(I'm not into cussing and no way condone it.. It takes alot to bring that out of me..)
Last night rather - time has flown by.. been busy all night and morning now...
Because the system would not scan the $1.50 off 8 beech nut baby foods, I left all of it sitting there,
after taking a lecture from a teenage girl of how I could only use one coupon (had 2).. then it would
not even scan..
I told her, It says per purchase.. I told her take 8 off and I will get back in line and PURCHASE the
other 8.. here comes Manly Man, (guess boss) he tells me he will ALLOW it this time, but gonna call
main people or whatever.. then starts punching in numbers.. gives me my total..
I'm like NO, that is what the total was.. you didn't take off anything..
I go off the handle by now..
Asked his name (Tom Tucker - like on Family Guy OMG)... I'm cussing at him and told him, I'm calling
and contacting his main office... I left it all there as I was leaving, he had the nerve to say..
Please leave - I turned to his face and stood there, YES, I am leaving and cussed some more.. he
said, ma'am I have customers.. I said, I will never set foot in that store again..
Had me a major moment..
well, I guess it was the full moon or the fact I'm sick of being treated like a criminal or whatever
reason.. I'm menopausal and frankly everything sets me off.
The guy before me handed them a $15 coupon for a turkey no problem.. I was so impressed.. when my turn
comes, I am a criminal for cashing 2 coupons at once.. hmmmmm
edited to add: sure wanted the baby foods.. would have been around 21¢ a jar for my grandbaby.

1|1|Geez, two simple $1.50 coupons? What the heck? And we all have our days when things irritate us more than others, or our patience is thin.......|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|08:14:53|11/14/2008|
"Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy." 2|1|I'd go back and do the 8 at a time, get what you came for|glennie58|glenn_scott@alumni.ksg.harvard.edu|09:12:25|11/14/2008|
and don't let them get you down, wish I had the nerve to curse some of them, they treat you so bad, and they deserve it... I have had cashiers act like every single coupon takes money out of their pocket personally... some of them are such deliberate creeps... of course I would go when these two particular jerks were not working... lol 3|2|Joy is right.. why wouldn't they act any better, not like grand theft... he made me cry.. then I went off... and to top it off a few months back when they had the $1 TP I took $1 cpns and used all 20 at once for 20 free pks.. no one ill word from any of those ladies...|car_mont|car_mont@hotmail.com|09:17:24|11/14/2008|
PLEASE INCLUDE - USER NAME AND YOUR OFFER if we are in a trade. 4|1|My guess is.... if it scans...they accept it. If it doesn't...they go blank|Abbicca|Abbicca@bellsouth.net|13:09:14|11/14/2008|
That's what it seems like to me anyway. Then they try to think up "logical" reasons WHY it didn't scan. Which, of course, means YOU did something wrong. Cuz we all know that the scanner is a god...it makes no mistakes.
I'd guess the coupons were coded oddly....and since they're a cheap product... obviously the coupon exceeded the price of any 1 of them....hence the coupon didn't scan. I've never heard of a coupon actually coded for 8 (or a machine smart enough to add so many items together and compare it to the coupon value). Just try to get a cashier with a little common sense... and if you find him/her... try to always go to them! It's not worth the headaches.
Best of luck
