It's always a good idea to check your receipts after paying up at the grocery store:
Chase Dillingham loves Kroger's online grocery pickup (formerly ClickList), at least until earlier this week, when it bounced his checking account.
"We noticed that some of our bills were not being paid out of our checking account," Dillingham said. "So I checked and noticed that the charge for our pickup order was over $12,000."
Dillingham looked at the receipt and found he had purchased oranges for the price of a diamond ring at the Liberty Township, Ohio, Kroger store, 30 miles north of Cincinnati.
"We got a quantity of three oranges, so the receipt shows they were $4,000 and 99 cents each," Dillingham said.
Whew. $12,000 is... a lot of money. Then again, you do need your oranges: They're very good for you, and also how else are you going to do the Godfather orange-in-mouth thing with your grandson?
Anyway, Kroger said that it refunded the money and donated to a "non-profit that the customer frequently volunteers with" in order to compensate him for his troubles, so that's nice. A happy ending all around.
