If you ever wanted to know what a $42.00 Pepsi tastes like, just ask Marianne Anderson.

Same as a Pepsi that cost $2.00.

It was a lesson Anderson had no desire to learn when she went to Target on

Monument Road

last week.

Police say when Anderson paid for a Pepsi with a debit card, it was Brittany Williams, 20, that rang up the sale.

She acted like there was a problem with the receipt, like it wasn't going to print so I told her no big deal. Its $2.00. I don't need a receipt.

So Anderson left not realizing that her sale hadn't been closed. Police say Williams used the card reader to get back $40.00 cash Anderson's card. Something this shopper just happened to notice the next day.

I was shocked. You never think about having to have a receipt but when I got my statement and noticed I had a withdrawal I was upset.

Anderson says she went right back to Target and got her money back. That's when the store says they investigated Williams and found that she had scammed at least eighteen other people the same way, pocketing more than $1000.

We spoke to Target who issued this statement:

Information security is a top priority at target. We are committed to protecting the confidential information of our guests and team members. We have partnered with law enforcement as needed during their investigation of this situation.

Anderson plans she'll do her part to make sure this doesn't happen again.

I make sure I have a receipt and then everything is going through the bank OK.
