If the person behind me were willing to give me the cash equivalent on my coupons, I would gladly not use them. However, I don't think that will ever happen, so I will keep using them.
As far as the OPs situation, I don't think it was the customer's fault. It sounds like the customer didn't know the policy and the cashier was trying to be kind and push the Qs through since they were legit coupons. It just didn't work. Sounds like the OP was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, but I certainly don't begrudge the customer for trying to save a few bucks --nor the cashier for trying to help her do it.
At our local WM, there are a few cashier I avoid because they are so s l o w. Man, one will pick up an item and look at it from every angle and tell you how cute it is or ask who its for, etc, and then finally ring it up. Then it is the same thing with the next item."Oh, I've seen these, but have never used them before. Do you like them?" Scan. Pick uo next item. Exaime it. "Oh, I bought these last week. I really like them. Have you gotten them before?" Listen to your answer. "Well, you're going to love them. I'm sure." Look at item again and then scan. And so it goes.....
