i went to circuit city, bought something and was not stopped to have my receipt checked.

[AlCzervik]

they did however ask me for my name and email address at the register to which i replied "No".

1. I thought

that shopping at Circuit City was a bannable offense here in the Lounge?

[AlCzervik]

2. dunno, looks like i'm on the list now.

[Gormy Cuss]

3. Celebrate! Go to the Olive Garden.

;)

[AlCzervik]

5. i just looked, the nearest OG is 12.58 miles away.

[MrCoffee]

4. asshole! they were just doing their job, you have no right to withhold that info

don't you know anything about direct marketing? they're trying to ensure that their weekly advertisements are having an impact.

you dick.

[AlCzervik]

6. guilty. i also used cash which i think shocked the cashier.

[MrCoffee]

7. they should have tazed you on the spot

[AlCzervik]

8. agreed.

9. A friend of mine bought something from there last week.....

something for his PC, but when he got home he realized it wasn't compatible so he turned right around to take it back. After waiting in the line forever, he wasn't in the mood to hear about their huge restocking fee. "What are you talking about?" he said, "I'll go put the damn thing back on the shelf myself, if it's THAT big of a deal."

"That's the policy, sir. I can't do anything about it."

Next thing you know, he's practically screaming, "THAT'S IT, BABY- PINCH MY NIPPLES!!! YEAH, DO IT!!!" Every head in the store was turned that direction. Needless to say, they were shocked and urged him to lower his voice...

"Well, I'm sorry," he says, (still rather loudly) "That's just what I like when I'm being fucked, and you're sure as hell trying to fuck me!"

They couldn't give him his full refund fast enough... Just wish I had been there to see it in person!

[truedelphi]

10. Me too. That's reassuring. I mean he did leave there without being tazed or anything?

[SacredCow]

12. No tazing that I'm aware of.....

By that time, they were probably way too afraid of him.

[truedelphi]

15. If I can ever afford it, I'd like this guy as my body guard.

The Nipple! announcements are well worth a salary

[AlCzervik]

11. too bad it wasn't at the one i was today, would have made my visit way more entertaining.

[SacredCow]

13. You definitely need some kind of entertainment to stand in their lines....

at least, in the one here. They must have done studies on how to run a business inefficiently and ineptly....

[AlCzervik]

16. usually i just buy things online but i ad to go over to the pet store and Circuit city

was right there. they also asked me if i wanted insurance, i was buying some dvds, "No thank you".

[jberryhill]

14. But

They charge more for THAT than for the re-stocking fee.

At least at the Circuit City near me.

17. The last time I went to Circuit City I refused to show my receipt and

my family and I were shot at with automatic weapons by Circuit City security forces wearing black tactical gear and ski masks while rappelling from black v-22 Ospreys. The attack was swift and fearsome. And thanks to their night vision technology we were nearly gunned down and only barely managed to escape, after much senseless bloodshed and grievous losses, into the surrounding countryside.

We've been hunted like animals day and night ever since. Rarely finding so much as a moment of respite we've been finding what small refuge there is here in the hills with the indigenous folk who still survive, in despite of Circuit City's deliberate and systematic campaign of extermination, by clinging to the old ways, living off the land and traveling only at night trying to avoid the C.C.H.K.s (Circuit City Hunter Killers)as best we can.

I'm losing hope however as Circuits City's sinister agents seem to be closing in on us even as they block our every avenue of escape and soon will come the start of the rainy season and with it our doom.

If on some distant future day you find this tragic testament to or lives and our annihilation I implore you to never forget, never give up and NEVER show them your receipt!

LONG LIVE THE FIGHTERS!!!
