Ok, I can understand thinking that a set of sweatpants and a sweatshirt was $19.99 if the sign said "sweatpants AND sweatshirt" but what I can't understand is that you didn't say anything when being rung up and paid way more than intended for fear of embarrassment. Why would you be embarrassed by that? Money is money and if the sign said one thing and you were being charged another, you had every right to question the price. If the price wasn't what you wanted to pay, that's when you should've altered your transaction where you either put some things back or don't buy anything at all.
And if you don't have the heart to tell your daughter that money doesn't grow on trees and that she can't have everything she wants, that's no one's fault but your own. I am a mother and I'm not filthy rich. If my son had his way, he'd wear every designer brand out there, own every game system made under the sun and would like an Escalade to cruise around in. Unfortunately for him, I can't afford everything and he has learned that we have to live within our means and that means we can't get everything we want.
To make a long story short, the time to say something was when you were making the purchase. You didn't and you purchased the clothing. You agreed to the price when you paid for it and I don't think you deserve a hefty coupon. If you want a refund, return some of the clothing.
