They're out for blood now
and we've still got three weeks until Christmas.
Had a woman come up to me today asking me where the trial-size deodorants were. I showed her. She looked over our selection and huffed "Is THIS all you have?"
Ummm, yes it is. "Really? This is all you have?"
Yes, and believe it or not, we actually have a decent selection of trial-size toiletries compared to other stores.
"You don't have the brand I want!" and she stomped away.
Ummm, gee, if you really must have your own, special, precious brand of deodorant, and only that brand of deodorant, on your travels and we don't have it in a trial-size stick, then it would seem your choices are to:
A). buy a full-size stick of that deodorant, which won't take up that much more room in your toiletries kit/suitcase/Maulmart bag than the trial-size stick would, or
B). stink
Somehow I think I know what her choice was.
And then later, I get somebody else haranguing me on the one and only breadmaker we sell. You see, she's been watching it for an entire year already, waiting to see if the price will go lower than the $69.99 sale price we usually sell it for, and it's never gone any lower, and instead of going elsewhere to buy a breadmaker she's going to stand in my store and yell at me about it.
Like I have any control over the prices. Either buy the breadmaker here, buy it someplace else, or scrape out that taint of yours and bake your own bread. Is this really so hard to understand?
Seriously, people can just go cram it with chestnuts. Preferably roasted on an open fire first.

It IS all our fault, after all.
and need to buy more.
