Default Okay... I'm an A-Hole, but I was pissed

So... Saturday night, I run to the local Diamond Sham"stone"(wouldn't wanna really say the real name, but can you think of another name for a "stone"?) to buy a 6 pack of beer... Heinikin (sp?).

Anyway, I put the beer up with the $5.99 tag on it... and the guy takes like 2 minutes looking around. I'm like dude, I'm kinda in a hurry, can't you just ring it up?

He goes, "I'm looking for the price". I said, "Its right here... $5.99".

...after like another minute, I'm like..dude, I really gotta go here, whats the deal? He goes into this story how thats not the price, its really $7.99.

... Umm... no, it says $5.99. So, I go to the back and get another 6-pack (same kind).. See, this one is $5.99 too.

... He goes into some BS story how thats not the price. I grab another 6-pack (now I'm late, and getting pissed).. "No dude, its $5.99, now ring it up I gotta go". He gets an attitude and says he's going to charge me $7.99.

So, I proceed to bring as many 6-packs up to the front counter (customers are now waiting) as I can find that say $5.99... and say ALL of these are WRONG???!??

He goes into some bs story how they are mis-labeled and their "sale" is over (Since when is $5.99 for a 6-pack a SALE anyway! $7.99 is robbery!)

Anyway-- I get LOUDer at this point... and am like dude, its not my problem if its not on sale anymore... I mean if you have 1 mislabeled fine... but ALL of them.

Well, to make a long story...welll long... I paid the guy the $7.99 and left cuz I didn't have the time to goto another store, but I'm still PISSED off at "David" for that crap, and I want my $2.00 back. (Principle)

/end rant

I would be mad too. I wouldn't have left though....I would have made him get the manager for that. Too bad you were in a hurry.

On a side note....Have you ever been trying to buy an alcoholic item and they want to card someone in line with you?
