Cookie dilemma - Page 3

I used to love Keebler Soft Bake Cookies. As well as Keebler Tato Skins. Those TGIFridays ones just aren't the same.

I agree. We can mourn together.

Interesting. I never would have thought to report it to them, as I would have felt guilty about that as well. "Hey, I broke your merchandise, but as I prefer whole cookies I'm going to let your store eat it." I always thought "you break it, you buy it" was the standard line.

I did not mean to drop them, but I did. As I actually did want Oreos, it wasn't that much of a stretch for me to buy them. If I opened a package of broken cookies as a kid I would have been bummed.

Ah well, at least I erred on the side of caution

and these are fun to dunk.

I would probably have glanced around to make sure no one saw, then put the broken ones back and grabbed a fresh pack. Just being honest. I think what you did was noble, CP.

This just brought to mind another moral dillemma. Just how much trouble will you go to to ensure that you got the correct change? If a cashier gives me too much change and I notice it at the register or on my way out of the store, I'll go and let them know. If I'm already at my car or on my way home, their loss, unless I'm feeling particularly honest that day.

I always make sure to give it back to them. I used to run registers in past jobs, and it truly sucks when the till doesn't add up.

Clearly the fault of the broken Oreos is the engineers of the packagin department, they know the rigors of transit and handlin of their goods - if they really cared they'ed desin some sort of inpenetrable tin like those Danish Coookie Meisters.

Don't forget the crinkly cookie cups, aka cookie airbags.

Yeah, I've done lots of registers too. I try to make sure I got my correct change when they give it to me. But a couple of times I've realized I was overchanged (by like a dollar) when I was already putting the keys in the ignition. It just wasn't worth getting everyone out of their carseats again to correct someone else's mistake.
