I just wanted to share this.
Yesterday I went to Target and I saw an elderly woman grabbing the Usos. It looked like she was shopping for things on a list. So as im standing there I see her grab one Jimmy Uso, and another Jimmy Uso. I didnt say anything. But I did start thinking, somewhere some kid is going to get two Jimmy Usos. And then I started thinking, I wonder how many other people have made that mistake?
I know when I bought my Usos, I looked at the packages more than twice to make sure I wasnt getting two of the same guy.

Probably happens a lot. Feel bad for the same parents buying stupid repackaged stolen figures.
Back to the point, I would have said something to make sure she wanted two Jimmies especially since she's an older lady.

My very first wrestling figure purchase (at the age of 5) was a Hasbro ring and a series 1 Hulk Hogan. My mom didn't want my brother to feel left out so she let him pick a figure as well...the exact same Hulk f'n Hogan!

If I'm being honest, I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference. I know it's in the tats, but I've never bothered to learn because I think they're about as interesting as paint drying most weeks.

I agree, ALL THE EFFORT IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN to point that out to an old lady must have been to much. Pretty lazy imo bud. But you wanted to respect her privacy when possibly buying two of the same fig. Good thing you don't WORK there. Jesus, I'm sure she would have appreciated you being "nosey" INSTEAD OF HAVING TO MAKE TRIP BACK TO THE FREAKIN STORE. LA-ZY. This was an awful story my friend lol To sum it all up "I saw an old lady possibly making a big mistake and didn;t bother to help her." That is a story I would have kept to myself.

Whoa there, buddy, you're getting a little worked up. Your grandma didn't happen to give you two Jimmy Uso figures today by any chance did she?

I think Uso A has face paint on the right side and Uso B has face paint on the left side. Or vice versa.

I sort of understand where OP is coming from. Sort of.
I pay a large amount of attention to figures I buy, considering all the QC errors nowadays so I prob wouldn't make this mistake

You and I have different ideas as to what a big mistake is. To me a big mistake is when im at work and I deliver the wrong pallets to the wrong store. Or when I thought my inlaws would only be staying a couple of days and not a couple of weeks. To me buying the wrong 20 dollar toy is a mistake sure, but not a big mistake. Target will be there tomorrow, you can always go back and make a return. On the other hand if I was a nosy guy and said something, that old woman could have snapped at me and told me to mind my business. And then I'd be the one looking like a jerk, that's not going to happen.

Back to the point, I would have said something to make sure she wanted two Jimmies especially since she's an older lady. feel the same on both points. Especially on the repacked figs. I don't want the OP to feel too bad, but yeah, it would have been easy to be a good citizen. So what if you were wrong and she did want two, most people would he grateful for the intention. (and if they weren't well then chalk one up to them having the problem, but knowing you did the right thing)

"If you see something, say something".
This is why I only wanted the Usos as a Battle Pack. Still can't tell them apart though. My Target recently decided to restock their Elites and by that I mean The Usos and Kane and as I was looking at them on all the pegs I couldn't tell you if they had the same number of each guy or if they were all the same guy or what. I was Uso-blinded.
