cheat/steal/misuse is the key words... i didnt do any of those and still got a really good deal on the product as well as the service. So really my actions didnt really affect you or any other customer of att.
but dont flip out on the guy for trying to find a cheaper option. do you always go with the first price that is quoted to you... or do you shop around for the best price. do you not try to find different options that will give you the cheapest possible final price.
If there are 2 gas stations one with $2 a gallon and the other one with $3 a gallon... do you say ooo can I get the $3 gas please?
