$2,000 Pizza

Let’s talk about the dangers of buying a pizza. Katie Boucher shows us you can get more than heartburn from a pie — you can also go broke.
The AP reports that the Connecticut woman was mistakenly charged $2,600 for her $30 pizza, an oopsie that a clerk quickly voided but that still cost Boucher $230 in overdraft and late fees.
Boucher said her bank told her it would take up to 10 days before the debit card overcharge, which occurred last week at Amano’s Pizza in Bristol, would be refunded. Owner Von Manolitsis signed some forms that helped reduce that time to 4 days.

Still there were those fees. Boucher says Manolitsis offered to pay her back — in pizza. Better be some darn good pizza.
