Haha, awesome story! So I went to Target tonight and they had the Hulk Marvel Legends exclusive marked down. I seriously considered buying it but then I noticed the bottom was completely missing (where the bar code is). My friend wanted to steal it but I said that was a stole idea. So we went to the clearance section and peeled a $2.99 sticker from some item and stuck it on. So when I went to pay they lady (an older lady) tried to scan it and I said "It's missing the bar code" and she was like "Oh well let me punch in these numbers" and I paid only $2.99 for it!
But it caught up to me; I took it out of it's package and the arm was completely broken. So I went to the other Target on the other side of town and I got a new one (with a bar code) and took it to customer service and told her "I bought this in the other Target, it was the last one, and it's missing it's bar code, here is my receipt" and she looked at me weird and said "It says on here Soccer Shorts" and I was like "really? Well that is how they sold it to me, like I said it was the only one, on clearance and missing the bar code at the bottom. They just entered in some numbers and gave me the price." and she was like "Oh, that's weird, okay." so she rung it up and I got a brand new one! It is a great looking figure. Bigger than the 2003 Hulks. It looks great on the shelf. I can't believe I got away with it too.
