Damn it, I forgot what I was going to post :(

 

*digs in memory*

 

Are you fed up with shops overcharging you sneakily for stuff (charging more at the till than the price on the side of the shelf)? Are you fed up with shops not taking off special offers and hoping people won't notice it? Are you fed up with dodgy trolleys not going in the direction you want them to go?

 

Because I am fed up with all 3 of those things and more.

 

This is random isn't it, but I don't freaking care tonight :P

Do you also hate when the wheels of the trolley get caught up against something and you walk right into that bar at the bottom of the trolley?

i end hitting the wheels :uhoh: (spanish solution for when machines don't work properly i guess :lol: )

 

once it was on the wrong direction and it ended hitting the door of the shop... :uhoh: the door even moved of its place. :o

I hate when I find an awesome shirt or jeans on the discount rack, and when they scan it in the computer it turns out it's not on sale and it's like $700,000 or something ridiculous like that.

Cleverly placed by the shop staff or left there by a customer, so you think it's in the sale, but if you look at the price label you will find it's not in the sale.

 

My favourite was at Asda over new year, they had an offer on super noodles (something like buy 5 for £2,50), a whole shelf of noodles with all the various flavours, seems about right your allowed to pick any 5 from the range. However in the middle of the shelf of the noddles were 'family packs' which were not in the promotion, which caught people out because they didn't see the small print.

 

I managed to win the customer services person over and got the family pack noodles in the promotion :)

We've got heads on sticks.

 

Rats and children follow me out of their homes ;)

 

I hate automatic doors which are always too slow to react.

I hate when I push on a pull door or pull on a push door.

:p i'm not a vandal, it was the wheels fault not mine. :\

 

oh recently we went shopping and we were close to forget about a promo... lucky that the cashier told us about it... so i had to go in a rush to get the promo. :confused: i don't like those things, (have to go in a rush to do things)

Dodgy promotions:

 

Some teacakes in Tesco, buy 1 packet for 50p, but you can buy 2 packets for the low low price of £1,50 :P

 

Bread, you can buy a loaf for a pound, but you can buy 3 loafs in a promotional deal for £3, wow.

 

Some shaving foam, buy one for £2, but you can buy 2 for £1,50.

I hate when I push on a pull door or pull on a push door.

 

Doing that makes me feel so stupid. :uhoh:

I do that at work, a lot :(

I used to do it at school alot.

The I received this wise piece of advice.

 

When you're using doors that lead to an exit or towards and exit they will be push doors. Just think of if there was a fire and you had to get out, it would be faster to push than pull.

 

And now I don't make that mistake nearly as often.

here doors are automatic, i mean those ones that open themselves when they detect someone is about to cross them. :thinking:

 

but lol each time my dad goes to the bank he never remember that doors open the other way round as they usually do, and always pull when should push and the other way round. :p is fun at times, but other times is really annoying...

 

but worst doors are train ones... :dozey: you push a button and it opens, the problem is that it last few opened and is really annoying when you have to cross the door with a trolley or things like that, it always gets stucked :dozey:

 

edit: wait i forgot about uni door, it ways gets stucked (and the ones i use are in-doors, that are on a big stair that communicates all the floors, and which suppousely are emergency doors which should never be stucked :dozey: )

 

i could wrote a library about me and doors. :confused:

 

once i got stucked at the doctors and he had to come to open the door for me, that was so annoying.

The doors on the SWT fleet have sensors which stop the doors closing when something is in the way.

Makes sense.

 

I get it wrong all the time. Hopefully not anymore.

 

 

As for shops I do find it pretty annoying. Happened to me at Tesco's the other day because you were supposed to get 2 pizzas (2 for 1) for like £2. They charged me £3.50 for it. I then said I didn't want it. As I walked off the lady at the till complained to her colleague about stupid customers who weren't able to read prices. Apparently I was the third person who complained about it.

Stupid lady is stupid! :cheesy:

this is kind of a Murphy law:

  • if you have to open a push door, sure you'll pull it.
  • if you have to open a pull door, sure you'll push it.

But with doors, I think when I make the mistake, it's often because the direction the door opens in is an unusual way (ugh, bad wording).

that only happens with bank doors, they always go the other way than the usual doors, apparently to avoid robbers... :uhoh:

Don't moan at the checkout girl, go to customer services and moan at them, they will send someone to check and will come back with a report ;)

 

And sometimes they will give you something back on top
