Snuggie
I thought it would be fun to get my wife a snuggie for either her bday or xmas so I went to the website and found out the give you 2 snuggies for the price of one, just pay extra shipping on the 2nd one.
The original deal - $20 plus $8 shipping = $28
Bonus - second snuggie free plus another $8 shipping = $36.
So you're getting 2 for $36, I figured what the hell, they're screwing me on the shipping but maybe I can find someone else to give the second one to.
So when was checking out on the site, somehow I got confused and order 2 of the double deals, and they were going to send me 4 snuggies for $72 and I was hella pissed. So I tried calling and they said my order "won't show up in their system for about 8 hours so call back then." This smelled like complete bullshit and I was envisioning being unable to stop the snuggie order.
I called back later that night to hear the same answer. But they did suggest maybe I could go online and cancel. So I did. No red tape at all, just canceled. But there is one very interesting detail:
They made an offer to cut the price in 1/2 if I wouldn't cancel. So they were willing to give me 2 snuggies for $18 including shipping!
So if you are going to buy the snuggie, place the order, then try to cancel it, and you'll save big!
