Bait and switch came in to get crickets and as I was checking out my total was 9.00 and some odd cents well the girl said oh you get a free gift and I said sure well turns out that “free gift” cost me another 10.00 I didn’t know I made a donation I would have gladly but not under false offerings. I didn’t want to cause a scene because there were people behind me but not okay to deceive people to get a donation.
