This kind of thing happens to me all the time. Even when I try to be resourceful there is always someone who gets the same thing at half the price I paid. I have movies that I paid $15 for, thinking I was getting an amazing deal, only to see them in the 2/$10 bin at the drugstore nowadays.
I used to joke that business people must follow me around and wait until I, personally, bought one at full price as a signal to put something on sale.
