When I grocery shop I try to always watch the cash register as things get rung in. Today I am sleepy and wasn't paying attention.
When my purchase was complete I checked my receipt and noticed that my strawberries weren't discounted the half off. I turned around and got my $1.24 returned to me.
To most, this isn't a big deal and they may have walked away. To me, I am committed to this Debt Free Journey and wanted the $1.24.
It is now in our change jar. At the end of this month it will be a deposit into our bank account with what ever money has accumulated. This will be towards an extra mortgage payment.
Always check your receipts for these little things.
Also, if you notice you are charged the wrong price, go to customer service. You will receive the item for free if it is under $10 as the Scanning Code of Practice. If the item is over $10 you will receive a $10 discount.
Also there are sometimes survey codes. I have never won a survey, but I keep trying.
CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS!
