Letter received from Complaint Dept at Walmart.
Dear Mr. Samples:
Over the past six months, you have been causing quite a commotion in our Lawton store. We cannot tolerate this type of behavior and, as a result, will ban your entire family from shopping in any of our stores if even one more incident occurs. We have documented all incidents on our video surveillance equipment.
Three of our clerks are currently attending counseling from the trouble you have caused. All complaints against you have been compiled and are listed below.
Mr. Wally Brown
President and CEO
WalMart Complaint Department

This is apparently a serious problem in many department stores, only the customers don't yell, and they don't bother with the toilet paper. |

That would explain the odd Tie-Dye fashion trend I've been seeing.
Personally I thought it looked like sh*t. |

She will probably pick 3 or 4 of those and tell you it's happened.

You should add, buy some womens thongs, leave, return and go to the bathroom and put them on and walk through the store, with only the thong on....oh, wait, that was my buddy and his friend in Nebraska.
They got arrested and made it on to Paul Harvey....Good...Day

I worked in a Salvation Army store that was on the main floor of their 4-storey rehab/shelter building, right in the downtown core (a block from a worse shelter and right next to the bridge many sleep under).
This was, unfortunately, not a terribly uncommon occurrence, nor was finding used needles or full ampoules of methadone. And the people complaining of the voices in their heads really WERE hearing them... |

John once got banned from our local store for walking up to the deli counter, where an assistant stood waiting, looking her straight in the eye and ringing the bell on the counter which was labelled "ring for assistance" ( obviously for when the counter wasn't manned). After about the fifth time they threw him out and he had to go back and apologise later as this was our main local grocery store!

the boyfriend of a colleague of mine hates IKEA. For real. When they're there, he wants to get out asap.
At the stores over there they have small info-desks, but normally nobody stands there. When they were shopping again, the phone of a info-desk rang. He picked up the phone, made a conversation like he really worked there, hung up and walked away as if nothing really happened.
I wasn't there, ofcourse, but every time I hear this story I ROFLMAO :D

A long time ago I used to work occasionally for two guys who traveled around conducting auctions, primarily of Native American artifacts/collectibles.
By the time the sale was over and we'd packed up, the only place open to eat (back then) was Dennys ... now one of these guys had a time limit, and if there wasn't coffee on the table within about 45 seconds of the time we'd sat down, he'd just calmly walk behind the counter and bring the pot and cups to the table himself ... |

ROFLMAO - that was too funny.
I only got banned from one store - and that was when I was about 13. Me and a friend were in the Hudson's elevator, as was an old lady. When we got in between floors my friend looked over and said "did you hear that? I think this things is gonna crash!" And then I pulled the inner doors open. The old lady damn near had a heart attack. We expected to see the walls of the elevator shaft - but timing had it that when the doors opened we were about 2 1/2 feet above the floor....with a Hudons's employeee standing right there. lol We were escorted out of Hudson's and told to never return.

| Because of my friends when I was growing up, the old peeople (The greeters) chase you down and make you put a sticker on the item you are returning. My 2 friends would go and pick a VCR up off the shelves (They did this more than once) and they would take it to the return desk, and they would give them the money for returning it. After they got caught, they had their pictures in the store, not to let them in. Only people I know that get banned. |

Dang I thought Denny's was self serve, I thought that was their normal way of doing business. Last Denny's I visited they would not allow substitutions on any meals. Then the next three choices they didn't have cause they were out. Finally our group of six ordered, three of the meals were completely different becasue they had to substitute almost everything ... without even coming back and asking if it was ok. Last visit from at least those six guests. |
