Mistake at JF...feeling a little guilty
I took my mom to Joann Fabrics today. Seniors would get 20% off the purchase today only, so she said she'd come along so I could get the additional discount. Nice!
We picked up a few things, including an Accuquilt Die, which can normally never be used with a 40% off coupon.
I handed the postcard with all the coupons to the checkout gal, and when I got home and looked at the receipt, she gave me 40% off the die along with the 20% off the total.
I am feeling a little guilty.
Should I return it and pay the correct amount?
Catholic Guilt is a killer!
LOL

I don't know about your JoAnn's, but at mine, they do what the register allows. You ask them if you can use this coupon or the other, and they say, "Let's see what the register says". They don't make those decisions, the register does.

If the 40% off coupon scanned then it was allowed, so don't feel bad.
A month or two ago I went to Joann's to get some FQs on sale and got a piece of yardage as well, I had some other stops to make afterwards and it didn't really ding until later that the amount that rung up was too low, so I checked the receipt and the yardage wasn't rung up, so I went back, she found the yellow slip and it took some playing with the register to ring that up. I went back a few days later for some home dec. fabric and the same thing happened, the yardage slip bar codes weren't scanning (and the girl at the register hadn't realized it till I pointed it out).
I imagine they have that fixed by now but I wonder how much un-rung up yardage went out the door because neither register operator nor customer realized those slips weren't scanning.

Says the discount applies to regular, sale and clearance items.
I know Catholic guilt, some of us have even perfected it, it's more my mother's words that stick with me.
