You can still use your coupon

[Redhead17]

A lady walks up to my cash register with 2 items, a scale and a candle.

SC: *Hands me a coupon* "I want to use it on the scale"

Me: I'm sorry but you cant use this coupon on the scale, but you can use it on the candle.

SC: You have got to be F#@*ing kidding me *Leaves items and coupon the the counter and leaves without another word.

Me and my coworker look at each other like what just happened.

SC: *Comes back into store* Snippy voice "I forgot my coupon" *Leaves in a huff.

I've gotta ask. What was the coupon for?

"Buy One candle stick, get one removed from your ass for free"

It was 15% off one item. In big bold print it said "Excludes Electric Items" the scale was electric.

Ah, the classic "But I want the discount on the expensive one!" problem.

lol. A classic indeed. Except...

Leaves items and coupon the the counter and leaves without another word....Leaves in a huff.

She didn't hang around and harangue RH, coworkers, management, corporate, etc. to get her way. Kind of a nice change of pace. Score one for our side!

she could have put the items back where she found them!!!

Nah, straight out the door is best. Minimal SC contact that way.

She could have but in my experience they NEVER do that. Especially since they most often consider the problems which lead to them not being able to buy the items the fault of the store or employees somehow. So by their logic, they were going to buy the items, it's our fault they can't so we can just put the shit back on the shelves ourselves. I've been told this a few times by SCs.
