Crazy town USA

[Frodo]

Today was rather interesting 

try and follow along. I ramble 

we have an insurance card that gives us $75. We can use for food or utilities, they load it on t by e 1st of the month 

we went grocery shopping, we live rural so we only go 1 time a month

we had 2 carts full of junk at the register and after it was wrung up. I used 2 crass to buy the bill

first the insurance card.  
thh my en my debit card 

no problems, off we go to unload 

when we got home the wife reforms me that our bank shows we paid all of the bill and the insurance card was not applied 

quickncall to that cards number verified that yes it was used

hummmm.  Seems that t by e store owes me the $75 it collected twice

phone calls made and facts are laid out

we arbiter for 45 minutes store says no record of a card being used and the card co says,  yes it was used at xxxx time and xxxx register

after demanding supervisors  they say they will reimberse

i feel vindicated. Feeling good

then wifey tells me thevreceipt she gave Me from the day before and the one she now has clearly shows the card transaction 

opps

so now I have to call them back and say I was wrong do not reimburse 

vhess I am about to eat some crow

 So what does a crow tastes like? Chicken ??  Goes well with a bit of garlic and seasoning  no doubt     I have heard that some of the old timers  around here used to eat Cockys ( cockatoos)  and Galahs in the very early days  .  I've had Emu once ( commonly pronounced eemyoo)  Tastes very gamey , but nice

Nothing worse than the realization that you've been confidently incorrect...well good on you to be honest and call back.

We've all been there Frodo. No point wasting any more brain time on it. Just move on.
