Oh boy.
Friend went to *al *art to get a cake. Not only did the bakery manage to mess-up the spelling of 'Summer,' forcing him to wait until it was corrected, THIS happened at check-out.
You know how there's only 1 line to buy tobacco at? Well, he needed tobacco and thought it was no big deal that there was just 1-middle-aged woman at the register in front of him.
WRONG!
She was there with 4-BINDERS OF COUPONS, plus the flyers for every CVS, Walgreens, Price Rite, etc. in the area. Not only was she just at that moment matching her coupons to her purchases, but if she couldn't find the flyer ad to price match a product, she was also ON THE PHONE calling each store to find the best price. According to another employee, she had already been monopolizing that register for 1.5 hours. My friend asked for a manager and asked the manager if there was any way for him to check-out but still purchase tobacco. The Manager told him no, tobacco could only be purchased at that register. My friend checked-out without his tobacco, but point blank told that woman that it was rude of her to tie-up the only register capable of making tobacco sales and for not being prepared when she came to the register. The woman claimed that she was 'told' specifically to go to that register - while behind her the crazed-looking cashier was shaking her head 'No Way!' Friend ended-up making an extra stop for his tobacco fix.
This is something inexcusable that Management should not have let happen!
