November 26, 20187 yr I'm getting increasingly annoyed by shops either not giving me a receipt so I have to ask for it, or saying "do you want your receipt." If I get home and notice my cottage cheese is out of date or my bacon was checked out at £3.50 when it had a sign saying £2.50 how do I take it back. Their first comment will be "do you have your receipt." What's with this not giving a receipt as standard nonsense!! I feel like I should start a "we want our receipt" campaign. ???
November 26, 20187 yr I agree Lilly. I try so hard to check things at the store. Now I shop for my parents too so it would take me forever to watch them at the store. The stores do not rotate their stock so the older items go first.
November 26, 20187 yr I also agree, it's such a pain I the ass to get home and see something expired after I just bought it that day ? Most the time it isn't worth the gas to return it so it ends up in the trash, grrrrrr

I assumed it was because they were too busy asking for more personal information...the receipt just kinda got lost in the shuffle somewhere. They want a phone number, e-mail address, etc. Then they want you to join the rewards club. It never ends... I'm paying with cash. Take the money. Give me my change and receipt and let's both move on with our lives. And since this is the curse thread: Hey Walgreens...mind your phucking business!

I use their drive thru to pick up my elderly parents meds. I ask the lady in the window what medication I am getting and she claims she cannot disclose that to me, even though she knows me and will be handing it through the window to me. I handle all my parents meds and they receive discounts so I want to know what I am paying for. This was the pharmacy I was at when I posted my SOS a while back. They drive me nuts!

After his double bypass surgery, they put him on some new medications and took him off of some medications he was taking before. His cardiologist sent an updated list of prescriptions. He took a copy of his updated prescriptions to them himself. Yet, somehow, they are still confused as to which medicines he takes now and the ones he no longer takes. If the old man's blood pressure wasn't running a bit high before, it was after he dealt with the Walgreens pharmacy.
November 28, 20187 yr Hubby's been on his camping trip all of four hours now and has called me three damn times already, grrrr. What good is a break when you keep calling! ?

What good is a break when you keep calling! ? You are lucky. My husband can't go to the corner store (5 min. away) without calling me for something. Husbands and cell phones can be a curse! You must be in nice weather for him to go camping. We wanted to take are RV to my nieces wedding on Dec. 7th but I think we will be pushing it. Enjoy your time!
November 28, 20187 yr @Linda Thomas you are so right about husband's and cellphones, he's glued to his and it's a flip phone like mine lol. I could just imagine if he had a smartphone ? And except for the two inches or more of rain we're supposed to get in the next two days, the weather is still nice here. High 60's to low 70's during the day We sure need the rain though and it's really helping are hardworking firefighters

I've tried to show him how much easier it is with the T9 words but he won't use them lol.
November 28, 20187 yr 7:45 am, first call of the day. Hmmmm maybe we should take bets on how many calls I'll get today. Oooh, or maybe a poll lol

Aw we really know that they love us and can't live without us. They just don't realize how we can live without them for periods of time!

When I go to Florida I don't call him. I need a break dang it lol. Ok so @WeegieWoman, he said "Hi, don't forget to mail those letters for me and call me when you're up and about to handle a little business". So, I will need to call him to get out a proposal that HE lagged on so the lady doesn't get too pissy. So weegie says 3 (way too low weegie) and Linda says 5 (pretty good guess). I'm going to say since they started at 7:45 am, 7 calls for today.....
November 28, 20187 yr ^^^ Look on the bright side .... at least you don't have to make him breakfast today
November 28, 20187 yr Make breakfast and mow the lawn? You definitely are in a different country than me! Call number 2, @WeegieWoman, you're going to lose I'm afraid lol Edited November 29, 20187 yr by jillar

November 29, 20187 yr I think I should have went higher too. Just got a hang up call and I suspect it was him lol. I'm pretty sure there will be a call 6 because he'll want to know if that big storm cloud he saw brought rain ha,ha ? Edited November 29, 20187 yr by jillar
November 29, 20187 yr Call #6 and just like I suspected, called to see if that storm cloud opened up over us lol. Sorry @Linda Thomas but you lose. And while I'm typing this call #7 came in so looks like I'll be losing too since its only 5:30 pm! ?
November 29, 20187 yr Yep call #8! Ugh, he's been drinking so the calls could be in the teens lol. So I lose too?
