Now, my story isn't over. I like going to Target on Fridays, as this is when my fave cashier works. Well, she got all but 5 of my coupons to go through, big surprise, it was all my Target coupons! I always have trouble with these! I asked if she could type them in and she then responded with "We aren't allowed to do that, but you can bring it over to guest services and see if they can scan them". Okay I thought, I wasn't about to get on her bad side, as she is one of the nicest cashiers I have run into.

I paid for my purchase ( at this time, my total is $25.35 plus taxes.) and made my way to guest services, where there was standing the one clerk who has ALWAYS given me, not only a hard time, but attitude. (This girl really needs an adjustment.) I explain the situation, and what the cashier had said to me, she begins to try and scan them, and nothing. She then puts that attitude on of hers, and tells me there is nothing she can do. So I challenged, and she called, one of the managers over.

He looks over my receipt, and actually asked me if I "stacked" to which I replied, yes of course. He responds by inquiring if I had seen how to do this on a blog. I said yes, He then proceeds to tell the several clerks that if a coupon does not scan to punch in the numbers. Well they all stated the same sentence, "Well that's not what Chris said to do, if a coupon doesn't scan we are not to accept it." The manager, who's name was Craig, was now waiting on me, said that is what they ARE to do. He handed me my $5.00 and apologized for the inconvenience. WOW! This is one of the few times I actually walked out of Target with a grin on my face!
