Went through burger king last night.  Total for our dinner was $10.13.
Only after we got home did I look at the receipt(s).  Register receipt was
10.13.  Debit card receipt (yes, BK takes plastic now, here) was $0.13.
Apparently they typoed while charging the card, so my card only got charged
thirteen cents for a burger combo, some tacos, and two kingsize cokes.

I figure that the $10 they just lost makes up for all the times theyve
screwed up my order in the past 2.5 years.
