Back in the late 90s- early 2000s they had those "buy CDs by mail, only 1cent each!" magazines. The catch was that shipping was like $20 per cd. I was a kid so I ordered like 6 CDs which ended up being $120. Once the CDs and bill came, and realizing what I had done, me and my mom told the company that some kids had stolen our mail and ordered them, so we didn't have to pay. Scam the scammers. The p-p-p-powerbook was and still is the best scam-the-scammers thing Summary, with pictures of the "powerbook"!: http://joi.ito.com/images2/thepowerbook.pdf http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=1016390 Thin Privilege fucked around with this message at 18:13 on Feb 21, 2016 |

The ones where you get a massive discount on some attraction (e.g. Disney World), you just have to sit through a Timeshare presentation... and then you have sit down with a high-pressure salesperson, which isn't mentioned until it happens. We spent 2 hours having this rear end in a top hat try to convince us to buy a timeshare but we refused and eventually he gave up and we got two 2 day tickets to all parks in Disney World for $30. (This was in '98).

Eien Ni Hen posted:-People hiding meat at the grocery store, then retrieving said meat when it's past its sell-by date, and trying to get another of the same item for free because "your store had expired meat for sale." I always heard grocery store employees complaining about hidden meat and they and I thought someone was just too lazy to put it back, but now it makes sense.
