what IS it WITH you PEOPLE??

so i went to the pix this morning to get my refund. you know - if you get $30 of groceries at publix, you can get 3¢/gal refund from the pix [which in case you don't know is the publix gas station]. you take your gas receipt and your grocery receipt and the clerk gives ya the 30¢ [if you have a 10gal tank like i do]. simple, right? i usually need gas on like thursday and get groceries on the weekend and then go by the pix again the next week like monday [meaning in this case wednesday] and get my refund.

so today i go in there and the clerk looks at the gas receipt and she goes, we are really not supposed to do them when they are this old.

i just looked at her.

she said, i will do this one but we aren't supposed to.

i looked at her some more.

she goes, okay so you need to come in when you get the gas and get your refund then.

so, i am like, i don't have a grocery receipt then.

then she is, well you just need to get your refund when you get your gas.

so i say, well i will just get my gas someplace else.

jeebs. this was over 30¢ so it doesn't mean that much to me and c'mon, it's got to mean even less to her. it's not her money, and it's just 30¢ and what IS the DEAL? like the pix patrol is going to come and audit her receipts? you really want to make me jump thru your hoops in this economy? you really want to treat me like a rule breaker instead of a valued customer? for petesake.

so i took out my gun & i shot her.

by which of course i mean, i emailed publix & tattled on her.
