I did this once and got a 50% better offer. When I went back to my boss to break the news, he said, "I can match that. Why don't you stay here?"
All I could think about later was, "WTF?? If you are willing to pay me 50% more just to keep me, why didn't you pay me this already? I wouldn't have gone looking."
I started counting the years I worked for relative peanuts...
On a side note, surprisingly good advice in this thread. Not the usual OT thread drift. I'm impressed.
