My first clearance event at dollar general store's I intended to make a all day event out of it going from store to store in my areas. Yesterday I thought I was going to have a great time. I didn't to say the least. I went to 3 states and 5 stores and a total of 8 and a half hours adventure.
First"store # 06213, was in hurley, virginia. Friendly. And my first disappointment. The store manager said they were not aware of any clearance event for this week. 65 items, I spent a total of $62.13. No addition 50% off.
Second" store #07367 phelps, kentucky. And my second disappointment. They was having a 3 day clearance event and the signs said addition 50% off. My 2 shopping carts was heaping over with lots of my finds. I had fun till I got to the check out. The girls was not friendly. Hardly even spoke. I keep asking was they taking 50% off the total sale of by the items. No answer. 203 items. Total was $248.10 I asked for the manager she was talking to a customer. I did not receive additional 50% off. No manager came. I was so discouraged and my excitement was gone.
Third"store#11275 was not friendly. Matewan, w. Va. They was having the clearance event no additional 50% off.3rd disapointment.92 items $126.02
Forth" store delbarton, w. Va #17000 35 items 4 sales total$53.82 nice employee and very super clean organized store! No additional 50% off.
Fifth store#09838 belfry, ky. Friendly cashier 42 items $77.97. No additional 50% as advertised again.
14 items was not a clearance item "425" items was clearance items. Total cost for all items I purchased was $316.00
I should of at least save $150.00 with the additional 50%
I'm so very disappointed. I have been waiting weeks for this clearance event and it didn't plan out like I expected. Why put signs up saying addition 50% off, if the stores are not going to "honor" what they advertise.
Sincerely
