I remember how my dad was completely furious the first time our local department store required him to show his ID to write a check. "WHAT?!?!? I've shopped here for years and now you don't trust me?"JT88Keyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14030012435363552208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794285200812210278.post-28890995225065203392012-04-18T06:55:24.315-07:002012-04-18T06:55:24.315-07:00With Prime you can even come pretty close to scrat...With Prime you can even come pretty close to scratching the instant gratification itch. It's pretty amazing how a company that's whole reason for being should be to give folks what they want can do such a bad CS job. <br /><br />I was in a department store the other day picking up some lotions the Mrs wanted. She had actually ordered stuff online for me to pick up at the store which is very close to my work. They only let her order 1 set of the stuff online. Since she said it was a really good deal I thought there my be some limit on how much you could buy at once. She wanted more so after picking stuff up at customer service I want to the fancy lotions counter figuring I would just buy another from their stock. One of the sales ladies saw my obvious clueless husband look and asked me if she could help. I showed her what I was looking for and she took me over to where we could find it ... Except it wasn't there. Then she took me over to the register to look for more "in the back". It turned out that they were completely out of stock (so I guess that explains why my wife could only order one). <br /><br />So here's the good part. The lady offers to order more ... and have them shipped to my home for free! I was going to buy one extra set, I bought two. She also gave me her card and told me any time I needed something I should call her up and she'd either arrange for in store pickup or free shipping home. It was pretty clear that she wanted to make it easier for me to spend money in their store, not harder. Now guess who's going to get a lot of business around my wife's b-day, anniversary etc?<br /><br />Not for nothing but I suspect there may be an advantage to hiring a group other than snot nosed teenagers as your sales staff.Missingflopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05305775958095793633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794285200812210278.post-17886213099611820742012-04-18T05:16:01.599-07:002012-04-18T05:16:01.599-07:00I usually buy all of this kind of stuff online thr...I usually buy all of this kind of stuff online through Amazon Prime except when my instant gratification A.D.D. gene won't allow me to wait. This time it was only because I had a gift certificate. My kid will be happy though. He's likely going to get a new basketball hoop from Scheel's out of the deal instead.JT88Keyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14030012435363552208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794285200812210278.post-54415252785109179812012-04-18T05:14:10.801-07:002012-04-18T05:14:10.801-07:00Thanks, Josie.
