Banning Walmart!
If I could I would post my face inside Walmart's walls and in BOLD type..."You will never see this face inside a WALMART." Sorry in advance to those who are in love with Walmart!
Here is the drama. I left home around 10 am with my 2 year old and decided to purchase air purifying plants for our family room. After 2 hours and 130 bucks later, I proceeded to walk out of Walmart with my overfilled cart and my two year old. Now I am 7 months pregnant so you can imagine what I looked like with my child literally holding me by my breasts! I pulled my minivan to the loading area and asked "Dan" for his help with the 50 pound soil bag. As he proceeded to load the soil I see this little man run up and tell me that "Dan" was loading the wrong soil. He told me that I paid 8.50 for the soil and in fact the one that was being loaded was 9 bucks. "Are you kidding me" were my words. I told him that I wanted the moisture control soil and that is what the cashier told me that she charged me for. Long story short they wanted me to go to the customer service area and make my exchange. I almost lost it! Why cant I just pay you 2 bucks for the difference and you leave the damn bag alone. But nope that did not satisfy them. I ended up just driving away without the soil because now it was time for me to pick my 4 year old from school. I called Walmart and told them that I was irritated, angry, and frustrated with my experience. The sad part was the lady at the customer desk was not understanding me. She kept on saying "What you returning".. I could tell by her accent that she was an Indian lady. Now people I am of Indian descent and I am not trying to make fun or anything..but dammit try to understand my point here. I ended up returning everything. I was not going to give them anymore business as they were just ridiculous and irrational! Why is it my fault that your cashier rang me up for the wrong thing. And are you going to make me unload/load/reload a 50 pound bag all for 50 cents. I understand the principle but don't make me go from one end to the other with 2 kids and 2 carts! Make you system efficient and allow the Garden Center to correct their transactions!
I walked out of the doors of Walmart and I knew that was the end to our relationship! I will never return again. They almost caused me to have contractions and give birth!

Sounds typical. Man, you did have a rough one there! I am not a fan of Walmart either-did you ever take a good look around at those who flock there and then realize that you are now one of them? LOL! While I still go for the lowest price on things like toiletries, I try to stay clear. I'll go to Target...
ReplyDeleteSusan I thought you had left a comment but for some reason I am unable to read it. I did however read it in my hotmail inbox. I used to go to Walmart to buy shaving blades, deodrant, etc but NO MORE. I will no longer step in there. They drove me complelety insane!

ReplyDeleteSo sorry you had a bad day at the WalMart. You made me laugh so hard I snorted. I hope one day you can look back and laugh too! Laughter is the best medicine. However trust me, I have done the push the cart with a child hanging onto my boobs and it is not easy! That is probably why I laughed so hard, I could really picture it!!
