My store has a policy where if you forget your coupon, you can bring the receipt within two weeks and get the price adjusted, no problem. It's a little annoying because I have to return all the items, then type in the numbers to resell it, but not a big deal. However, this lady...
A couple days earlier the store was running a promotion where all clearance was an extra 25% off the ticketed price. Apparently, this person had bought a bunch of 97 cent items, so her total for each one was 73 cents. The total of the receipt, with tax, was a little over $16.
On Friday, she comes to me, having bought about 20 items, asking for it to be adjusted with her coupon. I do, but internally groan. Each item has a 14 digit code I have to type into the computer, and we've been having keyboard issues. It takes literally about ten minutes to complete. Guess who much she saved? This crazy long transaction get her back? $2.67. Two dollars and sixty seven cents!
