I love baked goods. Whole grain? Count me in. Wheat bread? Yeah, I like that too. Needless to say, I was browsing about Walmart and stumbled upon some baked goods that had been discounted. I love discounted muffins because it means more money for Starbucks / Domains / Dinners with beautiful ladies / etc.

At the cash register, the muffins ring up nearly $75. Apparently, the computers had been having an issue in the bakery all day. With a little help from a CSM, my purchase was corrected from $74 and change to $1.80. I'm glad it was the only thing I was buying or it might have slipped by.

LESSON: Check your receipts.

You know, my local supermarket has a scanning policy that's basically if it rings up cheaper than shelf price, that's what you pay. But if it rings up more than shelf price, you get it for free.
I once got a slab of dogfood (Eukenuba.... good stuff, but amazingly expensive) for free because of a difference just shy of $1 (although it tipped it over to the next $10 level, which is what made me double take)

You really should check the scanning policies of your locals, see if they do the same. Occasionally you'll get a great saving because of it.
