Pharmacy and beauty shops

Well it happened .... our favorite nightmare shop has been pared down from four departments to just pharmacy and beauty. The fee is $15 plus $! reimbursement. I haven't seen the new form as there are none in my area, but it sounds like they have seen the error of their ways. Wonders will never cease!

Good news!

In that case, I guess I'll try one.

My store usually only has two people working (pharmacy & register), so I still don't know how that would work.

ugh. I signed up for one that still has four.

Cancel it and see if it re-posts with two.

Hmm. If it's the shop of which I'm thinking, there are are two departments here, plus a general area and checkout. I did one just recently -- the most difficult thing about it for me was that the survey doesn't quite match the shopper experience, not to mention that it's redundant (like most of this MSC's shops). And yeah, the $1.00 reimbursement -- sure makes it worth it! NOT. The only reason the reimbursement is not as BIG a joke as their cosmetic shop is because you actually can find something for just a little bit more, though granted, something you likely don't need!

Well I rushed right out and grabbed one. Guess What!!! 4 departments! No, I'm not going to cancel and try again, I'll bite the bullet and do it. It's only a couple of blocks from the house and I'll do it on my way home from work, no biggie, it's just the idea I was getting a bargain and it wasn't!

False Advertising? fine print ? bait and switch? They are guilty of one of these. Good luck and don't be shy about asking for names.

Ya know, there are three of these drugstores in our immediate vicinity, and we are in at least one of them once a week. I have yet to see four employees in any of them. Glad I didn't sign up for these.

I had no clue which MSC this was until getting an email today. They must be having trouble getting them filled. The hilarious part was them referring to it as "fun" because we get to interact with someone in the so called beauty department. In my local store the employee in that department looks like a painted up 60 year old street walker and won't speak to me. When my uncle and I stopped in she was falling all over herself to help him. It is a pattern with her and I've had to witness it too many times.

If necessary, you can interact with the same employee in all departments, excluding the pharmacy.

Thanks for the tip, Nicely. If these ever get bonused, maybe I'll think about taking one.
