The staff always appears happy to be there while the Sam's/Walmart staff always seem like they are serving some kind of court ordered penance.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09016073653349776611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-22033916462521107742014-03-19T15:34:55.403-05:002014-03-19T15:34:55.403-05:00Nah, ha.. snicker... lol....

I would have walked out and gone somewhere else, even if I ended up paying more. I have never dealt with Sam's club, and have never had a problem at Costco.

I have a Mom who always taught me, "stand up for yourself, don't let people push you around." We just let our Sam's Club membership expire--even in Billings I would get so irritated when shopping there. We are die hard Costco fans.

I had always had a workout replacing the single start battery on my 94 Winnebago, but two weeks ago it was almost beyond my ability. So I feel your pain and exhaustion at getting those things removed and replaced. Hope they last another 3 years.

I wanted to renew my membership at the membership desk (seemed reasonable to me...) and they guy there kept saying I needed to just do it at a register. I had a $2 CostCo refund check. He was finally going to sell me the $55 regular membership, but I'd had the Executive membership, and when I'd gotten it in Olympia, WA they said that every year they would ante up the difference from what I got back (the $2) and the difference in the two memberships so I'd keep the Executive one every year essentially for the price of the regular. The guy kept saying I didn't 'need' the better one as I only got back $2. I wanted the new one. He said he'd have to give me the lower one for it to be 'free'. I said, then I'm going to give the the $55 to raise it. So, why not just give me the higher one for the $2 check and $55 as I asked the first time. He glowered. I said 'that's why I wanted to do this here, not at the register, I figured you folks would make it difficult'. In the end I walked out with what I wanted. <br /><br />Then it turns out they don't seem to carry the cat litter I wanted that was a staple in WA for the cats I had then. The new cat was the reason I was going through all that in the first place.Shadowmosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17302898633500446571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-51039300408030968692014-03-19T07:22:12.758-05:002014-03-19T07:22:12.758-05:00Remember, you can't fix stupid.Remember, you can't fix stupid.
