Btw, you tried to incriminate me, and ask me not to feel bad?

Legal point of view: this is 100% legal as each item has its own price. And receipt clearly stated you can return the item if you have the receipt and line item for it. The rule should apply to promotion item as well. If the system is set up this way, it is legal.
2. Moral point of view: this is where I think is actually 50/50. We know we are not supposed to split the promotion items but the system allows it. But that can be said for a lot of the deals found on Slickdeals. For example, there are cases there we can apply 2 or even 3 coupon codes to really bring down the price. And there are the ones we know it was a pricing error which offered a huge discount but that was not the intended price.
In short, if you don't feel bad taking advantage of a "deal", do it as long as it is legal. But if you feel morally wrong to take on such advantage of a situation to get a deal, don't do it.
I am on the side of the system allows it, I would do it because it is legal. There are business risk and this are the risk business takes on. However, if a grandma is selling a car for way below market price, I will not buy from her because that is taking advantage of individual folks who could not help themselves.

1) John hacks item A, Peter Hacks item B = same as John bought A and B = Profit
Or
2) Both John and Peter decide to skip and buy from Ebay or Amazon = No Profit
