Doesn't work that way at Publix or Winn Dixie. Cashiers at Publix are trained to send the bagger for your forgotten item. To get something for $2.50, the price has to be 2 for $5. Buy one $5 item, and you’ll pay $5. If it’s BOGO, you get a second for no additional money. I’m not sure why they would encourage waste, but that’s just how it works.
