Did you check the invoices for your orders in your account at the B&N website? That's where the deducted penny charges usually show up (not always for all the books, it seems).

In any case, I also got hit with what I suspect are the same 60+ unrefunded penny charges as koland's last year, when they had all those McGill-Queen's University Press academic freebies.

I didn't bother contesting the charges since they added up to less than a dollar and I was okay letting them have less than a buck for what I suspected were glitch freebies (unless MGQU was having some sort of Kaplan-like launch promotion) and also it would have probably eaten up more of my time than it was worth to try and get my money back.

I did go and contact them when they charged me for one of the Free Fridays promo books which said $0.00 on the product page, but 5.xx after taxes on the confirmation screen.
