When is overprice, a Rippoff ?

I can't remember ever taking an iten back for a refund because it was cheaper some where else, but I did a couple days ago at Napa Auto.
I needed an auto part, and a wd40, so thought even tho the wd would be a buck+ more, I would just get it there. But looking at the over priced tag on the way out, I saw the outrageous price of $7.99 for the 8oz wd. So, out of curiosity, I stopped at another store 4 blocks away, and the exact same can was $3.69,......so I bought 2 for $7.38, returned the $7,99 can for a refund. The guy gladly gave me my 8 bucks back, and his attitude was, "he couldn't have cared less"
Am I cheap, or did I just plain get ripped at Napa ?
Needs no answer.

  • I purchased the 8oz. at Dollar General for $1.89. Did I get ripped off ?
  • I like to do my price shopping before I buy anything. It's easier and less hassle.
    But, that's just me. :)
  • you did not get ripped off ,thats there price and you were willing to pay it, nobody said you had to buy it.
