This afternoon a woman came up with a whole bunch of cans of green beans, she wanted to price match them with HEB, which is selling them at 25 cents each. She had about 12 cans, but there's a limit of 4 of each kind at HEB, which means, she could only get 4 cans of green beans at that price. I told her I was going to go ask the manager if they would let her get more and I went and asked him and he said no, that we were going to enforce the limit. He also said to call him if I needed backup (Great manager!).
I went and found the ad and showed her how it said a limit of 4 and she started screeching: "I spend hundreds of dollars in this store!" (You and a couple hundred other people or more) "You say you price match, but you don't!" (We were giving her the same deal she could have gotten at the other store) and "You know I wouldn't be so angry if Wal-Mart's stock wasn't doing so well right now!" (ROFL, sure). She was also angry because I wouldn't let her get around the rule by breaking it up into different orders.
I told her she could come back and get four more tomorrow, she said she was going to come back later that night to another cashier and get them. So I made sure I went around to all the cashiers and CSMs and let them know her description and what she was going to try to do and told them not to let her have it. The salaried manager agreed with me.
I wish I could find out if she tried to come back and get it tonight.
One thing we did do a favor for her for is that the CSM had come over to back me up because she heard her screeching and the CSM pointed out to me that the woman was getting No salt added green beans and the ad was for regular green beans. I said we should let her slide on that one since it cost the same and she was already that upset, and the CSM agreed with me on that one.
So basically we were giving her a deal that she couldn't have gotten at HEB, and this was the thanks we got!
