Going to an actual checkout person gives you a better chance of getting all or the majority of your coupons taken. Those self-checkout machines will try to match the coupon to the items you have purchased. Tried the Walmart self-checkout ones and didn't give me jack. Just find some old guy or some guy who doesn't give a **** about his job and you'll definitely save.
The "doesn't give a ****" category includes just about everyone working at Wal-Mart, and rightfully so. It's next to impossible to live on $6/hr. The next coolest thing to do is write "Unionize Wal-Mart" on your dollar bills before going to the store and using them to buy stuff.
Pretty damn sad to stoop that morally low for a couple dollars. I'd rather have a couple less dollars and my ethics intact, thanks. Hope you don't pass those values on to your kids.
my ethical standards are low at best, soooo........ i take full advantage of companies like wal-mart as i see fit. to hell with ethics.
its also pretty easy to switch price stickers at Dillards find something on clearance with a red sticker placed over the orginal tag....peal off sticker, place it on overpriced shirt...boom, a $90 Polo is now yours for $12 or so I've heard
A few years ago while trying on some clothes at some store in the mall, a bag of boxers slipped in with the rest of the clothes. Well, Those boxers were uber cool, and I wasnt gunna pay 10 bucks for em, so i put em on, all 3 of em, and put on my pants back on, and left the store with 3 boxers for free.... Thats one of the few scams ive done. Last year on valentines day, 4 of us guys were looking for some flowers, and when we got to Wallmart(it was late, all the other places were sold out) there were the really costly roses, then there were the cheap ass stuff, well we swithced the tags, and the really costly stuff rang up as "Flowers" and we walked out with some nice flowers.... good times, hell ya.
I have guilt about the boxers yes, but the flowers not really, because 1. Its WallMart, 2. They are freaking flowers, 3. Its a once in a lifetime thing... I dont go out and do this as a means of survival, its for the occasional thrills in life I guess.
Why is it that when you steal from a big conglomerate, people feel it is justified; but if you were to steal from a mom & pop shop, it would be wrong? Just b/c one is more successful than the other? Utterly ridiculous.
When Robin Hood does it, its shown as a noble act, I guess this is where kids get it. From Disney Movies and Cartoons. But seriously, One of them is making so much profit by ripping others off, Its understandable if people go out and steal say a big screen TV from any corporation and you get pissed off, but when its say an Item that is a few bucks, I guess its makes the crime seem less of a crime and more of a get back at them deed.
I prefer this method to scam Wally World... Million Dollar Bill! COVINGTON -- A woman was caught trying to use a fake $1 million bill to buy $1,675 worth of merchandise at a Wal-Mart, and was later found with two more of the bills in her purse, police said. The United States Treasury does not make $1 million bills, but people can buy souvenirs of such a bill at some stores, police said. "It looks real, but of course there's nothing real about this," Covington Police Chief Stacey Cotton said Tuesday. "People do crazy things all the time. I think it's just another example of some odd things that occur." A clerk at the store immediately noticed the bill was fake when 35-year-old Alice Regina Pike handed it to her on Friday, Cotton said. Pike then tried to use two gift cards with only $2.32 of value on them to buy the merchandise, but when that didn't work she again asked if the clerk could cash the $1 million bill, Cotton said. The store then called police. Pike, of Porterdale, was charged with forgery. There was no listing for her phone number in directory assistance, and she could not be reached for comment Tuesday. Covington is 32 miles southeast of Atlanta
I just find it very sad that someone can go out and steal and justify it by claiming they are stealing from a particular company. If they are "freaking" flowers, why was it necessary to steal them? For you it's at least a "twice in a lifetime" thing.
Right, and do you geniuses know the cashiers get fired first should anything at all get slighty suspicious with the receipts? You are putting people in jeopardy of losing the only way they can get make ends meet.
gawd, I hope not...I could only imagine the prank calls she'd get. "Hey Alice, can I borrow a million bucks?" "Hey Alice, this is George W. Bush...since your million dollar bill is a fraud, do you mind if my picture goes on it?" "Alice, I just saw your mug shot on thesmokinggun.com...you certainly have a million dollar smile"
Oh, you can find the ones who are all "Walmart Spirit". Just walk by each lane and you'll see the ones who will look real close at the coupons.
