Haha, its ok xeno, Im sure at some point in your life you have tried to use a "buy one get one free" deal and buy for say, a 10$ item, and try and get a 20$ item for free. Hoping the employee wont notice.... ha, but obviously it wont work, and so you say, "oh I didn't notice"...
Mav, if the employee is not an a-hole he should save you all that work... If the deal is for 5 quarts, and up to a 5$ filter, they will be able to take 5$ off the filter you need. You may have to ask, but this is what they always have to do for me, whenever the mobil oils are the special for that month. Ask if they will before you purchase, if not go to another store. A few employees who recognize me will just throw it in for free anyway, maybe if they are nice may do the same to you.
OH yea, people buy things when they are on sale, and try and return them for the full price at another time, and keep the difference. Big stores and major chains will ask for you name and phone number, maybe license number. They record how many times you try this, and for say twice in six months, you get black listed. So next time you try this you may be stuck with a 5$ Ford Taurus oil filter. |
