Acme

Yesterday I went to my neighborhood Acme located at
I purchased fall decorations for a city event, @ mums, 6pumkins, and 2 cornstalks. I asked the employee that was outside near the plants the price of the corn stalks because there was no sign present, he went inside and came back with a price 7$ each. I took the items into the store and paid for each item! I also told the cashier to add on 2 cornstalks because they were tied to a wall outside, he went out to check the prices, returned and rung up the items I paid $80.83. I went outside the store to retrieve the corn stalks, I struggled to get each 1 a loose because they were tied tight, customers took notice as they entered the store, there were no employees to help me! After I got the 2 corn stalks on the cart I pushed the cart towards my SUV, suddenly I heard voices yelling! Hey! Stop! Hey! I turned around and 2 white women were literaly running towards me yelling Did you even pay for all that stuff you have in that cart? I was shocked! people stopped loading their cars to watch to see what was going on! I yelled back What di you think Im stealing them? Heres my receipt! I thought you were running out to help me but your running out to accuse me of stealing? I showed them my receipt. Suddenly 1 women ran away the other offered to help me load my truck. I left embarressed and very upset! I turned back to the store about 15 minutes later angry, placed each item in a cart and returned them. I am a 66 year old African American women I have shopped at ACME for over 20 years! I have never in my life been accused of stealing anything! I am so hurt and upset! When I came in to return the items 1 of the ladies were laughing and stated I knew you were gonna come back and return everything! This is clearly a racist inappropriate move with no remorse and no respect for my feelings! My Family is so upset that I was treated so badly by your staff!
