WalMart Shopping ~ 1/14/09

Whew what a morning! It took me forever to check out! I went to the only open register to check out, which had 2 big buggies ahead of me. Not that big of a deal since it was early and I wasn't in a hurry.
But then another cashier asked me to come to the self check out and she'd help me. I told her I had several coupons and she assured me it would be fine.
Everything rang up fine, but halfway though my coupons, the machine went wacky and registered 6 times for 1 coupon. She tried & tried to fix it, but couldn't. So she called over another lady and when she tried to cancel out the coupon, she cancelled my whole transaction!
She was really embarrassed and apologetic.
So she took me to the front of the store to ring me up. First the hand scanner kept messing up. Then when she Finally had everything scanned, the coupons had trouble going through. After 45minutes or so, it was all said and done and time for me to pay using my debit card.
Then my debit card was declined! But the second time through, it was approved. I think the machine was tired, lol! By the end, there were 7 employees huddled around us, trying to help. It was a weird experience because they were all so nice & trying to help. WalMart employees usually give me a hard time.
So it was a aggravating yet pleasant experience.
No picture though, as I was worn out from it all.
