I Have a Idea for Cutting Fuel Costs

Dear Peapod,

You just e-mailed me a summary of my “order.” It reads:

Subtotal: $0.00
Tax: $0.00
Delivery Fee: $9.95
Fuel Surcharge: $0.48
Total: $10.43

I agree fully that I’ve ordered nothing, so my subtotal and tax are correct. However, I request that you do not assess a fuel surcharge or delivery fee while not delivering anything.

Sincerely,
Shopping the Old Fashioned Way This Week

(No, they didn’t actually charge me anything; it was just a funny invoice.)
