your F****** competitor has it. Language Sorry

[Rapscallion]

Cranky? It's a small-selling line of theirs, as per the link provided earlier. It appears to be one that's very much a niche market.

In my experience, many items such as that are discontinued due to low sales after a while spent trying to make it sell. I bet that would entertain the SC in question.

Well, it would entertain me to watch his reaction...

The competitor has it? Well then, genius, why in the name of Zeus's butthole didn't you go to the competitor that you says has it?

fuckwad.

"But they're all the WAY ACROSS TOWNNN!!!!!! You're RIGHT HERRRREEEEE!! That would mean walking all the way back out to my car, and driving all the way over there!!! It's EASIER for me to get it here, so you MUST have it!!"

Oh yeah.

That conversation never gets old, and after hearing it off and on over the course of twenty-five odd (very odd) years, it never starts to make a lick of sense either.

All you'd have to do to keep your customer happy would be to fire up that rectally-mounted replicator and produce the desired item from the Anus of Holding.

Do they make a TARDIS ass?

i think some pineapples would work there

Oh dear, he forgot to say the magic words, "But I neeeeed it!" that instantly make it appear on the shelves or in the back room.

I've heard the words "But *your competitor* has the product I want/has more staff/has the product cheaper/doesn't make me queue/insert whine here" so many times, and each time I have to struggle so as not to make the obvious statement, "So why don't you bloody well shop there, then?"

[cheese]

I did a weekly shop at our main competitors recently, just to see what was so amazing about it, that amde every customer say "How much! They do it for X at *Competitor*!". And sure, it was a bit cheaper than us. But that was about it. The staff were just dreadful. Apparently they treat their staff really poorly there from what I've been told by someone who used to work there. And I think that makes a lot of difference. People come back to our store because the staff enjoy working there (in general) and good service is worth a lot more than a few pence off each item I think.

And on a side note.......

WTF is white wine worch ???

I haven't read the rest of the posts...But I have NEVER heard of that crap...

PS: I like to cook..

[Lace Neil Singer]

Yeah, I went to *Competitor* once, just to see what all the fuss is about, and about the only difference is that their stuff is slightly cheaper, and they have better stock control. But it's bloody difficult to get there. And the traffic around it is terrible.

Hey, listen, I know that my Brownies have never won a Super Bowl, that's because they were cheated! CHEATED I TELL YOU! That field goal @ the old Cleveland Stadium (when Kosar was our quarterback and Shotheimer sp? was our coach) - against the Denver Broncos - that field goal was good - EVERY body saw it - we all sat there and watched the ball fly through the goal posts be-a-U-tifully and we all broke out into cheers - OUR BROWNIES ARE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL - and then we see it - the Refs walking out with the "no goal" signal. WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! WE ALL SAW IT! IT WAS GOOD! WHAT ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT! THAT PLAY IS STILL PLAYED VERY OFTEN AS A QUESTIONABLE CALL! IT WAS GOOD! GOOD I TELL YOU!!!!!

OH, SAD, SAD DAY IN BROWNS HISTORY!

There there.

I cringe whenever anybody mentions "4th and 26" to me.

Worcestershire sauce is made with vinegar, corn syrup, molasses and a few other things.

And rotting anchovies. You forgot the rotting anchovies. Believe me, if you ever go near the Lea and Perrins factory, you will NEVER forget the rotting anchovies....

White wine worcester sauce. What a peculiar idea. And what a waste of Sauternes.

[ladylabyrinth]

FWIW, I have bought and used Lea and Perrin's White Wine Worcestershire Sauce, and it is fantastic on chicken or fish, especially the heavier fishes like salmon, tuna and swordfish. But alas, it is difficult to find these days, mostly because so many people had the same reaction as everyone else here, mainly "White Wine Worcestershire? WTF?"

If you can find it, try it. If you can't, don't sweat it. I think it's ahead of its time.

[chainedbarista]

i've heard of it, but have only seen it once since they've started selling it; it is uncommon and this guy is an ahole.

i'm sure his high end tailgate party (do those words even belong together??) was absolutely ruined because he couldn't get it from your store.

[toolbert]

Here you go:

upon looking at the product i noticed that there were two that were listed as new...and used...would someone really buy a used bottle of sauce?

[Ryu]

to answer your question, i dont remember where/how i saw it but i saw a post one time about on ebay or something used condoms being for sale so i would imagine anything used gets put up on ebay at some point

One thing you know about a Cleveland fan we love them no matter how bad they are doing. There's always next year...

No joke, Browns fans are passionate. In 1981 I was on the Rapid heading to the airport to meet someone when the Browns lost to Oakland & failed to reach the Superbowl (Coach had Sipe go for the TD instead of a winning FG, he threw an interception, IIRC). Ten gazillion drunk, furious Browns fans got on the train. Wasn't sure I'd make it off the train in one piece, it was a scary scene... but then Cleveland in general was a scary scene in the early '80s...
