All Purpose Rant Away Thread - 3.2.1 GO!

I'm starting to feel like any program/ system in the country that's meant to help is an absolute joke and the people running them should actually live like a person who's trying to get help from said program/system and then tell us if they think it's really working.

So long as it's for several weeks/months without any back-up like savings to help.

I loathe politicians and the like saying "Oh any-one can live on paltry amount of money for a week." Which you can if you have savings or no immediate emergency outgoings like needing urgent car repairs or new shoes. It's the long term haul which is the problem.

Who the hell does that? In the middle of a grocery store? Thinks "I want to try this, I'll open it, take a swig then close it and put it back on the shelf". Like really, c'mon people.

It's not even financial based programs that have me frustrated(thankfully I don't have to use them but they don't work either), but things like our mental health system, legal system and child protection system. They don't work, don't help/protect and in the end they fail they exact same people they're trying to help.

Today the Universe must be using a card with spades because I had to deal with irrational family member accusing me of holding on to a form he and sibling last handled. Cue wordstorm and angry exchange. World won't stop if he loses his driver's licence (about time anyway).

Ok I figured I will post this one because it piss me out and made me angry:A Sibling of mine asked me why I still do couponning and it is a lost of my time and I dont need to do some,.,.....First I love that hobby,Two yes I save money and I have a full fridge and freezer do you?It is a tool I am using ,you dont need to use it if you dont want but stop bugged me about this.

I typed up a whole brag and the page crashed. I don’t feel like typing it all up again so I guess it just won’t get posted at all.

Yes, that's a frustrating encounter for you. Hope you don't have to see that person often-boundaries/limited or no contact has practical application when someone won't listen or acknowledge what you are saying.

Second that.

The wish that it wouldn't rain everyday I am sick and tired of the bloody rain! Getting soaked or finding ways of getting drenched.

I gave an example since the CSM didn't understand (a $3 Item with a $5 coupon), she said, yes we allow that (using in same transaction). I thought my luck had changed, but of course, nothing ever goes as planned. I got to the till and the cashier wasn't sure, so she called a CSM, THE SAME CSM. When she saw how much the overage was going to be, she said that we probably won't allow it and went off with the coupon to talk to the "Cash Manager" who denied the coupon saying it was TOO MUCH OVERAGE. So they allow it, but if you are too good a couponer, they deny you. So I told them I wanted nothing but the milk as I was in a rush and paid $2.97 for 2L.

So now I know, that this Walmart DOES NOT want to help you make your money go further while the other two in St.Kitts DO!!!!!!!

Why are you not complaining to Walmart on their Facebook page? They will help you as they will as you for specific details. I've only had a problem with WM twice in all the years I've been shopping there. I put it on their facebook page and I was personally called by the store manager on both occasions. They told me that if I ever had problems again, I could ask for him/her. Never had a problem with them again. Good luck! :-)

when i go out of my way to travel to a store just to see they are SOLD OUT of the sale items & NOT offering rain checks. ;-( thank u giant tiger!
