This happened about a week ago. We have a promotion at the petrol station where you spend a certain amount in the supermarket and get up to 10p off per litre of fuel. This promotion comes and goes, and has been going on for years. A customer came into the store with a coupon which looked a bit funny, so I took a closer look at it. Seems ok, til I see the date and facepalm. The date is the same date as today, cept that it's dated one year ago. I refuse it; the customer did not make a fuss, probably cuz he knew he was pushing his luck even trying. Out of curiosity, I tried to scan it and the till refused it. Funny that.

Not that it had a coupon or anything, but our new kitten was recently playing with a crumpled Red-Bullseye receipt.
Examination of said receipt (which had no items of any importance on it, like some electronic item I would want to retain the receipt for) revealed it was from 2001. We didn't even live in this house then, but somehow the receipt made it here, and was discovered by the cat.
I wonder what the expression of the poor CS clerks face would be if I tried to return one of the items on that receipt?

When I worked in a long term (days/weeks) car park at Gatwick, I once had someone present a ticket with over 5 months to pay on it... Turned out they'd lost this ticket last time they took a holiday, then found it when searching for the one they lost for this holiday! Luckily they were able to find the right one, and avoided paying more to get their car back than it was worth... Not that it would have come to that, as we'd just have invoked the same lost ticket procedure they'd had to go through the last time.This was one of those times where my mouth says "have a nice day" but my brain says "go step on a Lego". - RegisterAce
