way out i hit the discount DVD bins looking for some bad movies, and i see the Star Wars set nearby on the shelf, and i was debating whether or not to pick it up cuz i wanted to see the extras, and TCM had such a good idea about selling the movies and in my head i added a bit about copying them first...

Anyway, i picked them up and headed to the register. long lines everywhere, so i had to wait forever. finally the lady rings them up, i swipe my card, select credit, the lady asks me if that's right, so i said yes, she processed my sale and i'm outta there....

I pull into the parking lot at work and i'm looking over my haul thinking about someone else on the board saying they got their DVD set at Walmart for like $38, and i'm thinking mine was $40, so i dig around in the bag and look at the reciept.

SCORE! The total for my transaction was $5.08... For some reason the DVDs didn't ring up, and THAT's why the lady asked me if "that was right", not to confirm i wanted "credit" selected.

So... um, what would you do?

You do nothing and celebrate your sweet deal.

You can't be blamed for a worker's ineptitude.

You should go back and pick up extra sets for those of us who haven't bought it yet. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Seriously though, a Wal-Mart employee obviously made a mistake, not you. I don't think you need to do anything but enjoy that sweet deal.

[bonedust]

thats the penelty retail stores pay for hiring morons to work the registers. the wal-mart by me has NEVER gotten the total right. ever.

stupid them...
