Did you try calling Walmart?  Do they make courtesy refunds? Of course after you've switched the billing card back.
Thank you sometimes the most obvious things slip the mind. That was too easy

Details please.
When did you catch it? You were able to cancel them? They hadn't shipped  yet?

I got an email about a shipment coming. Didn't remember what it was. Clicked the link in tracking and saw that it was 3 items from my S&S. Frantically canceled all the other orders which B"H hadn't shipped yet aside from the handful of items that I actually wanted.

The ones that had shipped said that I could return them once they come but B"H they were all things I actually want.

PSA: It takes 3 clicks to cancel each order and it's faster if you open a few at a time in tabs so that you can do the other ones while each next page loads.

I opened my S&S list on one monitor and then searched for each item in my order history in the other monitor. Canceled all the extra orders from each item and repeated. Then waited a few minutes and refreshed the S&S page to review it again in case I missed any.

Saved from a dumb mistake. B"H
I was done my spending on my Biz Gold to get a 150K SUB.
I got a call from my AMEX account manager telling me that my deadline is days away, and I have $4200 more to spend.  ??
I spent just over $10K.  I needed to spend $15K!!!!
Whoo!  TYH!! for the account manger doing his job so well.

That may end up being a "dumb mistake".

Does this go into the Effective Tzedakah thread or the Due Diligence one?

It goes into the Posts that didn't receive enough likes thread.
