Teaching a lesson... or trying at least.
This one has nothing to do with a show, I tried to make it relate, but nope not happening.
Yesterday I went shopping (see the WNTW blog). At Cato, I got a shirt, shoes, and a necklace. My total was $26 and some change. I said "Wow, that's the cheapest I've ever gotten out of here, I think."
We left, I went and got my hair and nails done, then came home. I started thinking about my purchases, and how cheap my Cato run was. I wondered what was on super sale, so I got the receipt out. I didn't get charged for my shirt.
So I told Andrew we'd have to go back, because I didn't get charged.
He said, "Or not. You just saved some money." He's 8.
I said, "No, baby, that's not how it works. That's like stealing, and it's bad."
Karma is a boomerang and all that jazz. Woot! A reality TV reference!
So we go take the shirt back and pay for it, there was someone different working and she was very impressed that we did that. Then we went down the shopping center to Quizno's for a bite to eat to go. As we're walking back to the car, I was asking him if he understood why I had gone back to the store and why I had to pay for the shirt.
He said .....
"Yeah. But at Quizno's they don't care, because the sign said 'If you don't get a receipt, it's free.'"

So Andrew has learned to not accept receipts from Quizno's! What an excellent lesson!
