¿No te dieron un recibo cuando lo pagaste?
Didn't they give you a receipt when you paid for it?

El recibo no tiene la cantidad correcta. El televisor está en oferta. Por consiguiente, yo pagué demasiado (dinero).

(Do I need to say "dinero" there, or can I just leave the "demasiado" as the last word in the sentence?)

Very well, Lou Ann!

And you are right, "dinero" can be either used or not.

You could also say "Por consiguiente, (yo) pagué de más"

(Yo) compré un televisor/una televisión a Walmart ¡y perdí el recibo!
Se descompuso y ahora estoy triste por que Walmart no me lo cambiará.

Gracias por me ayudaste ayudarme, estoy aprendiendo mucho por que siempre () lo enseñas bien. *blushing* Thank you.

"Estúpido" is a stronger word in Spanish than in English... we'd rather use "tonto" (foolish).

"Se descompuso" = "it broke", it doesn't work anymore.

"Walmart won't change it..." : yes, that's correct; I won't get a restitution.
