Last Friday we went grocery shopping at Wal-Mart. While checking out we decided to get a gift card for my mom’s wedding. This is brand new Wal-Mart that opened about a week ago, so it seems all the employees are brand new. The girl at the check-out messed up trying to activate the gift card and billed us twice then while trying to fix it she messed it up even more. I was there for about 20 minutes more than I wanted to be and eventually just asked them to take the charges off for the gift card and forget it.

Today I noticed our bank account showed that they refunded the whole purchase. So basically we got $132 woth of groceries for free. It was pretty obvious that we couldn’t just live with that, so we went back today to pay for the groceries. We were there for quite a while as another new girl had to hand enter each 12 digit code for every item on our receipt. What made it worse was that she didn’t know 10-key. It was really a pain in the butt, but I’m glad we did the right thing.
