This kid seems a lot more responsible than I was when I was in high school.
Taking about manipulating the URL parameters... yeah, I used that trick to apply discount codes way back in the day. The web form wouldn't accept them, but if you bolted them on to the URL after that step in the checkout process, they'd blindly get applied to your cart anyway. Found one for like 95% off a CD, and used it on a laptop at BestBuy. 15 year-old me thought he was really smart, but mostly he was just a vandal and a thief.
