I did the monthly shop.
Picked up a new fleece beanie at Drakes to replace the itchy wool one which has given me the rash.
It was $17, on discount from $22. Looked good quality.
I saw on my receipt after that it had scanned at full price. I said to the checkout matron "I just need to go and do a price check on that beanie" and left the trolley and went to see if I was mistaken about the beanie price. I always do my own price checks these days after too many incidents of muffled phone requests for someone to come and do one which leave me standing there for minutes like a jerk off. When I got to the beanie display I saw on the tag's fine print that the special ended yesterday.
I was going to just return the beanie for a refund or maybe see if the lady would give me the discount price so I would get $5 back but when I explained about the old tag still being up she said I get the beanie for free. $22 back to my debit card and a nice new beanie in my bag.
She took my word for it all too - didn't send anyone else out to verify. A bit of good fortune has gone my way. I was right to renounce natural fibres.
