Jeez, you don't mean a rebate coupon, do you? For a penny?!  I think I might have had a laughing fit there on the spot.

It must have cost more to post it than it was worth   Absurd.

It can go the other way.  Years back, the Reader's Digest organization mistakenly sent me two copies of a book I'd ordered, and I returned one, obviously.  But somehow they missed telling the computer that in a proper manner.  I got an invoice for £0.00.  Naturally, I ignored it.  Then another came.  Then one printed in red.  At that point I phoned in, and someone said they'd fix it, but then I got a threatening letter saying if I didn't pay, they'd sue.  In my next phone call, the person said the quickest way to fix it would probably be if I'd send a cheque for £0.00, so that's what I did, and no more trouble.

However, you'd think it ought to be possible for a human being to TELL the system to stop.  GIGO, eh?

I think that it could be argued that bureaucracy is the greatest art form of the past century. I hope that we can come up with something better this time around.
