Stopped by my local Walmart this evening in hopes of grabbing a few more of these trusty lighters. Wife and I picked up a few other items and off to the check out we went. A young girl rang us up and when I got to the car and checked the bill, it seemed very low (knowing that $ 30 would be for the Ronsons alone). I noticed that she had only rang me up for two at $2.94 each. Being the good guy that I am, I went back in and spoke to the manager about the pricing and that I hadn't been charged properly. The manager looked at me and thanked me for my honestly and said "the other eight are on me, have a great evening". :tu :tu 10 Ronsons for $5.88... :D +1 for Walmart!!

Wait, you're saying Ronsons are $15 each at your Walmart?

Last time I was there they were under $3 each.

10 Ronsons (at $ 2.94) = $ 29.40

I know it's not CA math...but work with me brother. :r :r

Whoa. I read the original post as you bought two, saw the price and picked up the rest and they decided to give you the rest.

So much for 15 years of school and reading comprehension. :D
