Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

OK, guys, could really use your help on this, as gas money (well, ANY money) is getting scarce. I entered my pic at the Brads Deals contest - http://www.facebook.com/bradsdeals Unfortunately, there is no dedicated spot, you just post to their wall. Look for "Tom Stangl" or the pic of the hippy in the tie-dye T. I just posted it, 1 Like (me) so far, and the leaders are up near 200, with the end of the contest in a few days (I THINK 4/20). So if you have FB Friends with lots of Friends, feel free to ask them to vote for me (Like my pic - that's all that is needed to vote, no comment needed)

Argh! My pic showed there for a minute or 2, and now isn't there. I uploaded it again, hopefully it will stay there this time...
Yep - you've been "Liked"!

Okay, this is a long one, but please bear with me.

Did anyone ever work in a grocery store as a cashier? I have a problem and don't know which option would be better for the kid who rang up my Ralphs purchases.

I had that Pemmican coupon (and I honestly don't remember how much it was good for, so if you still have it or remember the value of it, please let me know). At any rate, I went to Ralphs after "work" and asked where they sold the jerky. I was told that it was on aisle 12 and also around the various cash registers (I guess it's an impulse purchase for some people). There were none on aisle 12, but I found a large package near the end of the customer line, so put it into my cart. There was no price on it.
Well the store was packed and everyone in a rush, including the cashier. He looked at the coupon took off the price and I paid for the rest of the items. I didn't know the price of the jerky until I got home and looked at the register receipt -- it was almost $11.00. I'm certain that the coupon was worth nowhere near that price.

As it takes me two buses to get to Ralphs and another two to get home, I didn't immediately return to fix the mistake. But now that I'm thinking about it, I'm not certain I even should go back and tell them what happened.

1. Will the cashier get in trouble for giving me the wrong credit because management will notice his mistake?
2. Will he get in trouble if I go back and point out the error because no one would have noticed it otherwise?

I don't know how grocery stores work but I'm hoping someone here does and will let me know the best thing to do. Please note: I would have no problem ripping Ralphs off for the entire $11 because I've had enough stuff I've purchased not make it into my bag over the years. I just don't want to get the cashier in trouble.
I think as long as he wrote the price he deducted on the coupon all his numbers should match as far as money in the drawer and reciepts. They wont know anything untill they dont get the amount back but they wont know who did it buy them. If you go back now they will know who did it. It all depends on if you want to pay the difference or protect the cashier from getting in trouble.

Nope, not referring to you as one of the whisperers (I don't think--unless you were whispering with Dabbs & MLx3 and I think Angie--not sure about who they all are). Just got a big kick out those whisperers who were using tiny fonts and grey fonts to post--silly little thing, but it tickled my funny bone! I don't remember what your location is, but OMG to be allergic to mosquitos - YIKES! Those buggers are all dependant on how wet the spring is and how much stagnant water there is in any given area. We jokingly call them our State Bird! As for your hubby swellin - ain't touchin that with a 10-foot pole!LMAOLMAOLMAOLMAO

Have you run Ad-ware yet. I run both of them each month as it detects different things.
