Another retail rant...VERY close to having a meltdown

[K9karen]

You did good, Donna. I think your tears were a good outlet for your frustration. Please don't let the jacka$$s ruin your day. I've taken phone abuse (oops-disconnected) as well as in your face abuse when I worked parttime retail. Never again, I tell ya, never again. Too many scars on my tongue from biting it.

I LOVE Hallmark stores. The workers are so accommodating and nice-at least where I go. Just think, no coupons, no hassels. Good luck! I'll keep all the digits crossed for you!(I've never seen anyone return a card, have you?)

Well, I wouldn't say, no coupons, no hassles. The one thing I hate about Hallmark is when you get the preferred customer coupon from them (after purchasing a set amount of their products) and say it is worth 4.00 and your card is 3.99, they say you can't use it unless your purchase if over the amount of the coupon. I say, that's okay, forget about the penny, and they say, no we can't honor it.

Personally that one burns me up. I certainly don't take it out on the clerk, but it is one of the most irritating company policies I've run into. What they want is for you to buy another card in order to collect on the coupon that constitutes a *free one*.
