    Scenario at Target, what would you do?
    You get $200 of stuff at Target. Cashier checks you out and you Ask to swap $2 for change in quarters. You pay with your card but never type in your pin code. You think it's strange but whatever. Maybe she ran it as credit?

    Upon looking at the receipt while outside the store you notice the cashier tendered your entire transaction as cash and it never charged your card. This is $200 of stuff, not like she forgot to scan a can of soup.

    From years of managing a retail store, you know this cashier, who was either new or not properly trained, will likely either get her hours cut or even fired. ...what if you don't know that. How many of you turn around, go back into the store and pay?

      I absolutely positively turn around and give the money back only because I want to protect the cashier, not the big box dept store. Horrific karma if one does not doe that for the person whose job would be on the line

        My mother-in-law worked in the cooperate office when I lived in Minny. They always had great T-pups tickets and Twins tickets they handed out to their employees.

          how will it affect your life?
          how will it affect the cashiers life?

          the answer is simple, do the right thing.

          if a person is that financial broken to knowingly walk away they likely have a handful of unresolved issues in theyre life. not judging, just being realistic.

                  You guys are assuming I didn't go back.

                  You don't get back to back nice guy poster of the year awards by getting girls fired. Not unless you do a hulk hogan heel turn

                  however, others don't have the same opinion

                              she was probably just being a scumbag anyway, not like it's standard practice to ask customers for change

                              this isn't a mom n pop store 20 years ago

                                sounds like your carrying a lot of anger in your life - "guess i'll be the scumbag", "i don't care", "the idiot girl", "another shit job".

                                at least JJ Gold is funny when being insulting.

                                        not at all. bad guess. I'm not liberal. I just have respect for everyone who works to earn theyre own like this "idiot girl". my real disgust is with the entitled American youth and the bullshit "black lives matter", "LGBTQ" and other distraction creating bullshit movements.

                                              I didn't think I displayed any outrage? I just said "sounds like your carrying a lot of anger in your life", but you have the freedom to be who you wish to be I have no desire to control anyones actions, reactions or opinions.

                                                    Upon looking at the receipt while outside the store you notice the cashier tendered your entire transaction as cash and it never charged your card. This is $200 of stuff, not like she forgot to scan a can of soup.

                                                    From years of managing a retail store, you know this cashier, who was either new or not properly trained, will likely either get her hours cut or even fired. ...what if you don't know that. How many of you turn around, go back into the store and pay?
                                                    Wouldn't be so quick to assume she didn't charge your card. It's entirely possible (and likely) when she finalized the transaction at the register she hit the cash key instead of charge. Totals right, just throws off the balance between cash/credit. Assuming your debit card is also V/M C, she probably ran it as credit (no pin required). If you/she swiped your card, you more than likely got charged.


                                                    Edit: Just noticed your receipt, if that's a Target card then ignore my post. Don't know if they require pin # or not.

                                                      Go back in five minutes later, buy a soda and "accidently" give her two twenties instead of one. If she says something, do the same; if not, do the same.

                                                                Different of course now, but same person, different ways of thinking about it all depending on time and place in life.

                                                                      when you return to the store, you approach the cashier and tell her what happened and offer to pay, she will most likely be confused and would have to call a supervisor anyways.

                                                                      So either way she's probably fukked. Guess it depends on the attitude of the supervisor.
