Well, today I decided to go and spend some of my birthday money. There was only one thing I really wanted: a Nintendo Wii.
So, me and my dad go on a day trip to find the best offer. We walked past a store, and saw a large sign "Nintendo Wii's In Stock HERE!!!" We went inside, had a look, and saw a really good deal where you got the console and a couple of games.
So, I go up to the register, very happy, until the cashier spoke.
Cashier: Oh, I'm sorry, we don't have any in stock at the moment.
Me: Oh...(sad eyes)...oh well, never mind.
So, I was a little annoyed that the store had signs everywhere saying they had them in stock. It was just after 9am, the store had just opened, so I doubted that they had sold any before I arrived. But what was I to do? She couldn't exactly pull one out of her ass for me.
Dad was not impressed.
Dad: You have signs! The sign says you have them! Where are they?
Me: Dad its OK, we'll just go somewhere else.
Dad: Fine, *to cashier* but you should take down those signs!
Me: Dad, I don't think it's her fault.
I go to put the dummy boxes back on the shelf.
Dad: Don't put them back! Just dump them! They said they had them in stock and they don't!
Felt so embarassed! Especially when he told me to dump all the boxes in the middle of the aisle. I just turned a year older, not a year younger.
But hey! I got my Wii, and its fantastic!
