the only walmart error i like to see is in the sporting goods area. That is aslong as the clerk isnt going to have to pay out of pocket for my deal
Like several years ago, I went in to get a box of 22 Mags. They were around $8 a bx and they didn't have any single 50 packs out. But I noticed the case pack on the bottom shelf. I told the girl, hey won't you just give me that big box.
She said ok, and she scanned the barcode on the box and it came up less than $9 after tax. I said, wow these things have really gone up! And she laughed and said yeah, I think everything has...

Suckers...
My x brother -in-law was a master of free stuff at wal mart. He bought a $100 rod (yeah, who knew wal mart sold $100 rods??) And 2 years later he broke the tip off. He took it back to the store and they gave him $38 and a new rod. LOL Apparently the price had come down since he purchased it. And another time we bought an * load of camping gear and the cashier set the lantern over to her left, but she didn't scan it. So she gave him his total and said will that be all? He said yes, did you get everything? She says yes, ok, and how much is it? She told him, and he put his checkbook on top of the lantern and said, hmm, seems prety cheap. Her reply was "That's wal mart". He smiled and said, yep, it sure is...

IMO what you have described here is nothing short of THEFT.
Knowingly taking something you didn't pay for by taking advantage of employee error.
Congrats, you just revealed to the board that you are a person of minimal honor.
A few months ago I ordered an alternator for my truck. It was $126. Had to wait 3 days to pick it up and pay for it. I called the store a few times the day it was supposed to be there wanting to get it in my truck ASAP. When it finally came in I went to get it and the guy put it on the counter and said there you go sorry for the delay and walked away. I said wait a minute I need to pay for this, and did.
A few weeks ago I went to a local club for lunch. Wrote a $20 check and put it in my wallet to cover food there. When I got to the club the kitchen was closed for remodeling. Then I though ship I need to cash this to have money to get lunch somewhere else now. So I gave it to the bartender and he brought back $200 and handed it to me. I stood there for a second counting the money thinking what it all this for? Then it dawned on me he really f'd up. I yelled to him "hey this is too much" he said you cashed a check for $200, I said no it was for $20. He went to the register looked at the check again and said oh ship your right, I could have swore it was for $200. I left with my $20 and all was good once again.
Anybody can make a mistake. I just hope it's someone honest when it's my turn to f up.
It's amazing how people are so different.......
