Charged

I went to Kroger to get some soup to have for dinner tonight with a grilled cheese sandwich. I grabbed 5 cans of Campbell's soup (in a wide variety) so I could have some for the future. After scanning my items at the self check out, I swiped my gift card to pay for the soup.

I thought I had enough left on the card.
Maybe I should have checked sooner.

The screen read that I still had 16 cents left to pay.
I had 2 cents in my wallet.

I had to charge my debit card for 16 cents.

I think that's a world record.

Just might be. :). I remember having to write out a check for like 45 cents or something in college to pay for computer print outs. Fun stuff.

I'd say writing a check is worse. Nice.

It's because you spent your whole grocery allowance on bananas....
