Prayer Request Why do some store clerks tell you the final price in pennies? - Page 3

**RealSNR** · 07-26-2013, 01:08 PM

Like, if my final total is $15.43, one of these assholes will say, "That'll be 1,543 pennies!"

What if I actually paid for that item with 1,543 pennies? He wouldn't appreciate it. He'd say, "How about you just give me a 20 and I'll give you change?" Also, when he said that he wouldn't say, "How about you just give me a 2,000-penny bank note?"

I went back and forth with one lady and she was insisting on it so I said 'Fine. 555-555-5555'. WTF. Just ring me up bitch.

it is illegal in many states to ask customers for a phone number or zip code

I HATE this shit. Every time I go into PetCo here's how it goes"

Clerk: Hi, how are you?
Me: I'm doing well, and you?
Clerk: Good. *beep/scan*. will this be all today?
Me: Yep
Clerk: Do you have a PetCo pals reward card?
Me: Nope.
Clerk; would you like to sign up for one (followed by all the 'benefits' of having one)
Me: No, that's ok.
Clerk: Really? You could save a lot of money.
Me: Really, I'm ok
Clerk: (disappointed in my refusal) well.....ok. But, I'm just going to put the sign up form in the bag in case you change your mind.

for the record- my wife has one, and I seriously can not tell you of a single time where the 'rewards' car has effected the price of ANYTHING we've bought there in 10 years. Not ever exaggerating.

**ptlyon** · 07-26-2013, 02:17 PM

When they do that to me I say "Thanks, but I enjoy my credit." And then rape them.

Shit like that makes me want to go shoot a hooker in the neck.

Most places that want a phone number you can just use (area code)-867-5309 it's in most store systems these days as long as you don't sing it they probably won't even notice it's Jenny's number.
