My wife and I went to Walmart the other day to buy a few things. We also had a return so my wife stood in line for the return while I went and picked up the few things I needed. When we met back up at the register she told me the lady in front of her in the return line was returning about $50 of milk and eggs and cheese. This seemed weird to us and we were talking about it when the lady checking us out also chimed in about other weird returns. She said people will buy a giant sheet cake eat less than half then return it. Because they have the receipt Walmart will refund their purchase. So I said, you could throw a birthday party and return the uneaten cake for a full refund? Yep, she said, and that is a tip for your next birthday! Look I like easy return policies and I don’t want to be hassled about why I am returning something, but doesn’t that seem dishonest? As we walked away from the store I then realized why the lady was returning the dairy products. Those are things you buy with Government assistance, which if you have a receipt you can get cash back for. The worst part is that all of those items are perishable and can’t be restocked. So the food stamp program got ripped off and so did Walmart. I walked away feeling really good about our country and our future!
