Having once been a retail manager, my guess would be that the individual
envelopes cost 54 cents, and the pack of them is $7.99. There¹s probably a
barcode on each envelope that scans in at 54 cents, and one on the outer
wrapping of the pack that scans at the whole-pack price. The cashier
probably scanned the wrong one and wasn¹t smart enough to notice.
