So yesterday was the first day of our Super Duper Uber Stupendous Lowest Prices of the Season sale, and it wasn't really sucky, just busy.
Just a few stories:
Flawyer Heard From
One of our big specials was a certain kind of storage tote priced at 2 for $8.88. They were flying out the door and we were completely out of the totes by 8 pm. Store manager asked me to check and see if we had any more in the back, which we did not.
So of course I had to get flagged down by this moron:
Customer: Where are the storage totes that you have on sale for 2 for $8.88?
Me: I'm sorry, those are sold out. They've been selling really fast all day.
Customer: Well, can't you check the backroom or something?
Me: ...okay. I'll be right back.
I went to the backroom for a couple drinks of water and to BS with the truck crew.
Me: (returning) I'm sorry, we have no more in the backroom.
Customer: Why do you always advertise things and not have them in stock? That's false advertising if you ask me! I hope Kohls puts you out of business!
Y'know, if I had a dollar for every time somebody accused us of false advertising, I'd have...all these dollars.
FAAAARRRRTTTTTT...giggle giggle...
While filling things from autopulls yesterday, I noticed a pack of teenaged girls wandering around aimlessly talking and giggling about stupid shit. Or something.
Then I saw them head into one of the toys aisles and heard many fart noises coming from said aisle.
Turned out they were playing with the whoopie cushions we have for sale in the $1.99 novelty toys aisle.
Oh well, it lightened my mood.
A really fun game to play:
Next time you're in a store and you're wearing open-back shoes like clogs, kick them off your feet and see how far you can make them fly down the aisle.
Doesn't this sound like a rip-roaring good time to you? Well evidently another group of preteen girls thought it was. I had to ask them to stop after they nearly hit a customer in the back with one of their flying shoes.
There isn't enough for young teens to do in this town.
