The day I tried to buy a kit-kat

It's stuff like this that makes life so enjoyable.

Taking the p1ss out of customers is the only thing that makes a job in a shop tolerable.

Shop workers of the world unit!!

at the door

bouncer "do you have a regulas card?

bouncer "you cant drink here if you dont have a regulas card"
me "how do i become a regular if you wont let me in?"

And they wonder why their is a recession on. It's so bloody painful to buy any thing that i just can't be bothered. Mind you the bank balance is looking good. Plus no web shopping due to the posties not working.

It is pretty standard practice to require a signature at the very least when issuing a refund to a customer. And if the cashier had tendered an amount into the till, then issuing a refund is the only way to return money out of the till as you can only 'void' while the transaction is still live.
But I do agree that to ask for all of your details is a little OTT as it was a price discrepancy and not a return. Your initials on the refund slip should suffice, just on order to cover the money out of the till. We have had situations where this policy was not in place whereby operators were issuing bogus refunds and pocketing the money.

That'd be 60 million postcards then! Total joke. Lived in Poole/Bournemouth most of my life but not a regular/local without a card?? :roll:

THe co op seems to have gone loopy these days. Is is something to do with the fact they now have a shop at the end of every street?

I had a run in as the silly cow was convinced I couldnt buy two packs of paracetamol at the same time....

yep incase your going to use them to top yourself! they figure that by the time you walked around to enough shops to buy the required amount to do the job your too knackered or give up do the fustration of standing in the 5 items or less queue behind the polish couple with 6 kids and two trollys

Staff canteen in a certain art gallery on the south bank about 5 years ago:

My colleague with me standing beside him: Can I have a bananna please?

Canteen lady: We don't have any.

My mate: What about that one? (Points at lonely bananna in the fruit bowl.)

Canteen lady: You can't have it, it's wrong. (Picks up bananna and throws it in the bin.)

My mate and me: (Stunned silence.)

A wrong bananna indeed!
