I do that with SUV's.

Have you NO understanding of how a business is run and the COSTS involved? This childish stuff eats in the PROFIT of the small business. I'm thoroughly disgusted that an ADULT would lower themselves to this idiotic behavior!"

I am on your side! I worked stocking shelves for a department store and doing inventory. It takes very little time to put a handful of widgets on a shelf. I thing the person who pulled this prank is the one who lost on the deal because he paid for something he never used. It is crazy actually. The store got his money, he got nothing.

Boy, this is right up there with calling them on the phone and asking if they have Prince Albert in a can.

Thank you for all the responses! It was very enlightening.

Any yes, those refrigerator magnets are still sitting in that convenience store. Now I've shifted my attention to buying out the supply of classic Duncan Yo-Yos.
