Chew Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I was looking to bump the HBO "True Blood" thread, but the search feature isn't working and I didn't wanna start a new one... Search not working for anybody else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I'm going to go Samuel L. Jackson on the next person that asks me if I want to get a rewards card at the store. Every damn store does this now. It's so irritating, especially when they persist. If I really want your monkeyfighting rewards card, I'll either ask for it at the register, or at your Monday to Friday customer service counter. It's either that, or I 'm just going to interrupt them and say "No" before they even finish their sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He or she is just doing a job. They're required to ask every single customer every single time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On second thought, I might not stop there... I may just burn the entire building down while I'm at it... He or she is just doing a job.

ixcuincle Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Yes. I get asked every time if I want a CVS rewards card. I tell them no, and they ask again the next time I go. It's no big deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I'm not sure what you're saying. If you mean they ask a second time immediately after you've said no, obviously that's silly. If you mean they ask again the next time you come in, yes, they're required to do that. I take it you haven't worked in chain retail, at least not lately?

Botched Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I used to always decline the rewards cards, but lately I've been saying yes. Some of them don't even require a card, just a phone #, which can be a fake. I save some decent money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsmarydu Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Kohls is the worst. I start shaking my head "no" as I'm approaching the cashier, and say, "Don't even ask..." (while smiling), "...I'm on the 'cash only' train" and they usually laugh it off and understand! (I only drop the smile if they persist with the "but you get 20% off today's purchases" line.) That's when they get advanced education on interest rates & such. Pretty much kills it for everyone behind me in line too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renaissance Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I always say no to the rewards card and last time I was at CVS the guy asked if I had one and I said no so he just handed me one. Lol. As long as I don't have to give personal information they can track all they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I hate cvs. I was trying to get water outside at those water stations and it was raining so I was in a hurry. The machine not taking my dollar, so I go inside. Ask the cashier for change for a dollar. She refused. She said I have to ask to ask my manager, I yelled then ask him. She then gave me my change. She mean mugged me as I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all your years of following the Redskins through all that suckage I wouldn't take the chance. I'd just make a flight out Monday and meet them in HI. On the miniscule chance they make the Super Bowl, no way I would miss it. Or you could pay a little more and get a ticket you can change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
