Got kicked out of the Best Buy here in Topeka once. They said I was trying to "scam" them.
Details.
They used to have these things called "Gamers Gift Cards". They were gift cards that had pictures of kids playing video games on them, so I suppose they were directly marketed towards gamers. The gamers gift card had a $5 coupon on it towards any video game.
Anyways, they were next to the video games in the same plastic cases that they put the video games in. Anytime I bought a video game, i'd pick up a gamers gift card and apply 1 cent to the gift card so I could use the $5 off coupon on the game. Anytime I did that i'd get a weird look from the cashier but they'd always do it. Eventually I got a cashier with a stick up their ass that called a manager, and the manager told me to get out because I was trying to scam them.
I guess those gamer gift cards cost more than 1 cent to make. I did offer to put more on the gift card (and then subsequently use it) but he said "that is not what they were meant to be used for".
