Ok so problem #1 and #2 was they wouldn't take one of my coupons for cereal because it didn't have a different # code.?!?! I was fine with it but wanted to find out what exactly the problem was. The supervisor was not very friendly/nice about it and while I was talking to the cashier and supervisor about it the bagger dude took my extra reuseable bags AND my purse out the cart to another. Um noooo dude...don't be touching my purse and moving it to a cart that is headed out the door. UGH! I was soooooo mad.
So I went to customer service for some rainchecks and she told me where the raisins were that I wanted so I took my groceries to the van and headed back in for another quick trip.
