  • I worked at JC Penney as a teenager 20ish years ago. One day we had a sale on Xmas socks- three pair for the price of two. Each pair of socks were $3, so with this deal you’d get them for $2 instead.

    This woman waited in the long-ass line and showed up with four pairs. I rang them up, $6 for the three pairs in the deal, and $3 for the fourth. She wanted the fourth pair for $2 as well. I explained that the deal was automatically stored in the register, and that it would only apply if she bought three more pairs.

    She lost her absolute shit at me, called me awful names, demanded to see a manager, and ultimately threw the socks at my face before storming out.

    That was over a $1 price difference, and she was one of the more tame customers. I imagine in the last couple decades it has become much worse









  • As someone from Alaska, this hurts! I live out of state currently so can’t speak for recent or upcoming, but when I was a kid larger bands would come through. Metallica, Kiss, Megadeth & Pantera (I went to those last two) etc. Basically, large bands with good pull. Although, Jewel was going to play once when she was huge but canceled because not enough tickets were sold (Kiss played that night/venue instead ⚡)
