Scream-a-thon

Tonight's screamfest was brought to us by one insanely out of control costumer.

If you go to a store and find out that you cannot combine coupon offers you might be disappointed, but would you yell at the employee using language that would get you an "R" rating from the MPAA?

The first line at the bottom of the coupon says, "Limit one coupon per costumer per visit." You can't get much clearer than that, folks.

I was just glad that there weren't any children in the store to hear that. The way this woman treated my coworker was completely uncalled for. We don't print up the coupons, the corporation does. The coupons clearly state that you can't use more than one at a time. We've also been told by both the manager and the owner of our store that we can only accept one coupon for each purchase. Not that difficult to understand. This is not an uncommon rule. Obviously this woman was trying to make E look bad, but she was acting like a total "witch with a capital B." *g* The only person who looked bad was herself and everyone in the store was just kind of looking at each other snickering, only it was a little scary for minute.

When she finally stamped out of the store she screamed that she would never set foot in the store again, like that was a threat or something. I wanted to break out in a hallelujah chorus. We're the most successful DD/BR in the area, what do we need her for? We have plenty of nice costumers, thank you very much.

Later...
