I can really only hope a similar fate doesn’t befall this kid who seems to have made an honest mistake on @jujumaddison’s TikTok account.
It seems her dad handed her a $100 bill to pay for some groceries at the counter.

But the clerk doesn’t sweat it. A quick slice with the box cutter and the money is freed.
“There we go,” they both breathe with relief.
