It happened to me too, while I was trying to find the domain name for the new project. It was free and the next day it wasn't.

But, what godaddy does with the domain they registered? Do they try to sell it to you for an exorbitant price? What's their deal?

That's what I'm thinking as well. You'd think that's counter to their business model to keep on buying domains.
