Yesterday I went to Walmart to get these *extra special sheets* for my son. See I keep getting these fliers from the University, that he needs these extra special sheets. The cost is ridiculous. I mean really ridiculous. A little searching goes along way. I found the same darn ones at walmart for $7.50. I could buy 10 and still save from the price of 1 in the fliers. (YIKES!!!) well my trip was a bust, as I couldn't find them and inquiry with the staff was horrible. We kept calling and calling for assistance and no one would come. WHATEVER. I almost complained at the service desk but the line was too long. I'm a firm believer of voicing my complaint and walking out. I will not buy. Well darn it. Rules had to be broken. the kid needs sheets. (he wont use them properly but he WILL have them) I felt like punching that darn happy face of walmarts. I'm not violent, jeez it's just sheets LOL.
SO for revenge sorta... I came home and went to EBATES (more about ebates at the end) I got my sheets and my 2% cash back. AND free shipping as I made the order ship to store. HA. Sorry but some cashier is going to loose her job the more people do this. I work in retail, I know. I more Internet orders that come in take away from floor staff. Long story short. I have a little over 30 days to get him ready and I have a feeling ebates is going to be sending me a nice check this fall for all the shopping I'm about to do. Really why not? Ebates will pay me for stuff I was already going to buy. (smile)
