[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 322791"] Star...That is a very sad story. Last year I went to Walmart at 5 a.m. 'cause I wanted to buy two GPS's. I was pleased (but a bit weirded out) to see armed security guards making sure everyone was in line "nicely." Honestly, I do NOT think I will do the 5 a.m. thing again. My story is not nearly as sad or colorful...but it was a bit of a lesson: The only thing that happened to me this year is I went to a store (normal time though) and I had two coupons. I had gotten them from the paper two days in a row and was careful to find them. I had a large purchase and my husband was with- me. We were splitting the purchase in two to make sure I could use the two coupons. A woman in front of me (also with- her husband) was in a panic and her hubby looked ticked. She had forgotten her coupons. So, she asked if she could use mine. I politely said "no" 'cause I was using both of them. She frowned. I said that had happened to me once before a few years ago and I literally went to the store and bought a newspaper and then came back to the store and used my coupon. Then the cashier said that she could scan my coupon twice and it would be okay. So, I said she could use my coupon and she did. The woman tore off out of there 100 miles an hour after handing me my "used" coupon and saying thank you. This made me suspicious. Guess what? When it was my turn, she (the cashier) could NOT scan my coupon. UGH! I should have said, "Then let me go first and I'll give you the coupon (s) when I'm done." However, the cashier was very ice and although we had to wait a fair amount of time....she asked a co-worker for another coupon and it all worked out in the end. [/QUOTE]
