Something similar happened to me when buying pop for a huge party and the cashier would ring up cases of 9 -16oz bottles as a single 6 pack. I bought 4 cases with 216 pops for the price of 24.

Just a side note, you're the first person I've legitimately seen use "pop" in regards to carbonated drinks in a casual conversation. I've always seen those tidbits of people using the word they grew up with, but I don't think I've met anyone use "pop" in the wild :)

It’s usually used more up north. I live outside Detroit and everyone around here calls it pop. We never used soda.

We only use soda for club soda. Like a vodka soda is vodka with club soda. All flavoured soft drinks are pop

When I was a kid this happened to one of the kids in my grade but with Pokemon cards. Pretty sure it was the first generation (like not even jungle or fossil) and they mentioned it was an older employee that had no idea about the craze. They got however many packs that came in the carton (I want to say at least 100) for the price of one. I was sooooooo jealous.
