So, apparently, I'm a scammer.

That's just rude. If they are having problems with fake printables, then they should simply have said, "I'm very sorry but we are not able to accept the printed coupon because we have been having difficulties getting reimbursed." We all know stores are not required to take coupons but in my opinion, when they do decline them, they should do so politely. I would call head office over the way the message was conveyed. That's not acceptable.

you should definitely complain to HQ about this CSM and cashier. my experience when I have had to call HQ, they do talk to the rude person ( or the manager does this). All you have to do is tell the manager when they call, that these people should be made aware of their mistakes, because you really feel you as a customer should never be made to feel this way again or any other couponer.

Declining it is one thing, her remark about " go ahead, I won't get in trouble " was the part I disliked. It was a dare!

why not print out the email from pita break to show them? could have asked for the store manager too

Couponers have to develop a tough skin to keep going.. It seems that shops bring down 3 ways.. 70% of cashiers are adequate.. they do w hat needs to be done, check if they get confused, but overall just get the basic job done.. 20% seem to think coupons are a way to rip off their store, they are sometimes outright hostile and try to find ways to deny you using the coupons.. the other 10% (being generous , more like 3%) are happy for you, with a few of them wanting to do the same thing.

When my sister or daughter goes with me, I usually get a comment from them that the cashier was mean.. I don't notice that lol.. as long as they take the coupons as stated, I kinda ignore the rest. If they are confused, I ask them to check with a csm.. Occasionally the CSM doesnt have a clue.. if necessary.. I just go back another time when that person is not there.. I know they are wrong but there are times when you have to retreat a bit to win the war.

It's hard not to get upset and frustrated when they question a coupon in a rude way. I try to remind myself that its not personal even though it often feels that way..

I don't think the attitudes are going to change any time soon.. the only thing we can do is try and change our reactions to them.. In the beginning I had a few experiences that made me want to quit.. now its just a battle of wills loll

Don't let the bad experiences wear ya down.. its so worth it..

I printed the coupon 2 weeks ago, I just kept forgetting to use it. I delete emails either right away, or within a few days. I hate clutter..

Couldn`t have said it better myself. He got reps for that lol


I feel bad for Walmart employees really. Theres so many of them that get treated like %%^# and then you get these people who obviously just don`t care about their job.

[KK7]

She is just being a PITA ; ) Chin up don't let her get you down..do as the above has said either call head office of Walmart or Call the company for the coupon

[GoddessDigi]

I emailed WalMart HO, and sent an email to Ozery, as everyone suggested.

Sorry you had to go through that! I read on an American Blog someone was confronted with that accusation and she had before and she said you want to accuse me, charge me, charge me now...they backed down and she said you are not not well take my damn coupon.

Pita Break is so good at yearly sending those 5.00 coupons when you sign up-I get those once a year and always forget to use them, I printed them too and unfortunately the save.ca ones when printed I agree do look a little shady. I printed the Fructis ones and you can barely read the amount of the coupon. Definately do not let that go.

A few times when I had to use the ADVIL 2.00 print coupons I offer, give me a computer, I will print them off for you right now...They shut up. The bad ones make it worse for the rest of us.

When you write H.O. let them know that several people have the same problem with this location therefore affecting sales and profit.

If someone accuses you of being a scammer either directly or implied, it is my opinion, you should then request to speak to the manager immediately!
That and I think people need to work on either 'Scary Stare' or 'Crazy Look' to help encourage flakes from even bothering you.

[GoddessDigi]

Oh boy...
Well, the little townhouse complex on the other side of the street of us is having a Garage Sale (all the houses at once), and...guess who's sale I stopped at? The cashier's. Yup. And she even had some toys for the kids I would have gotten..if they weren't from her. Maybe it's petty, but I didn't feel like 'helping' someone out, after they call me a scammer..
