    I give money to cashier, change comes out of coin dispenser. I say "Looks like I won again!", cashier dies a little inside.

    Every time.

    Long long ago in a callcenter not too far away, I made a guy choke on his drink. As required, I asked if there was anything else he needed before I ended the call, to which he replied "the winning lottery numbers?" I said "if I had those, I wouldn't be talking to you."

    I worked in groceries story when I was younger.

    But funily enough, it's probably one of the rare times I'd have answered "yes"!

    We got a policy here where anything mislabelled under 10$ is free for the first item. Anything over 10$ gets a 10$ rebate.

    My understanding is that it was put in place a while ago when stores stopped labelling individual items to keep them in check and ensure that consumers had a recourse in case of mistake.

    NULL being "no money" by any definition, and the regular price for this probably being under 10$... well, it's probably free!
