Last time I went the cashier only rang up 5 cases of seltzer and
I was pretty sure I had 6. Because I like to make my life as
difficult as possible, I didn't say anything to her but checked the
receipt after walking away. Went to customer service and got it
cleared up. When I left, there was a new (to me) person checking
the carts, she was like a hawk. I handed her the long receipt and
she paused when she realized the discrepancy, then I handed her
the other receipt. She was laughing, okay! You could see she was
not sure should she make a stink about the 'free' seltzer.
