Now I can make my "Aluminum Foil Helmet" to keep out the alien beams! SCOP

The title is bigger than the SCOP!
I picked up a small roll of aluminum foil at SDM today - tag said .88 - reg. price .99. It rang in at .99.
What a kerfuffle! I asked the cashier for a SCOP. She said they didn't do that.
I pointed to the Standard Code of Practice sticker on her till. She said it was only for items over $10.
I read to her the rule. She called over someone else.
That person went to check the tag. She said - give it to her for .88.
I said, "Shouldn't it be free?" Second cashier had to come over and over-ride it.
Then she had to make a copy of my receipt before I left.
But I DID get it for free!
Do these people GET IN TROUBLE if they have to give out a SCOP?

no they don't hun.
however.. I DO wanna see pic of your helmet ;)

I wanna see the Helmet too!!! :lolsign:

You know there is a whole tinfoil hat subculture on SC.

Oh and now there's a coupon for that too.

Should have moved to another cashier aisle in the first place as this cashier is a total pain (and slow as well). If anyone from Garden Basket is on this site, please take note.
Tried a couple of times to explain that romaine is indeed a type of lettuce but she wasn't budging. Although I am a calm, easy-going type, inside I was fuming at the ignorance. Think I maybe even said a bad word under my breath.

Oh, maybe I can go SHOPPING for a tin-foil hat!!!!
I was on a site today - and I had to pick the lanuage I wanted to communicate in. I figured "French" - "English" - but there was a whole list - get this - INCLUDING "Klingon". I think they've been watching that show on TV who's name I can't remember where the very intelligent guys all live together - oh yes, "The Big Bang Theory."

oh avon, honestly they really need to have a few more training meetings or something about the whole process of scop. I was laughing as you kept correcting them. Enjoy making your hat!

Enjoy your new tinfoil hat and good for you for the SCOP.

Avon i don't think the tinfoil hat will work on aliens beams truthfully:lolsign:good job getting your scop

Too funny about the hat, but truthfully, I hate having to argue with staff about something that is right in front of their faces. Even here in Quebec, I have realized that a lot of people may be ripped off by not knowing the law.

Good for you for standing your ground.

Glad you got the SCOP - our SDM is great at doing them, often before I ask.

Rinds me of that movie cone heads
Lol
Ad for the scop, the people who work there probably think they will get in trouble or weren't trained properly. Hassel but glad you stuck to your guns.

Good for you for standing your ground. As for the tin foil hats, that's minor. I watched a Repo show where they were repoing a trucker's big rig. The WHOLE INSIDE was covered in tin foil!. Including all the windows!
