I just bought an orchid that was listed at $9.99, but the cashier rang it up as $0.99.

Does that make me the Orchid Thief?
 
Nope, that means they're overpaying their cashier :)

If you feel bad about it, you could go back and talk to a manager, let him know what happened.
 
Your penance is to watch White Oleander six times and eat a bucket full of dry,unsalted, unbuttered popcorn at EACH viewing!

THAT'LL TEACH YOU!!!!!!
 
It probably costs 0.99$ and they put the wrong price sticker 9.99$ :popcorn:
 
The larger issue is the dilemma as to why you are buying flowers.

Oh that's easy. A while back I lost the humidifier and I neglected my terrarium for a while, I lost most of my plants, including my Phalaenopsis specimin. I've been rehabilitating for a while now, adding a plant here and there. Some of the Paperwhites (Narcissus papyraceus) are about to bloom, and finally my third paperwhite plant is poking up through, and I have a tropical Amaryllus which will poke up through in the back.

The english ivy is even starting to show new growth finally, but unfortunately I think I lost all the moss growth, which I will need to replace next spring.

Any other questions? :)

I just thought you might be moving to the doghouse.
 
LOL. No, not this time. I've always had this thing about creating these little worlds inside of containers.
 
If you have a moral dilemma, it just means you haven't drank enough yet.
 
Quite a few years ago, there was this local kid who went in to a Sports card shop and bought a card lablled $1200 for $12.00. The company took him to court. The judged ruled that since the kid knew it was worth 1200 (It was proven he knew the value since he was avid collector, in the store frequently, waited to deal with an inexperienced staff member....) it was considerd a "bad faith" (I think that was the term) transaction and he was ordered to return the item and get his $12 back or pay the difference.

Oh...I got the pun...that's why I suggested you had to watch another equally horrible film as punishment!!!!
 
I think I recall he returned the card cause he didn't have the 1200. (Kid was young. 12-14 or somthing like that.)
