05/29/2003 Entry: "cheap shoes from walmart!"
the shoes at walmart have two separate barcodes on them: one attached to the actual shoes and one on the shoebox. to discount your shoes, take the box from a cheaper pair of the same brand, and put your more-expensive shoes into them after ripping the tag off them.
here is the cashier's thought process:
"ooo.. have to scan some shoes, lets open the box"
"hmm, there is no tag on these shoes"
"should i call for a price check? fuck it, there's a barcode on the box"
your cashier will then happily scan the box and drop the shoes into a bag for you to take home.
muha! trade secrets!
if any of you get arrested doing this, i am not taking the heat from you

heh, in any event even if the price check did happen, you can always plead ignorant. lots of times the shoe section is a mess anyway at wal-mart. anyway, <3 mewse i need a new pair of shoes :D
