Appreciation post: A bizarre duplicate receipt glitch at the grocery store caught a double charge error before it hit my account.

Yeah, the "properly audited system" bit reminds me of my friend who found a duplicate charge on her bank statement that their own audit missed. The store's receipt glitch was what actually tipped her off.

Ugh, counting on a glitch is a shaky strategy (it could just as easily hide errors). I'd rather trust a properly audited system.

Honestly, audits can be just as flawed as any glitch lol. They often rely on predefined checks that might miss edge cases, like that bank error. So counting on a glitch isn't always shaky, it's sometimes the only way to catch what audits overlook.
