kmart sucks

i went to kmart to buy batteries. there was a cdoupon in the kmart circular this week saying the batteries wer 5.00 USD. i picked up the batteries went to the checkout and handed my coupon over. the lady swipes the coupon and says sorry it aint good. i said excuse me? its your coupon from your book which i picked up in your store. so she said well it doesnt take it. i said can you override it and she said no so she had to call someone so in kmart they dont use the intercom to call someone they just holler across the store in order to get someones attention. someone comes over after several hollerings and looks at the coupon and tries to figure out why the stupid coupon wouldnt work then a 2nd cashier comes over to add her 2 cents. so there are several people looking at the coupon and the batteries well the coupon says 4 batteries how many are in here hmmm 4? yes and it says its good for duracell and these are duracellhmm abnd what size are these. ( now mind you the coupon says every size s usable with this coupon) so i pointed out that the letter in the corner of the package is the size of the battery and not just the letter of the abc they randomly decided to put on that particular package. so this 2nd person swipes the coupon and tells me it wont take, i asked her to oiverride the system and she told me she couldnt . i ased why we would call her to "help" if she couldnt so we called for a third person. this third person was explained the situation by myself in possible a curt manner and i asked very nicely if she can override the system which she said she shouldnt because obviously ts a bad coupon or the product is wrong because otherwise it would work but she'll override it for me this one time. when i looked at my receipt instead of giving the batteries for the price of 5.00 USD the moron took off $5.00USD of the price of 6.00 USD so i ahd to pay 1.36 USD. so to sum it up 2 cashiers two managers later i walked out paying 1.36 for 5.00 batteries thank you kmart for your absolute ineptitude

  • I like that you specified that it was USD as opposed to NIS

  • there is a fast food place here that we had 10% off coupons from. They could never figure out how to get the 10% off the price and always offered us free chips instead. They finally stopped the coupon...
