Nintendo Museum may owe refunds for overcharges.
Customers at the Nintendo Museum's gift shop were overcharged for certain cookie sets and are now eligible for partial refunds.

So, check this out: the Nintendo Museum in Kyoto has been overcharging customers since the day it opened, and now they're offering partial refunds. If you bought any of the Cookie sets, like the Nintendo Museum Cookie set, Hikkonuki Pikmin Cookie set, or Animal Crossing: New Horizons Polvorón set, you might be owed some cash. They messed up the sales tax, charging customers 10% instead of the correct 8% for food items.
Now, I know what you're thinking: "How did no one catch this?" Honestly, it's because the overcharges were only about 30 yen (or 20 cents), which isn’t a big deal individually. But across the many customers they've served, that's a heavy hit! If you want your refund, just go to the Nintendo Museum website for a bilingual form. They’re owning up to it and making things right, so have a little faith in the process!
