Hotels will usually do the same thing.

Needed a jacket that was ~20 Euros. Ordered stuff worth 200 Euros, used 10% over 200 coupon, sent the other stuff back. Got jacket for 1.95€

Once I wanted to borrow a book, but had forgotten my library card. Asked if I could use photo ID. 1/
They said no. Asked how much was a new library card. Was free. Had to show photo ID to get it, then borrowed the book. Stupid rule. 2/2

Ordering clothes, I order the thing I want+some stuff I don't want to reach free shipping at 50€. Return is free so I send the extras back.
cinnamonthedragon
I do that literally every time I order online
MADhouse64
What about the time and effort it takes to send it back, and then follow up on making sure they refunded you the proper amount?
Some stores optimized the process for minimum effort. And I only do this for stores that allow payment by invoice (10 days limit).

Wanted to get MaxPayne3 a while back. It was free with pre-order of a game I didn't want. Put $5 on pre-order. Switched order a week out.
NotSoSmartAlek
Now that's clever. And even if you can't switch the preorder, nothing says you have to actually buy that game - so Max Payne 3 would be $5.
It was at game stop. I once read about an assistant manager who kept his stores numbers up by moving all unclaimed pre-orders to new games.
The one preorder I made, I bought the game (Jade Empire). Worth it even if I no longer have an XBox to play it on.

Searched for my phone in my whole room at night. Switched flashlight off. Found it. In my hands.
Was alcohol involved?
Wasn't, was just pissed and angry and stuff

If you deposit a check at the bank it takes 3 days to go into your account, but if you cash the check and deposit the cash it's instant

I hate this! It's a dumb policy. I always get the cash, then deposit if

And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on anyway.

That's why I love my previous boss. He said flat out that it's his job to ask, but he doesn't give a fuck if we say yes or no.
ImHereToExplainTheJoke
yeah so many people don't get that you don't HAVE to say yes. They can't hold it against you for being unavailable during unscheduled time.
Drathe
Sure they can. They can even fire you for it...if you live in a "Right-To-Work" state.
But if you get fired for not coming in when you weren't scheduled, its not a bad thing. You don't need to be with a company like that.

Welcome to the age of zero hour casual employment. Also giving up a job or get fired is not an option for many ppl in this economy.
CoryBlount
This economy? This is damn near the best economy we've had in ages. Low unemployment numbers mean that people can find work easier.
You mean "At Will". Right to Work refers to busting up unions. Also scummy, but not the same.
ElbowDeepInMythicalCreatures
What about "right to equal.employment"?
Never heard of that but that sound like a grade A rebrand

Spend over £80 for £8 off voucher for next week's shopping. Spent £53, got a £30 kettle. Got voucher, took kettle back for full refund.

Usually I do that for Target. Buy 3 dish soaps, get a 5 dollar gift card. Buy 30, return most of them.

The local BJs had LED bulbs with a manufacturer coupon; $15 for a 4 pack retail, refunded at $25 a 4pack.

Numbers are confusing.

Especially metric.
It was 4 leagues, 3 furlongs and an ounce.

Looks like needed to spend 80 to receive coupon, total came to 53, added the kettle for a total of 83, got coupon, returned kettle.
You are correct

All that to save £8?!

Why isn't it a fee for not showing up then
Mine has a $50 no-show fee.
AncientSeraph
Probably have that as well. Just nicer to also give people that know in advance they can't come incentive to call a bit earlier.

What does "peg" mean?
TheRealCanadianBacon
Take your peg (step 1 be male) and put it in a hole (step 2 find female) hope this helps

Oh... I thought bike pegs.
IamJustinSane
The term comes from when pirates would bring "pegboys" on the ship, 12-14 yo, and shove wooden pegs up their ass to get them ready to fuck.
It was bad luck to bring women on board. So they "conditioned" young boys for the job. These are the pegs.
Yup! Jack Sparrow raped little boys. Didn't see THAT in the Disney film.
