Guess, you just saved them >$10M of wrong orders ?

8. Today I figured out the problem. The granola company and the coaster company buy THEIR boxes from the same people I'm trying to by mine from. And the barcode scanners at @amazonca are picking up the old sticker - from the box company!

Unless a box of boxes costs less than they can sell a box of granola or coasters for, in which case this is the ultimate free money machine.
