PAY ATTENTION they are NOT giving 15% off the cost. Bait & Switch!
Originally when you buy it it shows:Subscription summary
Items: $2.92
Shipping & handling: $0.00
Subscribe & Save: -$0.44
Total before tax: $2.48
Estimated tax to be collected: $0.19
Order total: $2.67

BUT afterwards go back to your receipt and this is the jacked up charge on the invoice:
Item(s) Subtotal: $2.92
Shipping & Handling: $0.00
Subscribe & Save: -$0.15
-----
Total before tax: $2.77
Estimated tax to be collected: $0.21

$00.30 per stapler is jacking up the price...and illegal!
funny how it's not "illegal" when the price is incorrectly lowered by 30 cents after you click the order button. well, you did the right thing and you canceled on them. that'll teach them! maybe it's an error. personally i would have used the chat button to get an instant $5 credit but hey, dont want to do business with crooks, right?

I am calling attention to the unscrupulous tactics of BAIT & SWITCH to let others know to watch out for this and any other items they might buy on Amazon if they are going to start this illegal practice. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
If, as you say it was an error they wouldn't have waited for 5 minutes after posting the charge to when they suddenly changed the price on all my invoices.
