Got into a full class debate today. The scenario is this. You are in Walmart with 2 $60 items. You get rang up for one, so you're total is $60 plus tax. The cashier looks clueless to their mistake. Do you say "that's not right, they're $60 a piece?" or do you just pay the $60 and leave?

Now, everybody in the class gave the politically correct answer and acted like great, Christian, honest, never gonna tell a lie people. They said "i'd tell them of the mistake." Meanwhile, I said "hell, i'm a college student. If they screw up, that's on them."

So, how would you guys respond (or how have you responded before)?

This actually just happened to my wife and I last week... we bought like $300 worth of groceries etc. at Walmart and her purse was in the cart. We unloaded it and there was a book she was gonna buy sitting under her purse, which didn't get moved. When we got to the truck in the parking lot, my wife realized it and took the book back in and paid for it. It was the right thing to do... although I must admit, that had I been in a hurry I may not have done that.

Walmart...hell no I wouldn't point out their mistake. Small local business? Yes. Difference? Multi-Billion dollar organization that can afford the mistake versus a small profit line company that needs every penny (which if I had already decided to support, I will make sure I'm honest). Walmart's loss is your gain and the karma is probably on your side in that case.

It depends on the situation and the mood I'm in really.

If it's the situation you just described, I probably don't say a thing. It isn't the cashier's fault, but the person who entered the pricing that made them ring up that way.

If I get into the car and find some freebies in my bag, I probably just keep on driving.

I think the most common example would be incorrect change. If a cashier gives extra change I usually will say something unless it's just a few bucks because they will get in trouble for being under on their till.

      I’m trying to be positive on Bryce Young, but….

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Who is comparing the two QB’s as football players? They’re completely different QB’s i said before Baker got here that he could play but the huddle swore up and down he was the worst ever  Bryce very similar right now. Bryce out there with a bunch of guys that’ll be out of the league in a few years minus TMac. And given this thread is about the 4th and 1 play specifically well it was actually TMac that butchered the entire play by running the wrong route

      Team goes as the QB goes. It's no wonder we get dogwalked on a regular basis. That's the face of the franchise.

      All six of Nic Scourten’s pass rush attempts yesterday

      Rookie 2nd rounder in his first career game (and a few weeks post punctured lung) gets 6 snaps, is doubled on 5 of them, created a pressure to force a QB scramble on the only one he was singled, and still put a little pressure on one of the doubles which ended up being an INT........... And people look at that as a bad first impression? Even if you wanted to see a better move to beat or get off the double team, just the fact that he's making teams account for him with 2 players on a given snap, is a win for the defense.  It's up to the rest of the defense to make the other team pay for doing so, you can't fault him for that. Seriously, it's like some people are just going to be upset with everything if we're not a SB contender every season and play like it every snap of every game.  I've been screaming it all offseason, we're not a player or two away from being a contender, we're still in the early phase of a re-build, especially if we don't have the QB (spoiler alert, we don't).   Sometimes you just have to see potential and growth from a team at this phase of the process, expecting elite play in week 1 out of guys like Scourton is a picture perfect recipe for ending up upset. If that's what he does in his first game coming off the freak injury and less practice time while recovering, I'm extremely optimistic of what he can turn into with more experience and time to work on his craft.
