    Geeze - I was in Walmart this a.m., and I think I was one of maybe a dozen people in the whole store!!! Of course I could find hardly anything I went in for too. NASCAR race fans cleared the place out over the weekend, and the store is getting ready to close down in a few weeks (new Supercenter opening closer to me), so they aren't restocking much of anything. What I did manage to find - I wasn't overcharged on.

    I can see making an issue of overcharging by much more than 2 cents - but 2 cents wouldn't even be worth the time and effort. I know it's a matter of principle, but look at the time and effort that went into filing a court case. Since this isn't the first time that this person has had an issue with this particular store, it seems to me that she's milking it for all it's worth. She got $100 on a 2 cent price discrepancy??? - not a bad profit margin at all. I wonder how much she got in her other disputes???
