$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('jaws', 'A') lot of stores have a policy that says 'if the labelled price is lower than the price at check-out, you get the lower price plus 10% off'. Is it dishonest for someone to take advantage of that policy? It results from a mistake by the store.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('ubercrap', 'H')ow about some sheriff pretending to be a 13yr. girl and going into chat rooms,etc..., trying to get some dumb pervert to meet them for sex? In general, the country apparently approves of unethical behavior to get desired results?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('ALBY', 'T')he gas station in question is across a rural 2 lane 'feeder' route from my driveway, which is 200 years long or so.

I immediately ordered a dozen 6 oz fox labs pepper spray grenades. i will not tolerate civil disorder at the end of my driveway !

[bobcousins]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('jdmartin', 'O')f course, what I now find more disturbing than the original bunch of thieves are the fact that more than one person on this board has attempted to justify an obvious case of dishonesty & lack of integrity, even if it wasn't outright illegal.

200 yards.

sorry.

once i post a little more you'll understand and hopefully appreciate my paranoid sarcasm.

[Jack]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('ubercrap', '
')I never said it wasn't legal, but it is probably unethical. How can it be ethical to lie?

Honestly it saddens me to say this, but I am not so certain I also would have not taken advantage of it. I would like to think myself a better person than that, but I am really tired of spending half my paycheck on gas Who knows, lord knows I have spoken up and done the right before even though everybody hated me for it afterwards.

Please remind how the game of capitalism is played? I was under the impression people tended to buy the cheaper option.

If you have two garages, one sells petrol for $32 a gallon, and another for $3.20 a gallon you would go to the second.

Similarly if you have two with prices like $3.20 and $.32 people would tend to the latter.

No magic, no big deal, no dishonesty.

I don't not know that customers were now supposed to care about the vendors profit margins, such concern is indeed commendable but surprisingly rare.

Grocery store errors are rarely a decimal place large. You buy a bunch of groceries including a box of cookies that's normally $3.99, they ring it up for $2.99, maybe the cookies were on sale or who-knows-what, but you weren't planning it and you didn't notice it going through the register, so it's not theft, it's a mistake.

The moral obligation, when you notice something and it's big enough to be questionable, is to question it. "Hey Bob, is that right? Thirty two cents a gallon?"

A week or two ago I saw someone drop a hundred-dollar-bill on the ground. "Excuse me, you dropped some money..." Automatic reflex; doesn't even occur to me to try to swipe it.

Money is a tool, it's worth what you build with it.

Must have accord to you at some time, or you would not have mentioned it now. I do not believe in altruism. In the end everyone is out for "I"

[skiwi]

What's really sad and pathetic is that for 30-45 minutes the gophers running the store noticed nothing unusual about customers putting a couple bucks or more of gas in there tank

Reminds me of the public at large not really noticing a lot of things happening in the world today

come one now, get off your high horse some of you. if i was presented with extra cash out of an ATM i'd take it and try and get more. why? because banks are thieves. my bank charges me £35 if i go 1 pence over my overdraft limit. they charge me 17% interest on my overdraft, but only give me 4% interest on my positive balances.

stick it to the banks and the large corporations - stick it to them!!!! i think the oil companies should be forced to sell petrol at a loss - a very large loss.
