Black Friday? Never Again.
11 years ago
So my husband and I decided to leave the child at home and go to walmart because they had such an awesome deal on a Samsung Galaxy S4 In the papers for the black friday deal. So we do what we are supposed to and get there almost 2 hours before 8pm. Walmart is packed fuller than flies on sh&*&t. We say okay, no problem, I will go in the store and my husband will go find a place in the grass to park. Still, no problems. I go into walmart and push my way past hundreds of people and go looking for an associate to figure out what line I was supposed to be in for the phone. I get ignored. Still, no problem I just to the next one......ignored....next one.....ignored.......next one......ignored.........
I finally end up asking another customer who got there before me and was able to figure out what line the phones are gonna be sold to. And then it turned out I was like the 5th person in line. Great! And then after y husband meets me back there he gets on his phone and looks up the phones on the walmart website and sees an even cheaper phone for a Samsung Galaxy S3 for half the price of the S4. Even better! So we get the boxes you are supposed to pick up and take them to the register to get the phone. Well First they wouldnt price match the phone that isnt even on the black friday list and I am not paying almost $300 for a phone. So we pushed our way through the masses to leave the store and once I get home I call corporate office and I quote "I am so sorry, but the Store manager makes that decision." ........ok so then I call the store manager at my walmart. And this is how it went:
Store Manager: Do you have any idea what day this is?
Me: Yes I do and I understand that you are very busy, but (recount whole story here)
Store Manager: Let me go see and call you back.
Me: Ok
3 HOURS LATER
Me: Hi, I called earlier about a phone....
Assistant Store Manager: Yes I have your information here, let me go ask and call you back.
Me: Again?
1 HOUR LATER
Store Manager: I dont know what they told you, but we do not have that phone in stock currently.
Me: You didnt even have the phone that WAS advertised in stock! (A customer was complaining about it in the store, she was going to buy 5 Galaxy S4's)
Manager: I dont know what to tell you. Have a nice night.
Phone goes dead.
WHAT THE HELL WALMART?
Needless to say, never again will I do black friday EVER again.
Its pretty flippin' hilarious, looking at it all from a satirical point of view. XB
I dunno. I just don't. Human nature, I suppose. XP
I'm very glad to be a shep-coon by nature.
Very happy to be relating to a cheetah-wolf over how dumb the whole B.F. thing is. <3
Very, very happy indeed...
Well this cheetah-wolf thinks that black friday is so very overrated and unneeded. You can get the same prices online or cheaper most of the time anyway. And I am very glad this cheetah-wolf could make the shep-coon happy <3
