Where Did Courtesy Go To?
On Tuesday I went into a major drug store to buy track pants. According to the sales ad ran in our local newspaper they were on sale for $5.99 a pair or two pair for $10.00. I went into the store and picked out a pair along with a hooded jacket. I went to the check-out to only to find no one at the register. I waited about ten minutes and went back to the pharmacy to see if I could check out there. There were four people ahead of me who were getting their prescriptions filled. There were two people working back there and both of them were working on prescriptions. I guess it takes two people to fill each prescription. After waiting about ten minutes back without being waited on I once again made my way up front to find there was still no one working the front registers. I could hear paper rustling sounds from the office which looks out over the front of the store but the man inside made no effort to have a cashier help me. At this point I got angry and starting walking through the store looking for the cashier who I found stocking the make-up display. I asked her if she could check me out and she stated she did not know I had been at the check-out. When she checked me out the track pants rang up at full price instead of the sale price. I had two wait ten more minutes for her to make sure I was not lying about the sale price. The price was at last verified and I left the store. Because I was not able to try on the track pants they are too large for me. I could go back and swap them for a smaller pair but after what I went through just to buy them I decided to just give them away. I will not be going back there in the future to buy anything; no matter what the price may be.
