Creative ways to get something for nothing.
You've probably read about my battery scam and my printer cartridge
scam. Here's another couple of good ones. This scam is called price arbitrage. It works like this. You go to a retail store like Wal Mart and you buy a nice watch, for example, that costs a hundred bucks. You go back a day later and buy one that looks pretty much like the first but only costs fifty bucks. You put the fifty dollar watch into the 100 dollar watch packaging and receipt and return it for a full refund in the time allotted. You get 100 dollars back so you got the 100 dollar watch for only fifty bucks. You can do this with all sorts of items. You can do this at the liquor store too. Buy a big bottle of premium rum. Take it home and empty the premium rum into another container and then fill the original bottle up with the cheapest rum you can buy. Then screw the cap back on and return it with the receipt. Tell the clerk that you're bringing it back because when you got it home you noticed the metal seal on the cap had been broken. Tell them you don't want your money back, you just would like to exchange it for a sealed bottle for safety reasons. You'll get a free bottle of premium rum or more accurately premium rum for the price of cheap rum. I've been working this scam for years. The only problem is you can't keep doing it to the same store. You can get by with it maybe once or twice a year. Wilbur Hubbard |

People, day in and day out, are ripped off by retail establishments. Isn't it about time for some payback? Now, I've got to give some serious thought to how to scam some free gasoline. There's got to be an easy way that's been overlooked.... Hmmmm. Wilbur Hubbard |

Good, strong, respectable, manly rum comes in a twist off capped, glass bottle. The little metal ring insures you it hasn't been opened and adulterated. Wilbur Hubbard |

Perhaps, if you are miffed, you might enjoy checking out which Wilbur this is. There are about 50 in the States. I made a start for you. He doesn't live in Phoenix Az. Get an address, and you can turn him in on his own confession. One of the good things about Walmart is their liberal retruns policy. Which gets tightened up when jerks abuse it Brian Whatcott Altus OK |
