doesn't sound like either the store or the bank are really devoting a great deal of time (or effort) to this mistake. Just another day at the office - and 'price of doing business.' Ho hum.

I'm also perfectly willing to go along with a 'glitch' (and the fact that they happen w/ POS systems). But - the bank credited that transaction to somebody's account - that fact is clear. Grocery store says "we didn't get it." Uh huh. That right? How many minutes did your 'assistant manager' spend on that?
