I'll admit I've done this first bit (taking advantage of a poorly worded
ad), not in this instance, but during the Ames 75% off Star Wars Sale.

Please, this is a public forum frequented by a minority of children as well

This is despicable. I don't think you should be bragging about using one
store's mistake to cheat another. This isn't what LUGNET is about. This
isn't a den of theives where we brag about what we stole today, and what we
plan on stealing tomorrow. This is a public forum for lovers of LEGO to
talk about their love of LEGO, not about stealing to feed an addiction.
It's people like you who blemish a good thing like LUGNET. For God's sake,
if you're going to cheat someone, even a multinational corp. such as
Walmart, you should be ashamed. I, as a member of this community feel
ashamed that we include scum like you in our daily net-dealings.
