A Goodwill shopper is going viral after she discovered that the QR code on a price tag charged her more than the printed price. The woman, who goes by @kaybayes on TikTok, shared her experience in a TikTok video that has since been viewed over 2.9M times. The video was also reposted by the account @HustleBitch_ on X on February 23, 2026.
The shopper said she bought four items from her local Goodwill store. One of them was a men’s camo hoodie with a price tag that clearly said $6.79. The cashier scanned the QR code on the tag to ring it up. She did not type anything into the register manually. But when the shopper got home and looked at her receipt, the hoodie showed up as $10.09. That is a $3.30 difference on a single item.
