Took it back!

November 17th, 2009 at 01:23 pm

The older I get, the more tired I get of being ripped off. When I use to buy something, (anything) and there was something wrong with it, I just put up with the problem. I don't do that anymore.
I bought some oreo cookies last week and when I opened them on sunday, they were all broken up. I took them back to the grocery store and asked for a new package of cookies. No problem even tho I did not have a receipt. I did that a few months ago with some mints I bought. They were all melted. I have taken back sour cream that had gone bad. From now on, receipt or not, I take it back! It is my hard earned money, not Ingles!!
I did have 2 no use gas days ($4)and 3 one dollar bills left over. Plus I got a $3 pinecone check in the mail yesterday. That gives me a total of $10 to add to my challenge money.
Prev. total $15,276.00
today 10.00
new total $15,286.00

    Pinecone money? What's that? We just moved into a new home with beautiful pinecones! Are you saying I could earn a few bucks for them?

    No, pinecone is the name of a survey company. They pay $3 every time you do a survey for them. Sorry if I confused you.

    Funny you should mention this. I just had to go back 3 times to the store to return things this past week! They were: a sponge mop (handle to squeeze sponge did not operate), shoes for my son (the inside soles were bumpy), and a towel (edging fell apart after first wash).

    I'm glad that you took the damaged goods back! That leads companies and stores to take some responsibility for their products, rather then getting away with shabby merchandise, intended or not. Bringing it back gives some insurance for the next customer, as well!
